HELP! Mounting Point On Armada EDollo

I just purchased the EDollos. Plan on skiing 60/40 all-mtn/park. I am 15 years old and am 5 foot 4 (163 cm). I am an advanced skier who can tackle any terrain or run. I always go on jumps on the sides of runs and go off of some 5-10 ft cliffs whenever I have the chance. Lately I have been going on some park jumps and am getting ready to learn some spins. I want to get into the freestyle skiing, not only in the park, I am also interested in doing off-piste freestyle off of natural features.

I want this ski to be decent all-mtn and good for learning butters and learning freestyle jumps. I am not so interested in rails but more interested in jumps and butters. I go in between trees occasionally if that plays a role. Also don't get much powder in Tahoe but this season may have couple good storms. Where should I mount these skis? Also do you guys know what the core center of this ski is.

Thanks ns!

Peace.

-2.5 from center is the sweet spot (I think that's factory recommended on the edollo).

Mounting with the midsole of your boot at the narrowest part of the sidecut is typically where you'll get the best carving performance, and also typically where the "factory recommended" line is

Do you happen to know where this is on the EDollos, if not where can I find this info. I have searched everywhere to try to find factory recommended mount point. My skis arrive later this week but I want to know where to mount them before then. Thanks.

As we all said, it's -2.5. And it's written on the topsheet of your skis anyway.
