I'm goign to be skiing mostly park.

I think the recommended mount for the ar6 is 2.5 cm back from center.

I'm thinking about centering them anyway. can anyone with the ar6's or ar7's give me a little input?

thanks

Mounted my AR6'S true center, couldn't ski any other way. Some people swear by -2.5 back, but once you ski center you won't notice a thing. Ski a lot of park, even the odd pow days out in the East and love them.

Mount them where you feel happy with them. I had my AR6's centered and loved them. Mounting point will be an issue if your carving the ski, but I presume you will be mostly in the park, so it really does not matter. But at the end of the day have them where you feel happy with them. Somthing I like to do is take a pair of the same skis out with a demo binding, so I can move the binding foward and back to find the best postion. Its nearly always centre for me though.

well i'm really mostly just planning on skiing park and my anthems were centered, so i'm more used to center. I rarely get pow days in the east so i'm reallly thinking true center is the way to go.

thanks for input guys

can you notice 1cm back while in the park? spinning/rails is equally as easy?
