i just got my invaders in today and my p12 jibs. i went to get them mounted (at plaines) and the guy said they shouldnt be mounted different ways (as in the skull in the front on one ski and on the back of the other). i think this guy is fuckin stupid and is gonna fuck up my skis and is gonna mess up the placement of my bindings. i really hope he doesnt cause ive been waiting so long to get these..

i shoulda went to fanatics

well, really it depends on the flex pattern of the ski, im not sure about the skis your talking about, but most skis have an asymetrical flex pattern (like more flexible in the tip than the tail, or visa versa)
take this years fujatives, really soft tip, stiffer tail, mounting on backwards would be pretty weird to ski on

they have semitrical flex, go to a new shop. If they ever say anything like that to me i would walk out laughing with my skis in my hand and my boots over my shoulder.

invader u can mount with skis facing any way u want(except for sideways but that is given) because the dimensions are completely the same. if u lay them on top of eachother u can see like that. or u could measure them. same flex patterns on both side so it dont matter
