I planning on mounting my lizzies 1 back from true center. I haven't skied a non-symmetrical ski in over 3 seasons so hopefully this won't take too much getting used to.

if you can ski at all, it should take a matter of runs to get use to

^make sure to measure and mark it yourself, dont trust the line. the mounting lines on my lizzies are way off from where they are supposed to be

those skis are symmetrical so they are meant to be mounted true center. they are plenty wide enough to give u flotation in soft snow.
