I mean I'm aware that both skis are identical but i always wear the same one on the same side. Like i designate a right and a left ski. Does anyone else do this or am I retarted?
 
your skis wear different. like, the inside edges wear alot faster. when you flip skis, it increases thier lifespan a ton, but it makes them ride totally differnt. if your gonna do it, do it once or twice a season, not every other day.
 
I wear the same skis, on the same feet, alllll the time. That way one edge gets destroyed so hard, and the other one is still good, rather than destroying two edges completely.
 
I can tell the difference when skiing, so to make it easier I put a sticker on one ski to show that it's the left ski or whatever. If for some reason I do still have the wrong ski on the wrong foot I will usually stop mid-air on a 150ft gap and switch skis before completing my 900.
 
yeah I keep one on the left and one on the right... not really on purpose but I have a sticker on my right ski and always seem to put that one on my right foot...
 
yup i have to cause i cant ski if i dont have them right and left ski, cause i i switch them up, i tends to fell weird, and then i cant ski well
 
I ride motherships, therefore gorgeous girl in bikini with boom box must line up. Even if it werent for that, it trips me out when I'm riding the wrong ski on the wrong foot.
 
i do it too. i freak out if its not right. its just psychological. if i look down and it isnt right i get sketched out and eat shit.
 
with my last pair i used to religously, but with my new ones i cant tell which goes on which foot i think i'm going to just pick a ski for each foot and wear them down the way they should be
 
yeah i usually do too.. dont really know why though. just get used to having certain sticker patterns on their respective sides i guess
 
designate one from the other just so you can switch them up every other time you ski. That way they wear evenly, That is if you bindings have been tested with both boots.

 
i swap em from one side to another to keep the wear on the edges from rails balanced (back foot tends to get weared down faster)
 
the way my bindings are mounted one ski is backward and the other faces the right direction but i still have no idea which is right and which is left
