i just switched from some 185 line darksides to 190 head madtrix, im loving the skis but they're mounted true-center which ive never done before. now i feel like all that tail leverage i love is not there anymore. any advice on how to make the best of skis that are mounted in the middle work best for me would be appreciated.

center mounted skiis suck large black penis in the backcountry but the kick ass in the park, it takes a few runs or days to get used to them, but they feel lighter, you can spin easier

i could definatly tell the difference between my old standard mounts and my new center mounts. there are pros and cons of each. like crossing the tails on switch landing sometimes happens, but the extra bit of tail is so nice skiing fakie. but it takes away from the tip so you may feel like you're riding a shorter ski, although you may not feel that way with a 190. but yeah, just ride them for a few days, you'll come around and park tricks will be a easier i guess, nothing too great. i couldn't speak on backcountry though...
