The Michael Jordan, the Babe Ruth, The Wayne Gretzky of Newschoolers.com idiots needs no introduction.... but here\\\'s one anyways. John Andrew Steward, a rich kid from Georgia, will not hesitate for a moment to tell you exactly what he\\\'s thinking (and I use that term loosely). His over 2000 posts make him one of the most prolific retards on our list, and he\\\'s become something of a legend on this website, representing the ever-growing intellectually devoid section of the membership here at NS.com. In fact, when the Golden Wheelchair award was first conceived, there was some talk of naming it after him, as a dedication. Also among his qualifications are his being named so often to Crystal-Needs-A-Park\\\'s honorary hall of fame for stupid posts, that the proprietor was forced to abandon the project: Atlantaski simply flooded it too quickly. Further, he had more entries into the original Hall of Fame for Stupid Posts than any other member of Newschoolers.com. Though he went into temporary retirement a few months ago, he has recently returned with a vengeance and, far from missing a beat, has stepped his stupidity up to new heights, recently capturing a GW award for mocking Trevor Peterson. He is fully deserving of his place near the top of this list

 
ok, if you dont plan on skiing out west get them big air, theyre not exactly the best jib ski and mine delammed quickly. make sure to center mount them, theyre really good at holding turns at highspeed and are pretty stable when youre landing.

alright thanks, i dont plan on using them on rails just yet, im poor and want to keep them nice... i got concepts for that

 
totally, maybe mine suck and are shitty, but most mad trix are indestructable, id mount them big mtn though bc youll get more all mtn performance from them and will have a hella big tip on the back too

yo dude have them centred at the ski, like have your foot in the middle of the E set on big mountain thats how i had them they were sick. I use my old ones for jibbing but i got the new ones and they so sick. Also, the old ones are pretty dope for jibbing so i dont know what other guy is talkin about all i do right now is jib.

TRY EVERYTHING EVEN IF IT MEANS KICKING YOUR OWN ASS
 
make sure you mount them big mountain tip forward, and put the bindings forward of the recomended spot. Mine are mounted +1cm right now, but dont do that, its really far back, im getting mine remounted at +8.5

FUCK BIGGIE
 
I wouldn't do what Atlantaski said. I ski in New England all year and I mounted them big mountain. I went big mountain and set them +3 ahead of the line they give you for that setting. Perfect. They absolutely rip, and are good in the air. Maybe a little heavy for jibs but you get used to them. The purpose of the big air setting is only for riding switch easier and if you plan on riding park most of the time. And, if you plan on riding park most of the time to begin with, you have picked the wrong ski. Go big mountain and set them forward 2 or 3 cm and you will not regret it...they handle awesome that way. I also go out west once a year and they are a mean pow ski that way as well.

We'll have you dead pretty soon.
 
Big Mountain +3, and don't listen to Atlantaski, he always badmouths his skis... no one else on here has anything bad tos ay about them. Mine are indestructable. If you like them stiff, they're a great, stable ski.

big moutain forward...+6cms

trust me...

work to ski...but only if you ski to work. The simple equation to skibumming 101

...i didnt do it

 
I used to have em, Big mountain +2 forward, they were great for all mountain. Never go with the big air orientation, unless you are a moron.

ATLANTASKIS's skis aren't that bad, well at least before he went to ski camp. They just have damage to the topsheet, althiugh I do remmber him saying something about edge damage form rails at ski camp. But, yeah, andrew, stop talking shit about your skis. Your parnts are nice enough to buy them for you, so don't talk shit. You can do that when you pay for them yourself, which you should do, because I know you have the money to so that.

 
yeah i mess around in the park alot but i thought these would be good as an all-around ski, im thinking about doing like most of u said and mounting them big mountain +3 or so, thanks for you help

 
Heh, I just got a pair of MTs as well and was just about to ask opinions on mounting, so this was timely. Planning to use them for a mix of all mountain riding and park (non rails, I have a pair of Scratches for that), so I think I'm gonna go with 2 or 3 forward from big mounatin then. Thanks.

'180 net grab = NOT a new trick!'

Have you ever seen a little kid slide back down the inrun of a kicker without going over? This is why parents shouldn't dump their kids off anywhere near the park...
 
I have a pair mounted big air forward, actually. They're great for switch skiing.

what ever you do mount them center. But as I've learned in this thread thats just an opinion. I hated mine, I don't know what they were set out but it wasn't dead center, and i would have liked them a lot more if they were center.

 
always mount them big mountian forward...how many normal skis have a larges tip then tail? non that i can think of. Big Mtn. +3 is what i have mine mounted at
