I know there are a few topics on this but i still wanted more info.

I ski about 80-90% park when im on the east coast here and about 70% in the west when i go big mountain and everything else. Im about 5' 7"-8" ish and about 138 on 171 Ar6s. Where should I mount them? Ive heard -2 from true center and maybe even true center. i really like the idea of true center but i also want it sound performance wise. It also seems kinda strange to mount on a place other than where it's recommended(its very obvious by looking at the side of the ski as to where the bindings are meant to be mounted)How far back is the reccomended area on them from true center?

so yeah suggestions pleaseee
 
if you're doing all mountain riding too, go a 2 back from center. true center is best for park riding.
 
I have the 171's and i mounted -2 from true. I was out west at breck like 3 weeks ago and they don't ski that well when there is snow a lot of ...if it is groomed, then no problems at all. If you are riding in a lot of snow, the extra tail really grabs and it is hard to ski...

just go true and get a second pair of skiis for freshies
 
haha i dont have that type of money to shell out like that unfortunatly.. but it sounds like im leaning more towards -2.

so does anyone know where the reccommended spot is in comparison to true center?
 
I dont know what recommend is becuase since that changes so much from company to company its a pretty worthless piece of information, I just go by how far from true center I want. I have my ar6s at -2 and I'd recommend it. I rode them for like 22 days out west too like 80% out of the park and loved 'em. still great in park too.
 
i just want to have a comparison in terms of where true center mounted would sort of look like.

do think i could see of pic of where -2 mounting looks like?

what size ski do u have?
 
Reccomended point is -5 from center. I mounted mine at +2.5 from the reccomended and am very happy with it for just about everything.
 
if your going to be doing mostly park, you arent going to want little tailss so i would def just go with -2 from center...plus thats pretty much wehre the whole armada team skis them
