    That is +2 from an arbitrary reccomended "0" point, JONG.

    +3 is money for doing a bit of everything. +2 is the most rearward I could sugggest.

    You didn't need a new thread.

    Here ya go, as far as polls are concerned...

    http://tetongravity.com/forums/showthread.php?t=105548

    I mounted mine +2.5 from the 0 (as indicated on the sidewall)...Totally rocks on everything and the only ski that is funner, as an overall everyday ski, is my PMGear BRO 188 stiff...I can't believe I never got into this ski until now. At SAC prices, it's the best ski deal out by a long shot.

    I'm 205lbs, level 7+ and got the 179.

    When people talk about the mounting points they're doing it in reference to the scale on the sidewall, I b'lieve.

    +12 for all mountain

    +14 for jib


    seriously there are a TON of threads on this exact topic, why theres even a thread where someone actually posted a chart from K2 with the suggested mounting points

    http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/a...p?t-77521.html


    to save you the time of actually READING here's the chart

    Public Enemy/MissDemeanor:

    100% Park- Core Center to +9.5
    75% Park- +5 to Core Center
    50% Park- +3 to +5
    30% Park- +2 to +4
    10% Park- Mid Sole to +3
    All Mtn- Mid Sole to +4
    Powder- Mid Sole to +2
    For sure, you have to be lost to find a place that can't be found, elseways everyone would know where it was

    Mounted at 0, PEs are the BEST skinny powder ski I have EVER seen. They literally ski as well as any 95-105mm waisted ski I have been on and they absolutely crush the crud as well as anything short of a reverse camber and pretty much have no speed limit. I love my PEs. I am confused as to why they don't sell better these days... probably don't have a snazzy new name... they've been the PE for over 5 years despite design changes in 05/06.

    I will say that at 0 they lose a little bit of maneuverability in the bumps.

    I agree with Summit and Bushwhacker- mount them at 0 if you want an all-around ski. That's where I have mine and I LOVE these skis.
