This is just my opinion.
But I really like mounting all my skis at -2cm from center.

Worked for my Prophet 90s, Thugs, Blends and works for my One Lifes.

I ski a lot of big mountain though. Those past 4 skis have been the past 4 seasons. I like to have a lot of stability for charging. Works great for powder and switch skiing too.

I got my doubletimes mounted at -2 from boot center. I like it like that because it has a pretty good mix for everything. Park, pow, all mountain.

if i had live lifes i would mount them either -1 or -2 from center but thats because i like a more centered balanced ski.
