Trouble Maker Mounting Question

Hey,
Currently I am riding the 175cm Tm's with the P10 Binding. I have them mounted for all mountian, I believe it is called tradtional. My question is, should I have them remounted center for the park and jibing. I live on the East Coast, so Pow and big mountian is rare, but I do want it to rip groomer and pow nicely. Overall, will remounting them center affect all mountian skiing greatly and it will help improve jibing and park runs. Thanks

tm's are the best mounted at recommended. I have 2 pairs 1 mounted at recommended and one mounted +2.5cm (closer to center). I hate the forward mounted pair. keep them at recommended they're far better

eh i have mine at +2, i LOVE how they ride switch and land and everything, but i wish there was a tad bit more nose when i'm in glades/powder/doing a drop but thats probably just because i like big skis

id say leave them where they are at, dynastar took into consideration that they were going to be used in the park when they decided where the mounting mark was, so i say you'll be fine.

ya if you were deciding for the first time where to mount them you would be smart to consider +2, but there's no reason to remount them. keep them as they are.

i just bought TMs and centermounted them... rails are so easy and switch stuff is much easier too when compared to 171 1080s mounted at the recomended spot. I have no complaints about centermounting them and would deff. recomend it

+2 is where its at, i have ridden them at the reccomended spot, and +2 was much better for EVERYTHING.
there's a reason its called snowboarding......it's snowing!!!

ya^ +2 is the way to go
plus most of the dynastar team does it that way, so if you do it that way too youre automatically better right

I ride mine at +2, they work well all around, except in powder, but TMs really aren't good for pow no matter where they are set I'm sure. I have always had mine at +2 so I don't know is reccomended would be better but +2 is definitely good enough to the point where I would doubt reccomended being better
