Pow Skis Mounting points

I have a pair of Rossi steezes, and I am getting them re-mounted with new bindings. They were mounted "modern" last year, and did ok. I want to be able to ski switch in pow, but also be able to rip lines without my tips sinking. I am thinking I will mount them -3cm from center. Anyone have suggestions?

I am also not sure on exactly where center is for Rossi twins, is that "Addict"?
 
Addicted is really close to center. Flip one ski upside down, and see the addicted are like 2 cm apart, which translated to 1 back from center. I got mine mounted between addicted and modern. Perfect compromise I think.
 
I mounted my steezes at the "standered" mark. I will not be skiing switch on them much as I mounted them with dukes to tour, charge and huck with. I did however mount my brigades at "modern" and was able to ski just fine switch in pow with them.
 
I have some Salomon Thrusters mounted center and some Ninthward LTs that I have not mounted yet. The steezes are going to be my pow pow ski, but I want to be able to shred down steep lines, not too squirly. But I do like riding switch a ton. I feel like mounting them a little back though would not hurt my switch capabilties too bad. Maybe between Modern and addict? like I am pretty sure that is -3 or so?
 
So skiing switch is pretty good, but skiing steep lines is also failry stable? where and what are you skiing mostly? I love skiing switch, but I am going to be hitting some sttep and deep stuff as well. The steezes are 174, which means they will get a little squirly at high speeds, but still Iw ant to make them as diverse as possible. I like your reasoning going between modern and addicted, I think that would be a good compromise, but how much switch vs steep and you skiing would you say?
