Afterbang Midsoles

I just picked up a pair of afterbangs for this season and noticed that when the skis are put opposite ways the midsole mark does not line up. It only lines up when the graphics are facing the same way. These are supposed to be a symmetrical ski and the midsole mark should line up no matter what way they face. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and what they did about it. I understand i can just measure out the midsole point but i just want to see if this happened to anyone else. Thanks.

The same thing occurred with mine. Don't worry, there symmetrical. The marks are just off. Either measure them out or take them to a shop to get mounted.

It wouldn't be the first time a midsole mark wasn't in the middle of the ski.

Just re-mark them yourself (or get the shop to)
Top tip - to make sure they are perfectly centered, turn 1 ski around (like you have done) and make sure they still line up.

Always measure, topsheets can sometimes shift when being applied making the mounting points off.
