New TTS and Old F3's, Mounting point?

Post by Switchtele » Sat Dec 02, 2023 2:35 pm

Howdy hive-mind.
Since the Scarpa F3's don't have a duckbill, should I move the mounting point back a cm or two? Skis are UltraVectors.
Thanks.

Lots of guys favor boot center on the skis boot center for Vectors and Ultra Vectors
I am doing that mount for the first time on a resort ski. It will be a new experience for me, on the shortest ski I have ever skied in my life! It’s a double whammy, but I’m going to do it. I’m not afraid to mount a second time.

Mount them boot center according to Voile chart. I have the Ultravectors bc and the new transit and F3s. They were mounted boot center. You should see a hash mark on your F3s for boot center. Waiting on more snow to test my transits!
