Mounting Armada Halos

Hey so the halos got mounted -2cm back because the shop guy convinced me that if i mounted center it would mess the the way the skis ride because of the rocker pattern. I hadn't heard of this before and at the time i was whatever about it. Now i kinda regret not looking into it more before getting them mounted.

Anyone have experience or input on mounting halos at -2cm vs centermount. Or opinions on either mount?

Thanks!

some people say that they should be mounted at rec since the ski was designed around that spot due to the elf shoe tech, but some say that it is fine to have them center and even the pros have them centered. i know for a fact that hornbeck and wester has them centered. having them 2 back is still good they will handle the groomers pretty well

if you're asking us, you should probably just go with the factory recommendation

Yea man, I have a pair of halos mounted at factory recomended and I was nervous at the beginning because it was the first time I dint go center mount but they ride well in the park. I only ski park and im fine with them, youll just need to get used to them at first.
