Actually probably gettin Mojo Spawns but more people have JOs so i want to ask this.. Where do you guys have yours mounted... The furthest forward option on untracked.com is core centre.. anyone know how far from true centre this is? BTW the JO and the Spawn have the same mounting points..

JOs have true centre marked on them, plus a few other points back of that.

Mount them wherever you want. I don't get why kids stress so much over this issue. Dead centre for best handling switch, back about 7 for best handling all mountain, or anywhere in between for anything in between.

Actually JOs have core centre marked so im guessing theyr pretty close or the same.. And 'Kids" bearing in mind that i'm 20.. make a big deal of it because it makes a big difference to how the ski feels..

Well, the centre line on the JOs is true centre. If they call it core centre, then yeah they're the same.

Not trying to patronise, but come on you can work it out yourself. Just tell them however far back yo uwant them from the centre line.

Well since nobody can tell the difference between the two skis except for the pretty ladys i think i'll save 50 bucks and go for the Spawns..

Marginally sorter in the tip. Look at the flex charts.

The JO is lighter though I'm pretty sure.

I've seen the flex graphs but i think that tiny a difference probably occurs between two skis of the same model...

its not that big of a deal if there is a center mount line on your skis just wait until they come and measure how far it is if its that big of a deal to you.

Don't trust online shops mounting your skis for you. Bad idea.

Yeah I wouldn't do it. Get them unmounted and pay $20 to have them mounted locally, so you can draw a line when you want them. I looked on that site and it's just a choice of "core centre" (however they work that out), "freestyle" or "freeride" or somethign like that.
