As for bindings, the shape of the DIN standard boots are symetrical so there really is no difference in the bindings. BUT most manufacturers usually put some indication on the bindings so that you can identify lrft and right. On TYROLIA you will find a little stub of plastic on the ski brake. One is on the left the other on the right.
