So i got my chronics in and im stoked!
Im still in doubt were im going to mount em.

Im leaning to wards center mounting them..
Ive read that +2 is a good one too (is that +2 from where it says midsole?)

Ill mainly be riding indoor park with them like 90%.

This is the first time im getting skis mounted and i dont want the shop to mess it all up.
What should i do to prevent that.

Thanks alot ++ K

where ever you decide to mount( -1 would be sweet)...... measure it out on you skis and put a piece of tape/line across where you want to get mounted, i put a post-it on my skis with large letters that said MOUNT WHERE I HAVE SPECIFIED, just incase of confusion

I bought mine from somebody who had already mounted them and they're a mm or two too big, I was on them for about a month and a half last year and did notice it once or twice. If I remount them anybody have suggestions to how far forward off the midsole line I go? I probably ski 50/50 park/groomers so I'm thinkin they should go forward more.

i just got a pair of the new chronics (skied them 5 days so far) and mounted them at -2cm true center. They are such a sick ski, and the mount felt good in the park and wasnt bad in some of the powder we have been getting. like someone else said -2 seems to be a sweet spot. hope that helps
