so center mounted skis are mounted at "true center" not "core center" right?

Dead center on all k2's is +12, +7.5 is core center. If you want your boots at +7.5, then that's where you would put the center of the boot.

^ha, go ahead and mount them at +12, you'd probably eat shit.
mounting points refer to where the midsole of the boot goes. not the toepiece or the heel piece.

if you want exactly center get 12, 7.5 is like a inch back, it's your call. 7.5 is where the core is the thickest.

yeah mount them at +7.5, but in answer to your question it's the point where the exact middle of your boot should be.

the K2 factory team skis at +7.5 for park only. seth mounts farther back than anyone and his skis are at +5. mount them anywhere from +5 to +7 for all-mountian and park skiing.

Yea K2 highly reccomends that you mount them at +7.5. Why don't you jsut do it yourself nad buy like 10 moreo pairs so that if you mess up you can try it again? i'm sure htat you cna afford it

HOLY PISS they're meant to be ridden at core center, the only reason +1,2,3,4 etc. is on there is because its based of the traditional chord method of mounting where you divide the ski into thirds.
But since theyre not 193cm straight skis, the traditional chord mount doesnt cut it, therefore Core center is where its supposed to be mounted, and 12cm forward is true center. Get em mounted true center, or maybe 1 or 2 cm back from true center

They put the graph on there so people can mount the skis based on where they will ride most often. For all mountain, mount farther back, park mount farther ahead. As a owner of Fujatives, I would not mount further ahead than +7.5 cm (core center). If you want to ride everywhere, +5 cm.
