i already have old line Skogens that are at centermount. im either gonna go freeride or half way between freeride on my High Societys.

i would use my lines for all park stuff (on days when the snow is shittyer) and i will use my high societys for some park, but mostly steeps and powder. So i would still be skiing switch on the HSs a little, but mostly the lines would be my park ski.

should i go for half way between freeride and center, or should i go all out freeride mount?

ya i know, i had some, but the top sheet started to split off for some reason so they gave me new ones recently. im jsut hving second thoughts as to wether i want them half way inbetween or fully back becuase i have bindings for my old lines which i would use in the park more

dropping cliffs with a centermount isnt the greatest idea unless you ride skis that are pretty damn long in relation to your height

ya, i talked to the guy at the shop who actually seemed to know what he was doing. im going for the full freeride mount. he said that you should be able to land a 540 fine that way and im not that good so im sure ill be fine. and like i said, mostly im going to use them for steeps and pow so...
