I have a pair of el reys that are a couple of years old, but I'm pretty sure they havent really changed. I originally had them mounted quite far back, but this season when I started doing park more I got them remounted at the center and it helps a lot. it really depends if you want to ski pow alot or not.

Overall id say mount em center.

The battle against center mounting on asymmetric skis rages on!

A lot of people said not to mount mine center and I plan on doing mostly park, so I returned them and I'm planning on getting punx or Nightsticks

punx seem cool but nightsticks are like racing skis they are sooooo stiff

Errm no, I have some Fischer race skis and I also have some of the stiffer piste skis Fischer makes and compared to even my FIS Spec SL's my Wateas are soft.
