How are you going to be using it? Is this your all-out powder ski? Any switch pow planned?

Measure the recommended point. If this is for pow jibbing and switch, and you know how to ski powder properly, I'd go about 4 or 5cm back from centre.

Watch Pollard talking about it on Line's site. The shape/etc of the EP is pretty unique, so I wouldn't fuck about with it.

always centermount rockered skis.

but at the recommended 2 cm you're pretty much centered anyway.

I emailed LINE about this and they said pollard rides at the suggested mounting point. That is where I am mounting mine.
