Yo yall,
Im picking up some gotamas tomorrow and i want to know where to mount them. I mount my park skis at almost the center. ANd i want to jump with my gotamas, but i also want to rip the powder too. Any experienced powder skiers want to give me their thoughts on mounting powder boards, with a little jumping flava.
thanks

the more forward you mount a powder ski, the more the tips will dive in the deep stuff. i mounted an explosiv almost center and i really wish i hadn't. it killed the pow performance. it was sweet switch, though.
how much time do you plan to ski switch in powder?

how often will i be trying to land and ride away switch in powder...hmmm i'd say just about every powder day we get i'll be trying i think if you mount forward a little bit at least give yourself the option of riding switch. i mean thats what the tail is for
