there isn't any apparent guide for mounting (maybe the edge of the logo, the name on the sidewall, something else im missing?) I plan on mounting them core center because i don't ski in the park all that much. by the way the skis are fucking sick in person and ever so shiney

well i had ar5's last year, and got them at +5 which is dead center or 2 off of it, i dunno if dead is +5 or +7, but +5 worked out well for park and outside of park

dont go strictky by graphics, they are never QUITE lined up perfect. however, measure out the center of the ski, and go 2 cm back. that will put you about dead center in the ski, with almost excatly the same amount in front and bhind your boot. maybe three cm back.

but, if your mounting your skis yourself, but dont have any idea where yo mount them, that scares me. you should have an idea where you like your skis to ride.

they are marked with a little white line, but I would suggest 2cm back from true center instead
