Mounting on the line or a bit forward?
Mounting on the line or a bit forward?
what do you suggest?Originally Posted by Lok
2 cm forward. Butter.
thanks!Originally Posted by routter
Is that the general consensus?
I know the whole issue is hot, and am prepared to try and try and try... but was thinking to begin from where volkl put the gold spot
I'm happy w/ mine mounted on the line.
The only time I noticed the shortness of the tail was doing an emergency braking turn to avoid another skier. Ended up on my ass...
Lost the connection last night.
I would say 2 cm forward for alpine. If you like the way Salomon or Rossignol skis feel like when mounted on the line the Sanouk will feel more like that if you move a couple of cm forward.
If you tele with an active binding I would mount on the line. If you use Linken/Targa you could go 2 cm forward.
after a long indecision, I decided to start on the line... maybe I'll move later, but I'm also so curious to feel such a loooooooooong tip

Anywyas for what its worth, I am going to mount mine on the line, and then move them later if need be.
thats what I did.Originally Posted by mtbakerskier
I'll stay tuned....
BTW, I gave 150 euro (about 125 of your dolla) for solly 912 bindings. Was that a good deal (it's the first pair of alpine bindings I buy after being sold to freerides for a long time)
Just a quick pic comparing 188 Bigs mounted 2cm back of center and Sanouk 2cm forward of center. The contact points tip and tail on these is virtually identical and even with a 4 cm total shift the Nukes are still back of the Bigs.

After reading all the positive comments in this thread I may just keep the pair of Sanouks I have for sale.
did the first run sanouk have any of the problems of the first run gotama? i.e. is it safer to buy the later models or are they all comparable?
Now that Ive skied mine. I mounted them right on the line, and I couldnt imagine moving them forward at all. These are big skis and are ment to be constantly pushed. These skis are a fucking blast!
yeah, but then again you like 190 exploders mounted 1cm back... ???Originally Posted by mtbakerskier
