How much does that compromise turning? How far forward are concepts or 1080s? THanks

it shortens your turning radius. not necessarily a bad thing.

lol i got mine mounted today and guy and the shop was all like are you sure you want +3. he went into some speech about his 1080's and he mounted at the line. . Im thinking okay I have madtrix, its a freaking reversible ski, so that being said big mtn is not made to be 50all mtn/50park if u mount on the line, so he was like okay finally. . . (at first he was had to check to make sure his jib even would allow him to mount them +3. . .hahaha)

yes. it means the center of your boot is 3cm ahead of the center of the sidecut (the line).

FYI..

1080's mounted at the line is equal to PE's mounted at about +4, +5

another FYI... mounting mad trix at big mountain +3 is equal to mounting TM's on the line, or 1260's on the line as far as tail room goes.
