you don't need to give up pot for a year. Just 32 days, lots of excercise and alcohol

it also depends on what kind of skier you are

Centermount. You're gonna ski mostly park and "freetstylin" so center is where its at.

fuck tru center that's for all mountain groomers. get them mounted like 2 steps in front of tru center like Sammy Carlson so you can do tru nose grabs easier.....a bunch of fucking amatures.

I live in a place far far away, where on occasion the telly tubbies will come to play....and that's when Ma gets out the shotgun. Damn critters climb in our gutter system all the time.

best make a new name now that you are sporting the salomons.

no reason to go center unless the ski is a true twin...otherwise you are fucking up the flex of the ski. Only mount center if A) Your skis are true twins and your a park skier only B) You cant buy a turn and skid everywhere, cause it wont mater were you mount em C) If you dont mind fucking up your knees due to the extra long tail and increased lkeverage against your tibia
