Mark my words, 3 cm back from center. I have had 2 pairs of MSP's there, and they have ruled EVERYWHERE!

OMG DONT DO IT PAUL!!! I sold these to you why didn't you ask me?! The Super model is too stiff to ski that far foward because the super stiff tail gets caught up easy when it is long. I skied them at Freeride and felt like I wanted 1-2 cm less tail than that! No matter where you mount it you won't ski it park not at your 150lbs nor did I at my 200lbs, it is Stiff bro. It is not worth sacrificing the way this kind of ski can ski all mountain to try and tame it for versatility, that is not what it is. I told you all of this when you bought it bro. 1cm behind Freeride is the furthest foward I would mount it. And detune the tails better too, that will help them not get caught up and toss you. They tossed me out of S914s set at 12 left and right. Trust me Paul, make these your pow/crud killers because that is what they are made for.

Alright, i'll listen to you, i think i'll pick up a cheap pair of park skis to centermount and mount these either one cm back from freeride or on freeride, you would know better than me
