On the center mark of the ski for park and on the powder mark of the ski for everything else.

Despite not being a park ski, it kills in the park... when mounted on the center mark.

Yeah, I know that, but overall, what's marked on the ski is a good measure of where you should mount. With my 187s, first mounted on the center mark line which is 2.5cm back from true center and it was sick on anything groomed. Once the snow started puking I moved it back to the podwer mark, which is about 8cm back from true center and they killed everywhere there - groomers, trees, bc etc (they were fine in the park, but riding switch took a bit getting used to due to the decrease in tail length, after a while, I got used to it). Anyway, at the -8cm mark, you're right at the center of the sidecut so you engage the ski and get a more responsive feel edge to edge than from being higher up.
As I mentioned before center or powder is are good marks depending on where you want to go... or somewhere in between for an all mountain killa.
