has anybody mounted fujatives true center? i have mine mounted core center and i'm gonna get a new pair and want to have them mounted true center? how are they true center since they have a funky flex pattern and such?
Fuck, that's what I told my shop and they were like uhh no core center is the farthest up we do (they said K2 made core center where pep would ride them). Then after I got them re mounted to core center (I thought this was true center, after talking to them) I was like wtf there is way more tip than tail and they were like well this is core center and true center would have been ever farther back. Needless to say they still ride great switch and all that jazz but I was pissed at them, they also said if I mounted them true center it would be a really squirly ski and would ski like shit so I just left and it was all good. This shop has really good people but some of the actually people that do mounting.waxing, tuning are a bunch of fuck heads. I didn't get mad after the mount because this shop is really good to me.
i had some fujatives then i sold them.. i rode my bro's PE's and i thought they were way better then the fujative, more pop and response, i liked the fujative but i thought the PE was better over all and it is more versitile.
well i mounted foward so that if i get bigger boots and move the heel, it will center up a little, and then foward for grabs, and its just more fun to ski switch with more tail to put foward.. i would definately suggest true center if not foward from that..
Yeah, I mount my own skis, so I measure tip to tip and pinpoint DEAD center...but I haven't mounted my new Fujis yet. However, I have an older pair of Fujatives (red and grey ones, 06-07 I think) which I did mount true center, and I love them there, nice and buttery, great for park, and no problems outside of it either. I would go true center, they are basically butter skis, so I think you'll have the most fun with them at true center.
Yeah, 169 sound pretty short for you...but if you're looking for the same ski, I remember seeing brand new 07 fujis on a few different sites for like 150ish a while ago....you should look around, they're pretty cheap.
