So I am getting Line Masterming skis for xmas and wondering if I should mount them in the geometric center or like the natural center which is further back from the geometric center.

Lmk guys

this guide should give a good idea on where you should mount them. I personally chose to move them 2cm ahead for an all mountain stance.

Ya I was thinking 3 cm ahead of the sole center but I dunno may just go true center. But does that effect your preformance on runs much?

i find the farther ahead the more snappier the turns are but thats just me also since it puts more weight forward on your skis it provides an increase in speed. i havent been able to really play around with different positioning on my bindings. im eventually going to get to get the griffon schizo's(http://www.markerusa.com/bindings-schizo.php) just so i can play around with stuff like that.
