I KNOW this has been asked before thanks tips.

I havnt seen a very solid answer because people say a lot of different things but I have ar7's and I dont know where to mount them. I ski 95% park and the rest is urban and groomers. Does anyone know where the armada team rides em?


thanks

If you're doing 95% park and the rest groomers, def go center or -1. No need for them to carve well - might as well have me be as good as they can for spinning.

Exactly. Unless you've skied a variety of of skis and have race-trained knowledge of how a ski should engage and disengage in a turn, you're not going to notice when you wash speed and fuck around like the rest of us.
