Mounting Fischer Ranger 115

Just bought some 115 Rangers and I'm looking at where to mount them. My last Fischer big six 122's were mounted 35mm back from true centrer and I loved them there. The new rangers are recommended to be mounted way further back (90mm) cause of the ski shape which makes sense. But I was looking at mounting them 40mm less then true centre anyway to make them more of a freestyle powder ski.

Does anyone on here have this ski and have any feedback on their mounting position? I'm still undecided and could use some advice. Thanks.

I haven't used the 115, but I have spent a good chunk of time on the 102, which shares a similar shape and rocker profile. I liked it best at -5 or -6 cm from center. There, I could still drive the front of it but I could spin it easier and ski it with a centered stance when I wanted to. So I don't know think I'd personally go up to -4cm, but I think somewhere between -4 and -6 would be pretty safe.

Yeah -3 to -4 would be fine on the big six rocker but cause there's no tail rocker maybe -5cm would be best. Thanks for the message.
