what have you skiied before?
I'd recommend to take whatever you want to do the most, then tailor it to it....for example park = dead center, powder = traditional

what kind of powder you talking about? if its a ton (like 20+), then get anotehr ski, but under a foot...then just adjust for this ski

so in your case mabe 3 cm back from true center, maybe put them at the recommended center just about trad

2 CM  behind center is the ultimate all mountain mounting point.   You won't even be able to  tell in the park that they're not center... but you will be able to tell on groomers and pow.

core really -2 doesn't feel any different and you will regret not mounting center

Yeah probly my best bet is -2 or center cause I'm only going out west for a couple of weeks and everything else is park and groomers.
