I got some 188 moment tahoes and im not sure what bindings to get for them. I'm 6 "2 170. I am hoping to move out west this year so they will be my all mountain skis but i will still use them in the park sometimes. Where would be a good mounting place fot the bindings?

fail boat for you


will you be skiing switch much? if not just go recommended, or a little in front. DONT go center if you want them to perform all mountain. they wont handle as well and if youll be skiing them in pow they will sink like a brick

exactly. you're moving out west and planning to sometimes go in the part...tahoe's in the park, eh, ive never seen that but i guess it could be done. if you're not doing it often then deff dont go center. go recommended or just a little infront.

Jesters are sick if you can swing it, they are expensive but great bindings.

tahoes don't like to be center mounted, mount them like +2 from the line for a little bit of park, try to get your hands on some fks, it's a good combo otherwise some sally sth 14's or 16's, you're big, you want high din
