I got last years B DOGS and i was just wonder where everyone else had them mounted. I was considering mounting them farther up then they are suppose to be because i did that with a pair of ARV's and they became my favorite ski ever but i don't wanna fuck them up. The will be rode in the park or on groomers (in ohio) like 95% of the time

I had them mounted in true center, and it was perfect for me

I'd go true center on these, using them for park at true center is probably where you want them. The farther you mount them up, the less "ideal" it is for groomers and such

Do these skis have a true center line? I know some skis don't, and they just have a recommended line for park, all mountain ect... Just picked up a yet to be mounted pair

No - get the ski tech to measure to find true centre. They only have 2.5cm back and 5cm back lines that aren't always super accurate.

I mounted mine true centre with advice taken from Mike Hornbeck. I was skeptical at first because of the non symmetrical side cut but they still ripped out of the park and were money for butters.

Ok. I have always gone about 1/2cm back so I guess I'll stick with that. I ski park pretty aggressively and hit large features forewords and switch. I occasionally head out west and elsewhere to ski all mountain and powder.
