Does anyone have any thoughts on where jon mounts em?  Is centre mounting a good idea? 

Thanks

Well if you ski mostly park center mounting them would work well.

this is for my buddy who just got them. he skis almost completly park,  but also likes to carve a little(so im not sure about the centre mount).  im not sure if they are symetrical, and so im wondering if anyone has some thoughts?

No they are not symmetrical but Jo pros go well center mounted. Jon center mounts his btw if it changes anything.

i thought they were symmetrical but i could be wrong.

if they are symmetrical, you should center mount.

if they are not i would mount -1cm to -2.5(where i usually go) from center.

this way you still get really good park performance and he can still 'carve' on them...

being as i have multiple pairs of JOs/Bullets....

center without a question, mounting back is BS unless you are riding pow, hell i even put demo bidings on my race skis and moved em forwards so im only .5 back from center...and i have been skiing better. You have more tail so when i get backseat im not totally fucked, they ski shorter which is really nice for slalom, and i feel like i get a more even rebound off the skis....but hey its all personal preference
