hey , just got me a pair of these bad boys,love em! The guys at the shop suggested the traditional binding position which is set back slightly.I am riding mostly BC terrain and was curious about the K2 suggested mounting position,farther forward.how different will this feel,and is it worth paying a tech to re-mount just to find out.I'm a realatively hard charger and hucker,but not switch.Any advice,or suggestions?

First of all I would not listen to anything a shop guy says, 99% of them don't know what there talking about. I would go 1 to 2 cm. back from tru center of the ski to avoid the wheely efect no matter how you ski them thats where they ride the best.
