so i bought a new pair of AR6s this year for a huge deal ($200)
so first question
1.what bindings do u recommend me buying for my AR6s? ...im looking for light or durable...mostly on the like side so basically looking at rossis  or salomons


2. Where do u recommend mounting the bindings? at true center? is the ski made for true center?


thanks

look px12 jib or rossi axail 120
both are lightweight and good durably bindings
dont center mount AR6 simply because it really isnt meant for it
you can if you are hitting the park like every hour you are skiing but if you want to go on groomers and explore a bit i say 2-4cm back from center

There is absolutely no difference between the 07, and 08 AR6.  The only thing they changed was the graphics and i think they changed the delam problem, but don't quote me on that.  Other than cosmetics it's the exact same ski.

is there a reason as to why most of you would say to mount the ar6 at -1 or suggested or is this  just a preference. i'm mounting px12 jibs at true. these would be my pure park / occasional cruise around ski. i've never mounted center, so i'm hesitant.

mounting is all about preference, and what works for you best,
some people will mount at true center or even forward of center,
others will like the recommended mounting point and stick with that.
since you sound like your gonna do alot of park you might want to consider center, -1, or -2
then again it's all preference, and as nomensteven said above, reccomended seemed perfect for him
