I think most skis were and are dual radius skis, just not marketed as such.
The side cut radius is just the radius of the circle that best fits (it's not an exact fit!) the skis edge. I'm pretty sure if you fit one circle to the front half of most skis and another to the back half of most skis, you would get two different sized circles.
