Park ski in moguls

I got a good deal on some nordica ace of spades I would use for park and bumps.  If I am going to mount a ski at center would it make much difference if its directional or symetrical like the ace of spades when skiing bumps?

You will definitively feel the difference if you centermount. Your tails will be slamming on each mogul really hard, it slows you down and makes it hard to get around the moguls. It's still fun, but not the best.

this. my chronics work for moguls, but when you have a center mounted ski, sometimes your tail and tip are the only things touching the snow, and you get bounced out of the moguls

I'm going to center mount, skiing park without a centerr mount seems like a bad idea.  so I just want to know how much difference a center mounted directional vs symetrical ski would feel in moguls.
