Oboe, I would seriously think 100 times before adding more ramp angle.

If you have a ski where the binding can be mounted say 10-15 mm forward..that maybe enough to get you to a centered and more balanced position on the ski. In the past, I used to feel to far in the back seat and used to as a standard have my bindings all mounted 1/2 inch forward of the standard factory setting. Some new bindings today allow you to move the binding.

Too much ramp angles tires out the legs and presents a very difficult position from which to ski varied conditions on the mountain.

Best,
Gary
