For anyone who has ridden prophet 130's...

ALWAYS measure yourself. put your ski on a table and put somthing on top of it to decamber it (make it flat). Then, mark right where the edge first lifts off the surface you have it on, and do the same for the tail. Then get a piece of string, and cut it as long as it is between those two marks. Fold the string in half, make a mark in the middle, then string it back up between the 2 marks, and you will find the true center.

you only have to do this for one ski, then you can use the mark you made and the recomended mounting marks on the ski to measure the distance forward and mark if with a ruler for the second ski. This way it's consistant.

*The reason why I say to do this is because most shops don't have a clue, and will mount your ski in the middle based on the very tip of the tip and the very tip of the tail, and with most skis this will result in a ski that is actually mounted more forward than in the middle or back.


After you have done this... post on here where the center is compared to the recomended mounting spot. The reason I say to do this is because some skis recommend different spots to mount, and therefore, for example, +3 on a K2 is different than +3 on a LINE. I like to speak in terms of how far back you are from the dead center.


All of my all mountain and powder skis are mounted 4 cm back from the dead center. That;s how I like it... I find that it works well for everything. 

I am assuming they are last years. yes/no? Just mount them 1/2 way btw the front set of holes. Thats where I rode them with Line bindings... and they were sick.

nice that 4frnt makes a 130 brake now, eh?

That is for sure the best place to mount them, as though you were skiing the front set of holes. I skied them all over the place and that is the spot. You still can't dive the tip if you tried but it stomps switch like nobodies biznass.
