if it's your first remount don't sweat it. Getting towards four remounts and I'd start considering it.

Leave it. You'll probably be skiing pow most on those and a little back of center is fine for that. You will weaken the skis if you remount them. But if it's really cramping your style, remount and plug the holes

3 times is the max anyone should remount decent skis. If theyre just for rocks and such, it doesnt really matter. By making the ski weaker, it really doesnt do that either, as long as the holes arent too far in front of where your new bindings are. IE, if someone had a 33 boot, and youre riding a 26 sz boot, it might pose some problems, because the ski will usually break in front or behind the boot, not right under it.
