Mounting 06-07 PE's

I know there are a couple old threads on this, but I just wanted a little personal input.

I'm 5'11" 170 lbs.  I'll be skiing 60% Park 40% All Mountain.  Primarily east coast, and i take a trip out west normally every year.

Size: 179 CM

I was thinking at the +6 mark.  Core center is +7.5 I believe.  And True Center is like +11 (which is off the mounting plate)?  So if i mount +6 then I'd still be 5 back from true center, giving me some carving ability, but not too Asymetrical for the park.   What's your opinion on this?

def. +6 I use that set up for mostly all mtn. and it skis perfect and leaves a good amount of tail for switch.....+6 is your best bet

uh mount them at like 3 or 4 back from the actual true center of the ski. If you are going farther back from 4 you shouldn't be getting PE's

I would mount -4 from true centre...i did that with my 178 scratch BCs and I ski about 50-50 and they were amazing for everything
