I tried searching this and there are a good amount of threads about this question but the answer is very specific to many variables so I figured I might as well just post and get an answer for my setup.

So I have a pair of Liberty Origins 182 and Salomon Guardians and I am wondering where to get them mounted!

Currently I have a 2 ski quiver, including the ones I just described, I also have a pair of 172 Liberty LTE's center mounted with FKS pivots. I plan on using these skis for park days and resort days if there isn't much powder.

The Origins I plan to use on powder days and I also plan to do some short touring trips on them.

So should I get them mounted in the center or at the standard line? I was thinking about doing +2 from standard as I plan on using these skis more for just bombing powder but would also like to have the option to do some freestyle in them.

What do you guys think?

there's a lot of personal preference involved, of course, but for a touring/pow ski id def say mount at recommended. the cons outweigh the pros of mounting them up in this situation for sure IMO

right now theyre at the shop, i have them to be mounted at -3 (or +2 from standard). They wont get mounted for a couple days so if anyone thinks i should do otherwise speak up!
