I want to know where would be the best spot to put my bindings on

its the 2011 model, 179cm and they gonna be my powder skis, (trees, chutes, bowls, and back country jumps) I'm 5'7'' and 160 pounds.

on the sidewall they set the center as 7.5 and traditionnal as 0

thanks

What are you skiing on now and where do you have them mounted?

Seth skis his about plus 5. Pettit rides his at core center which is the +7.

My powder skis are line blends 178 mounted where line suggests it.

I went on the k2 website and I think I will mount my obseths at +4  cause I will mostly ski powder with them but there will be also some jumping actions (cornices, clifts, pillows) and maybe some park jumping also.... your thoughts ?

You will love them. +4 is a good spot that utilizes a bunch of the tip rocker and still keeps you over the camber portion to rip turns on hardpack. Enjoy.

It's printed on the sidewall. Core Center is +7.5. Have fun on those things!
