Just picked up the Blade Optic 92 on clearance, as my dedicated park ski. Where should I mount it?


Twig had commented on success with +4.5 cm from recommended on the 104 and 114. Same for my 92?

-2 true center. Wouldn't go farther forward than that. Idk what recommended is so can't do the + thing. Like - better anyways.

So, now I have a general mounting question...

This ski has exactly one line on it - Factory Recommended.

How could it be mounted based off true center, when the manufacturer didn't provide a center line?

My understanding is that the jig for drilling is positioned relative to some known line? How could the jig be positioned relative to true center?

Nope. A good shop will measure the true length of the ski and find true center off that. Then go back 2 cm or whatever you want.
