Hey,what are the differences between the last year ARV and the 2008/2009 ARV?I have the 2007/2008 ARV and my binding mount point is + 2 cm from midsole line.(binding salomon 614)Now I have a ANT for Pow and next year I will buy me a Armada Park Ski.The Pipe Cleaner.So now I would go with the ARV on the normal pistes and backcountry with not so deep pow.Should i change the binding mount point?

dimensions are the same so you should be fine mounting them in the same spot. the flex is a little bit stiffer compared to last years skiI heard the ski is 9% stiffer for 2008-09. For backcountry u may want to test your current mount before re-drilling but for deep pow u may want it to be -6 or -7 from true center or back on the factory midsole mark. Your current mount is for park & all mtn.
