    180 Heli Daddy mounting

    For those that have them and ski them where did you end up mounting them?
    Ive already asked mntlion but he doesnt have any 180s on hand to reference.
    Ive got a sharpy line on mine 75cm from the tail.
    Will be 70% BC/ 30% Resort & Sidecountry Pow Day ski mounted with freerides.

    If no one here knows, maybe you can call one of the heli ski outfits that uses 'em and see if they can get you some info?

    I somehow mounted mine in the same spot as the guides were on our cat trip and his were original mount. I'll measure when I get home tonight and let you know where they are.

    I'll do the same, but I'm pretty sure they're boot center mounted on the ski centerline, which was marked with a sharpie on my skis. You can get the measurement from a sugar or teledaddy... just measure from the tip.

    I'm pretty happy with that mounting... if I weren't on dynafits (flat ramp) I'd maybe go back 2cm, as the tips do dive a bit if you're not porpoising. With some more ramp you could move back and still not have an issue initiating turns and getting them around in firm conditions.

    I ended up @ 76cm's from the tail with the tape flat. About 1/2cm back from the 30" Mntlion said to use.
