right on the damn center mark

just ride the ski like it built. Trust me, dynastar knows what their doing. the best balance is on their center mark, and ive seen kids tear the park and mtn up with them at 'set center'

center mark of skis, and dynastars recommended mark are not the same at all. I thought since the TMs were jibbin skis the recommended spot would be real center, so not thinking about it I got them mounted back -3. I am getting them remounted right now for +5 from recommended, and I think they'll work good for all mountain skiing too. Mine are 182's so they might be different also.

I would suggest +2 to +5 though.

cause center mount makes them worse for all mtn cruising

ok dynastars reccomended mount is -3 cms away from center of ski. pjo if you got them +5 from the reccomended point, they are +2 from the exact center.

my reccomendation is +1 from the recomended point if any at all.

Yeah except mine are 182s, and +5 still is a couple centimeters away from the center, unless they got messured wrong...I don't really care though, I don't carve or ski powder in michigan anyways. oh, by the way, thanks for the shitty ass skis smuggs, they sucked ass.
