I just got my VCT's in. They are soooo sick! The ahve nice flex in the front. But its pretty stiff in the back, which is good. The graphics are intense!

I am getting the 4FRNT Deadbolt 412 with my 4FRNT VCT's. Where should I mount my bindings on my skis? I have Public Enemys that are a 159 and I use those as an all mountain/park ski. I also have some 161 Old Salomon Teneightys which I use for mostly park. So I will be using my VCT's for mostly backcountry and big mountain. But I will probvably take them in the park a couple times to see how they do in the park. I am 5'7" and weigh 130. Where should I mount my bindings on my skis?

I ride the 175 in park. They have good pop they are not to soft. I like the width for rails and jumping, kinda personal preference.

I try but I just cant make up my mind. Besides, the Newschoolers community is more knowledgable then me. So I ask them. Where should I mount my bindings?

How do I find the core center of my skis? There are no markings for it like my other skis have.

I'm thinking of buying a pair but I want to use them all mountain, not just for pow. How do they ski groomers/hardpack etc?

um, they're fairly stiff, kinda damp, not the poppiest ski, but amazing in the pow. should be pretty good all mountain, thougghi'd stay away from bumps. good in park too if you like wide skis in park, not going to be like the anthems though. i skied the 182s though the day i skied them, so smaller sizes aare probably softer as 4frnt likes to progress theflex pattern as the size increases. also these were the original ones, so tey may be softened up a bit with the addition of the EHP to the 4Frnt lineup.
