K2 Seth mounting position

i just got some 07/08 seths mounted at -4 from center (+1 from recomended). i skied on them two days and they rip pretty much everywhere but i am thinking about remounting them at -1 or -1.5 from center.  my reasoning for this is first off the seths are my only ski, i live on the east coast and i want the ski to perform better in the park.  also i feel like it will make nose butters a lot easier, as of now they are managable but a bit difficult.  i really dont think it will affect their performance in pow very much because the mini rocker keeps the tips afloat anyways. any input from people who have skied the seths (preferably this years) would be great.  thanks.

dude core center(at least for me) and -4 isn't that much different in park unless you were ridiculious in park but then you would probably have more than 1 ski

Core centre on Seths is -5, so that would be pretty much the same. He's talking about 1 back from true centre though which would make a difference.

It's your call. Park/switch performance vs all mountain performance. Mini rocker might make them ski weird if they were at centre.

I have to say, on 189s, +5 from the line is definitely the spot.
