When you first start skiing like the 1st day...does it matter which ski is on the left or right foot...is there like some way to know or you just start skiing?

Last year I skied the opposite skis on the opposite foot as this year. I don't know if it really makes a difference but why not

unless you, say, only turn to the right, all the time, all the day long, then, yeah, it does matter...otherwise, unless the tech specified with a sticker which is which, it doesnt really matter with park skis.

it matters to me, because I always look at which ski goes on which foot, and I won't stop thinking about it so it will make me eat shit. but don't listen to me, I have issues.

god kids, yeah, there is a difference. on new skis, no, theres isnt. but the inside edges (and wax in base) wears out alot faster. you should rotate your skis (permenently) every month or so. a lot more life.

ya but would it matter if you didnt keep track and switched it up because then on average you would have each ski on the opposite foot the equal amount of time and the edge wear would be the sme?

I have to wear my skis same foot everytime because one ski has a cracked outside edge, to I need to make it so that edge doesn't touch rails

i wouldn't think so, unless for some reason you set your bindings differently from one ski to the other...

I got a sticker on my last year skogens that said 'This is your left Ski'. But it also had the warranty information on it so who knows, it might just be something they add on for no reason. Yeah ive never really noticed though, especially with twin tips.

Skis shouldn't matter, but some bindings are made to work on certain feet.

I alternate often , but it doesn't really matter unless you ski out east on hard pack or ice, but for my rail skis it doesn't matter at all cause the edges are detuned and I never get them sharpened. My pipe ski are important and are tuned every 2nd time I go out with them, you have no choice in the east... wish I lived out west !!!!

i alternate skis because my edges get equally beat on, and so that i dont have one broken ski, and one perfect one. i'd rather have two 'worn' skis than a broken one and a nice one. but it doesnt matter what skis are on which foot.

I have a left and right ski for my mad trix but i dont pay attention to it, it doesnt matter at all to me. In fact, I alternate them sometimes just because the edges will be sharper.

only for graphic reasons like 05 ar5s when you put the skis next to each other it spells armada across both skis the one that says ar5 180 or 176 or what ever is the left one but its good to switch so one edge doesnt get especially fucked up from rails
