Did I mount my skis to far back?

I just got some 2011 line SFB's and I had the shop tech mount them at suggested (6 Back from center.) I feel like they are going to be really hard to spin and ski switch. I ski 70% pow and 30% park. Should i get them remounted, and if so where?

Well since they are pow skis from what I read, they should be fine for pow skiing. I would suggest just leaving them the way they are,

-6 is a pretty standard mount position for pow skis, between easier spinning and no tip dive, i'll take no tip dive. Plus, the less holes in your skis the better.

they have early taper so the tips feel super short. i mounted mine on the line and always felt like i was gonna go over the bars so you should be fine

So you haven't even tried them yet? And you want to remount them?
You'll be fine. I go with the recommended mount point on my skis. And they spin fine and ride switch fine. Like other posters said, you'll find that they ski better on most of the mountain at the recommended point.
