Yeah I know there has been a TON of posts on these skis. I have the skis and need to get my bindings mounted. I searched and coudlnt find what I was looking for so I turn to you. I ski mostly park and about 7 days of powder a year. I am thinkin of center mounting or maybe going like .5 or 1 inch back. Is center mounting that bad for powder and can you land forwared fine on jumps in and out of park? PLZ HELP

For the millionth time - just back of centre will be fine about 2-3 centre

its different for everyone. and are you all talking inches? cuz centimetres is how some guys do it. my old skis were pretty centre mounted but when i got new ones the guy didnt mount them AS centre - they're still pretty forward and they feel normal after a few runs. i think centre would be better for park and a bit behind for pow

+5 sould be good for you. it is 2.5 cm back from centre but still close enough to true center to be good enough in the park. honestly, if you did decided to go true centre it wouldn't be that too big of a deal when you're in powder, esp since you're only gonna ride powder a few days a year

i had my pe's mounted +3.5, and now to get them remounted AND retain their structural integrity i need to be at least +/-3 from the original mounting holes.
so like +7...
essentially center... excuse me, CORE center... whatever the fuck that means.
