ok so im kinda confused...
i read the forum about mountaing fujitives and they sound like there just talking spicificly about that one model of skis.
what is the difference between core and true center mount with any ski?? and which one would be better for me if i like to spend about half of my time doing all mountain freeride and powder, and the other half doing park all day.
some advice would be greatly appreciated .

depends on the ski
and center on most skis would be the exact center so divide the lenght in half, mark and mount. same tail length and tip.

true center doesnt mean that the binding is mounted exactly in the center. it means that the balance pointin the boot is exactly iin the center

no true center is when the bindings are mounted in the center of the ski.

^no. there is a mark on most ski boots that shows the balance point of the boot, the center. And to center mount, you line this point up with the center of the ski, then mount the bindings accordingly.

true center = same tip/tail length
core center = point where the ski is perfectly balanced
