my friend just bought some 175 guns, does anyone know where the park mounting point in relation to the true center, or where you would want to mount for all mountain and some park?

don't mount these for park. They're meant for BC, with the stiffened tail for hucking cliffs and cornices/BC booters. Plus the widened ski would not work too well in the park. Have him do it at the suggested point, cuz thats where they will ski the best.

They're actually a really sweet park ski, or at least I really like them. I think that the regular mounting point works well for park and is actually a bit forward of the ideal spot for regular skiing. I'd say your best bet would be to either have them mounted at the all mountain point or right between the two mounting points.

i use them for park and i have mine mounted +4.5 cm from standard mounting point. i really like where they are. not too far foward for powder but enough for park.

on second thought if he is mounting them for a all mountain, go with the +20mm from standard.
