I bought a pair of the 172cm sfbs and was wondering if I should mount them at Eric Pollard's mount at -2 or traditional at -4. If it helps I ski mainly all mountain but do hit most natural jumps and stuff.

Depends on how often you ski switch. If you ski switch a lot, or want a ski that will be easier to spin/flip on when in the air, go -2. If you are a more directional skier and aren't concerned about switch skiing performance or how the ski will feel when tricking in the air, go -4
