I am 6'5", 225lbs, aggressive skier, have the last model in a 189 mounted at +2. Very fun ski, but the tips seem to dive on me in anything more than 6 inches. Just picked up the new model of the ski and would like to try to avoid that problem if possible. Would mounting closer to traditional help this problem at all by creating more area to float up front?? Boot size is a 29.5, probably not going to be riding switch on these

Write your answer here...I put a pair of Schizoos on my obSETHed 189s last year and move them around depending on conditions. Usually I ride them at +2.5, but go to +3 for tight chutes and +1-+2 for deep. Me, 6'2' & 200 lbs.
