Just got the 2015 Armada AR7 length 171. Since they are not symmetric skis, I've been told not to center mount them. Any opinions on where I should mount the bindings?

Thanks guys!

Mount them wherever you feel comfortable riding them

No personal experience with these but my general rule is -2 from center if not recommended

How much park are you skiing? If your skiing 75 percent park or more I'd go true center, however if you want a little mix between park and all mountain, they rip at -2.5 back. I rode them all of center last year and loved them. When i got new boots this year I tried 2.5 back and they killed it on groomers and still perform great for park, skiing switch may feel a little weird mounted back however.

this, if you are less then 75% park mount them at -2.5. I have mine mounted that way and they rip all over the mountain. I can take em down some of the steepest slopes on the east coast no problem preform great in the trees and only take a small amount from the skis park performance.
