how about you drive your cre from the front bumper. with a small stick, thats how much control you will have over your skis if you mount them ahead of true center.. DONT TRY SO HARD. or you will end up like this..

more tail = easier tailgrabs
less nose = easier nosegrabs
more tail = easier switch carving

I think you should mount them forward and tell us how that goes. Especially if they're really expensive skis.
