What skis are you mounting, if the dimensions are or are close to symmetrical then go true centre

It's really all about what you like. I like to mount my skis1 to 2 cm back, but if the ski is symmetrical or close to it, true center should be fine.

Hmm it depends on what ski you are mounting, i think for now true center mount is the best cause it's just very good for rails, you've got the best stability.

Of you are skiing all park then yes, skiing 50/50 park/ all mountain then think about maybe 1cm back

1cm back is not going to make any difference at all, just go center. You could also use the same argument against going center, but why not just go center if you are that close?

core center is the center of the thickest/strongest point of the ski. It doesn't always match the true center, which is the exact middle of the length of your ski. You want to mount true center. Just have them measure the length of the ski and put the binding exactly in the middle of it
