Thread: same old question but with regards to me....made'n mounting position?

6'2" 240lbs 25yrs old.
I ski at C.B. and Mammoth. I can ski the whole mountain at both of those places but i dont huck anything much bigger than 25-30ft.

just got some madens 179cm but i've never been on this ski.

i want to mount either used fr17s or brand new mojo 15s. even after 3 acls i keep my din at 13+ and would prefer to never release.....

only other ski in my quiver at the moment is a pair of teledaddies 183cm mounted with 916s at +1. i love this combo as an everyday set up but a bunch of my friends rave about the madens so i took the plunge.


which binding do you suggest and mounting point?

thanks

I suggest a longer ski.

I would suggest telemarking if you don't prefer to realease

Ski mine at +3.5. I like park stuff too though. I would go at least +1.5. Do the mojo's. No need for lift.

i still dont want them to pop when i'm dropping into something fun......i'd rather my acl goes then when i watched a girl kick a shoe and tumble head first down a sixty footer.......major head trauma (even with a helmet) and a shattered hip.....just a few weeks ago......

mine = mounted at 0. don't spend any time in the park though.

I'm 0 too, no park for me either. If I had it to do again I'd almost be tempted to go -1, since I'm always hunting the pow.
