depends on how you want to ski them, i like to jump alot and use them skiing switch so i mounted them up from recommended. but on recommended they slay forward.
i wouldn't be doing a ton of switch skiing some switch landings though, but recommended sounds pretty good. Also, will a shop be down to bend some brakes out or is that something like a liability for them?
depends on how tight you are with your shop and what bindings you have if you have Salomons they prolly will just make you get wide breaks. if you have the older fks they don't really have an option but to widen them up,
Not super tight but i think ill ask anyways, there some rossi's that might be axials? i honestly don't know. and i have really found anything through google although ill look around again right now.
Mine are at center with sth 14s. They seem to do really well everywhere (hardpack, pow, crud). I have hit exactly two park jumps on them and found them to be perfectly fine. Definitely talk to your shop though, they'll know where to mount according to your type of skiing.
I dont mean to thread jack, but I was wondering if anyone has had durability problems with the bases. I got a core shot the first day I rode them but dont really recall hitting or scraping against anything with a lot of force. I didnt even feel the need to check them until the next day and found a smallish core shot.
Besides that I love the night trains. I dont understand how but they can carve groomers like an all mountain, 90mm in the waist ski. I rode hellbents for a couple runs and definitely had a bit of difficulty pulling turns, but the night trains absolutely rip, its uncanny really. And I find that they are the perfect stiffness. I can butter around with a little force (I only weigh 135) and still stomp pretty decent sized airs. If I wasnt so concerned with wrecking them, they could definitely be used as an everyday, all mountain ski because of how well they perform on groomers and hardpack. They might just be my favorite ski ever.
