The Blend is a directional ski. Slightly back from centre is your best bet. What problems do you find with them being non-center mounted?

i ski park quite rarely and mainly using them for a playful mountain ski on and off piste. Not sure centre mounted is best for this sort of skiing, any advice.

Mount them at reccomended. You wont regret it if you're skiing all mountain. I ski mainly park because im on the EC and I have mine slightly back and find it fine.

I found that it was a little harder to recover when you're kicked back-seat and that it played havoc with you tail butters

I have mine 1 cm back from true center. I ski mostly park and they are great. If u don't want true center, 1-2 cm back works

That's definitely what I'd go with as well but I live on EC so center would be better for me. If I lived in a place with better terrain, 1-2cm would be perfect.
