    Freeride shim question

    So I've heard all the talk about the ramp angle and am about to mount some freerides on a pair of 190 AK Launchers. I'm wondering how much of a shim guys are running on the heel piece to adjust for the high toe. I'm in the backseat enough as it is...

    I'm running DII's, but there definitely is a difference. I would personally try to either shim the heal about 3mm or lower the toe via removal of the toe spacer

    try it as is first and just remove the toe shim if you need to, or mount the skis a bit ahead of center.

    toe shim is 2-3mm

    Lawnchairs are nice touring skis, soft and friendly
