I tried 1/2 cm forward of CC for my downhill boards and 2 cm CC back for some touring skis ( more kick and glide than turns) and am happy.Īnd it is relatively easy to mount your own skis. skis mounted neutral or back of CC make a ski slower to initiate but easier to control at speed or from the back seat.

Also, many tele skiers like their pins 1-3 cm ahead of chord.
