Obviously it is where the 4 hole pattern is, but where does that sit on the ski from core center? +2, +3? Just curious because I am going to mount some p14s on them.

Not sure of the actual number but here is my advise. I have had 3 pairs of mo'ships all mounted at the recommended boot centre. This is the place to mount. If you are using them purely to jib push it slightly forward. This will make them seem very squirrly out of the stunt park. Its a great ski for versatility mounted normal. I rail slid one pair and they felt fine. I am biased as I believe ski manufactuers have a mount point on pupose. The sidecut works this way and by mounting too far forward the whole feel of the ski is comprimised. I'm sure I will get slagged by a few centre mount fools but if you want a ski like that get the Invader. Hope that helps.(prob not)

i agree with jet. i've skied the flites plenty and if you want them to perform out of the park too, just mount at the suggested point. if you do, they are a SICK ski everywhere from the park to pow. plus, the ski is soooo light, if you are not center mounted, the swing weight is still minimal and the weight difference is not enough to affect you on rails.
anyway, if you are a super park hound, maybe mount even with the front set of holes, but i'd suggest mounting right where they were meant to be.

i know you got answers...but if you dont have line bindings i would mount them so that the 4 holes in the center are resting directly under your sole....line made the skis and knows how they are intended to be mounted

hmmm... Maybe I was kidding. You honestly think people call it a stunt park on purpose? My favorite part of the stunt park is the u-shaped fun ditch.
