Hi..So i think ive finally settled on the s7 for my all mountain/pow ski and was wondering where to mount these bad boys and with what bindings; im 5'10 146. I ride hard, fast, like to ski bowls and trees, drop cliffs, and jib the natural terrain features all over the mountain but also will be coming down through the park at the end of my runs so id like to have good swing weight for tricks..ive seen a lot of ppl mounting + centre but ive never even skied a centre mount ski before not even for park my 08 dumonts are mounted -1 so im not sure where to go could anyone advise based on my size/skiing style and what bindings to go for aswell?ps -Does the rockered tip and tail make it ski a lot shorter so i could go 188?Thanks, J

Definitely mount them up at +3cm forward. Sage himself said that's what works good. As for your binding, you should be looking into the Marker Jester, or the Marker Griffin. They are the same binding made with different materials and different DIN settings. You could choose which one would be best for you based on your weight. Everyone is mounting these on their wider skis and loves them. I have a pair of Jesters, and I love them too. As for the ski feeling shorter with the rockered platform, you should just stick with a ski pretty close to your usual ski length. They do carve groomers like a shorter ski, but you are still throwing around the weight of a long ski. When you get in the soft snow, you will be using the entire length of the ski, and you won't want a ski much longer than you usually ski because it will be hard to throw around. this guy is whack don't listen to him he doesnt know a thing besides bindings. i am currently skiing on a pair of the rossignol steezes in a 185 and have no trouble spinning them floating them in powder or carving up the groomers and im 5' 10'' and wiegh the same as you go with the 188 you wont regret it especially if you like skiing fast and dropping cliffs the extra length will make it alot nicer remember rossi skis ski short and their rockered so it'll be even shorter. if you mount them as far forward as you planned you will be able to spin them easy
