Surface Watch Life Mounting?

So I just picked up a pair of '10 Surface Watch Life's. I'm wondering where I should mount them for park. Mike Schneider says that he likes them center but when I emailed Surface they said 1cm back. I know that Surface gets cracked edges from park but I picked em up for $200 so I won't be disappointed if that happens. Thanks. (+K for responses)

Every ski is going to crack in park. Simple as that.
I'd say mount -1cm for park skiing. -2cm for more all mountain skiing. That's just me though

I wouldn't mount skis by yourself unless you're 100% positive you know what you're doing. Even if it's the same holes.
Take them to a shop and get it done right.

Unless you have a jig, don't free hand. You can fuck your skis pretty easily.
