So i have a pair of JJ's and I want to get them mounted up. However, I am in Alabama and want them to be mounted for when i get back. 
Looking for advice on where to mount them because Im not going to be up there to see how it looks.

Im thinking 2cm back from center.
Sound about right?

Anyone have JJ's? If so where did you mount them?

Nice, still does good riding switch?
I was thinking maybe 2.5 back because that'd put it right between center and recommended.

There have been a number of threads on this, but I realize the current search bar configuration can make it a bitch to find threads. Armada continues to say that the ski will perform best on the factory line which is marked on your ski at -5 cm from center. However, Tanner and Jacob mount theirs at -3 cm for doing more tricks and landing switch and Ian Provo rides his about -2.5 cm from center. You should be fine anywhere between -5 and -2.5 cm from center, but I wouldn't go any further forward than that.
