just go with Armadas suggested mounting position you'll be much happier and its perfect. they built the ski just for park so u'll find that its quite close to true center....

the t halls were just built for park, the Ar5 were built as the all MTN ski the mounting points on the two were different and the Thall had the edges rolled.
FOr next year the edges on the Thall aren't rolled and thats because they took the AR5 and called it the thall for 07 and made a new ski called the AR6 The new pipe/park ski is the pipe cleaner. and the mounting point on the black thall and the white thall is quite close to center. i know cause i've mounted my fair share of them... and i've mounted them next to a AR5 and messured them both out.

haha damn, i was hopeing i could get some kid to go into a huge rant on how dumb i am.
(back to the thread, setting aside the games), you will be happy with suggested or true center.. if you do alot of sw ridding true center it but if not suggested.

Wrong.
I skied this season on centered thalls, it was awesome. Landing switch you will wash out if you dont land well on your toes, dont even hope of landing on purely the tip of your ski.

i centermounted mine and they are golden. although i guess i cant really compare them to the recomended, it is only like 2 or 3 CM from center anyways i think. at the most 5. it dosent seem to effect it but i would go a bit closer to center just because it has flex points in front of and bein the binding. either way though they are gonna ride like a dream i can promise that. just dont try to land the least bit back seat....it will never work

my friend centered his first and said that it threw off the flex points, making it way harder for nose and tail butters. then he put them at recommended and said it was a lot better, and they still ski switch and jump great. i'd go recommended.

go just in front of recomended if u really wana be close to the centre but they reccomend a mounting position for a reason so dont stray to far from that

t halls and you want them purely for park, centermount you wont regret it.
I mounted my ar5's behind center about 2 cm and since they are my only ski right now and im only riding park with them i should have centered them, so good ahead, and center them.
