i had mine at a little farther forward and i remounted to core center. soooooo much better. i would reccomend core center though. don't mesure in half and mount there.

swing weight i dramatically decreased by the even tip and tail. rails seem to be much easier. skiing switch is a LOT easier because of the longer tails.

dont get a tape measure and put your bindings half way between the tip and the tail. unless your skis are designed to be mounted that way, they will ski like shit. most skis have alternate center marks (k2, 4frnt, etc...). if you have your heart set on center mounting, dont go any further than an inch forward of the center mark on the ski. like i said before, if you go any more, they will ski like shit, and you just fired a bunch of holes in a brand new pair of skis that are pretty much useless now.
if i said it, it must be the truth!

No you can't.
It's physically impossible.
If ski patrol or police see center mounted skis outside of the park you get arrested.

I mounted 7 cm+ on my vinnies, and they ski fine outside of the park. they are better switch than PE's which are on the suggested mounting position. They are bad outside of the park, but the pe's are better.

I dunno about that dude, I've got all my skis center mounted, Triplets, stomps and Pimps. It does make it a bit tougher to ski big mtn. but once you get used to it it's pretty good. I know Abma mounts his Maidens 1cm back from center. either way Center is the way to go. Makes switch landings way easier in Pow too.

center mounting adds stability if you land in the back seat
