i am competing on saturday and i have the option of getting my skis center mount, and they'll be ready friday night. this would mean i would only have my practice runs to get used to center mount. is that not enough time, or should i get the center mount. it is a rail jam, and i have the 04-06 public enemys

Yeah center mount isn't much of a difference preformance wise, but it makes spinning a whole Hell of a lot easier. For a rail jam I don't think it really matters.
Nice name, it's after a Catch 22 song correct?

makes rails easier too, as you're centered on your planks

probably gonna be fine, unless you were riding like 4-5 back from true center before

plus if it's a rail jam you'll have a bunch of hits anyways, so you'll have more time to get used to them.

sucks your doing a rail jam with brand new skis i would be more worried about the edges then the centermount.

i centermounted my skis over the summer and started the season with a sketchy rail session. no problem at all. you should def center your skis cuz you have better balance on rails and getting used to them won't really be a problem cuz you only really go straight at a rail jam anyways.

You'll probably get used to the mount by the time you ski down to the rail.
