I was wondering if I should center mount my skis(Rossignol S1, I know there not good but there my first twintip skis).

I will be riding mostly park about 80-90% and just a little normal blue and blacks.
What do you think.

eventually you wont be able to tell the difference unless you start riding non centered skis again

Doesn't really make much of a difference. I have my New Life's mounted center and they still rip. It's more about the skier than the skis.
