I am starting to ski park a lot more and want to start switch tricks and riding switch. Does center mounting help. And does center mounting take away all-mountain ability??

center mounting would be the best if its a park ski. unless your doing really big mountain stuff it should be fine for back country skiing.

I have the same question, I have salomon 2012 rockered skis and want it to perform great in the backcountry as well as the park. What mounting position is going to give me the most versatility?

In center mounted my k2 dissorderly's. i have marker griffin shizzo bindings though but most of the time i am to lazy to slide them back haha. they work perfectly fine when center mounted on anything that is groomed but it does get a little more difficult when you hit the pow....it make riding switch and hitting rails alot easier.

if you ask the guy at the shop he will most likely mount it at the recomended setting, which probably, or mostlikely wont be center, if your going to be skiing mostly park, get them center
