i just got some, and i dont care too much but if i had the choice i would mount one facing forward and one facing backwards. Are they like truly symmetrical to like space shuttle precision? Cause if their not no bother ill just mount them both forwards, or both backwards, i forgot which was forwards and which was backwards

I'm not a line rep, but they're exactly the same. I skied them last year, and mounted one ski blue forward and one ski pink forward. It doesn't matter how you ski them, they're symmetrical.

idk if the newer invaders edges are like the old ones. but.. when i had them the edge in the front was one solid peice that came together with two seperate ends on the tail. so mounting one backwards made it alot more likley for a delam or edge blow out. but idk. just take a look at them

yeah. most likely your not going to have any problems with them poping out. but mounting them both forward deffinatly reduces the chance greatly. but thats just from my experiences

Mount it sideways so you can ski board. But yea you can deff do that.

I work for LINE. You can totally mount on forward, one backward. As people have said, the edges come together in the tail. That's the ONLY difference. The only way you're going to blow those out is if you ski directly into a rail/box/tree/rock/side of a building at high speed though, which you could be just as likely to do switch, depending on how much you ski switch...

ah but you are forgetting the butter zone is in the tip AND tail, definitely dont thke advice from this noob. and you not going to delam your skis because the tip come together there. Look on any other brand, all the edges come together on the tip and tail. Im pretty sure that line is one of the only brands with wrap around edges
