Mounting moment wildcat 108

[Thegenericskier]

I’ve recently acquired a pair of wildcats and it’s gonna be my first non dedicated park ski and I’ve got no clue where to mount it, currently thinking about mounting 2-3 cm back

Any specific reasons you want to go further back? Recommended -6cm is a sweet spot for most

i’d go with 2 cm infront of the recommended line. that’s my go to for more directional skis. i think the rec on that is -6 so than you would be -4 which is pretty perfect for a directional ski in my opinion.

I have my 108 cats at -5. I would NOT go any more forward. I would go rec or -5. The ski and land switch perfectly fine as is.

Rec is the way. Moment does their homework for a reason.

How’s -6 for sw skiing and general park skier on big mountain skiing

How’s -6 for sw skiing and general park skier on big mountain skiing

Absolutely fine. If you’re doing way more park then I’d say -5 like the Wildcat 101. But for a great balance -6 works.

Have skied the 108 at recommended and +2. Rec is smoother turning, chargier, pretty much better in every way. If you wanted to mount behind rec you'd be better suited with the Countach.

+3...split the difference between recommended and center. Or +2...do whatever feels good.

My 101s are -2.5cm, I’d go -3 or -4. Favorite skis, they’re on their 3rd season and still are fun af

Haven’t rode wildcats but my Kartel’s are mounted at rec at -4 and they feel very centered still and ski switch great. The -6 recommended point won’t feel too far back, maybe go -5 like some were saying but recommended will typically ski best.

Stoked for you picking these up! They’re gonna be a blast at big sky. It’s so so nice having a non park ski that will last for many seasons and can have nice edges.

Oh my freshness, went -4

Moment's recommended line is always spot on. For most other brands, I call the recommended line the Dad Mount, but Moment nails it

Went from skiing centre mounted park skis to the Rec line on my Wildcats, no regrets at all

I’m 205 5’11 , thinking of going 190, smart move?

I’d say either or, I’m around 5’10”

I'd say -3 is good for a non-dedicated park ski. At least it is where I ski mine Wildcats 101. To me, it gives a feeling of little more shovel to push on, not very long tails, but imbalance is still not very noticeable while throwing tricks.
