I skiid theses this season (only like 10 days) and they were mounted at reccomended (like 7.5 cm back from "core center" and didn't ski any park. Next season because I am stuck in the midwest I am going to ski a lot more park and I'm gonna mount them further forward. This is one of the k2 skis that has "all terrain rocker" which I assumer means in the tip and not the tail, but I can't really find the difference between the tip and tail. I don't want to mount these center if there is tip but not tail rocker, because then I would be actually forward on the effective edge of the ski.

So sparknotes, does this ski have the same rise tip and tail? and would it be good to mount center for about 50/50 park all mountain?

the sight is dope. The rocker profile will be evident if you press the skis together, and if you have them lined up correctly the tip will have rocker but the tail won't when in contact. Plus there's a measurement scale on the sidewall of the ski. Not really sure how you're confused...

well I'm just kind of wondering if mounting at the core center mark on the sidewall will actually be forward the center point on the effective edge.  I will try the pressing them together idea.
