EP Pro mounting help

Hey guys I have a pair of 2010 EP Pros (the ones with the clouds on the base) and can't decide to mount them recommended or true center? Recommended is 2 cm back from center, I tend to land backseat so I am tempted to go true center and hope that helps with my landings off cliffs and features. Is it risky to do that and possibly take away from the powder capabilities of the ski by going 2 cm forward? If anyone has ridden the ski and has some input it'd be much appreciated

+k to all help! thanks

I had those exact skis and mounted at true center, it was a huge error... they were super fun and manoeuvrable but every time I did a drop (even if it was like 3ft) into pow the tip would just fold up and stop and I would double eject from the heels and go for a tomahawk. They are just so soft in the tip and tail. I'd say mount at recommended, going true center won't help with your back seat landings because you'll end up having to land back seat to stop yourself going over the front.
Mind you I was about 220lb back then so possibly not a wise ski choice anyway.

Thanks for the advice, I'm 5'10 160 pounds but have heard the ski can hook if you ski too far forward so sounds like recommended is the way to go
