depends on what you do. On my pow skis I center mount because I like going swtich as much as forward. If you are more of a conventional pow rider mount at recommended.

you'll be fine with a modern stance, pep and all those guys were landing switch on non-rockered skis with a traditional stance back n the day. i wouldnt center mount just cause i want a bit more nose than tail for pow skis. imo, but thats because i wouldnt be ridding switch too much in pow

For normal pow riding, without too much switch action then about 3 back from centre is a good spot.
