    Could be true (I haven't tried them though). A big change for this year is that the 07 Proriders are no longer hand made in Dynastar's Race Room. They're regular production now (whatever that means...).

    Too bad this didn't make them cheaper

    Grapedrink put out a nice list. Mine were / are the 2006 models Tip and tail protectors the 186's centerline (bump) was 79.5CM from the tail.

    I don't even know what the mesurement is on the 194's I ski now. I just like them the way they are. needless to say the 194's plane on powder better than the 186's did cuz THEY ARE LONGER!

    I cannot speak to the new new Pro's lets hope they are the same?

    They look just like mine, 2005/2006 From this past winter. Those are the last of the 186 Race Room LP's I see you also have to color matched P-12 bindings.

    194's get mounted 845mm from the tail.

    186's get mounted 785mm from the tail.-- might want to double check this. it might be 795mm

    Do this. They ski awesome mounted at that measurment.

    So does anyone know the measurement for this years 06-07 legend pros, or has anyone played around with different mount points? I just measured my 186s and to the midboot line is 800mm.

    Do you guys recommend 800mm or even putting it back a little bit more? Im thinking it might be a good idea since I ski alta/bird even though these arent going to be my pow skis...

    Do these mounting points hold true for the Super Nobis as well? I just bagged a pair of the Euro version (Intuitiv Big Pro Rider - 194, from 2003) and was wondering where to mount them. Sounds like 845mm from the tail may be the way to go...

    I have searched but didn't find anything

    So again, where have people been mounting the 06/07 models? The midboot mark on my ski is at 800mm, are people just going by this?

    First comment on your glorious board
    I've got a new pair of LP xxl 194 waiting for me in Switzerland where I'm going to this winter. On these sweet babies I'm mounting a pair of 916s.
    My question then - would people's responses to the lp xxl be the same, pretty much, as with last years lp's?

    From what I can gather then, this years 186s should be mounted center line if you want them to ski like they should (fast crud bustin machers), not like a powder ski (which they are not).

    Is that right?

    There's no line or mark on my set. I searched, read, and could not find an exact answer. So where should I mount my '07-'08 186CM LP's? Is it 79.5 cm from tail with the tape pressed to the topsheet, or something else I should consider? Please elaborate with your reply.
