For me – once card stock is scored it can be folded either way. Only the heavy stuff for tanks and ship frames (1MM or so) need to be scored on the reverse side.
For these I use a thin long needle they are much stronger that pins and can be inserted with the assistance of a small pare of long nosed pliers. I use two pare one to push the needle and the other to support the reverse side. Push the needle between the hand grips of the pliers on the reverse side rather than into your hand - that can hurt.

If you do not want to punch holes in the paper try using a tracing light box and mark the scoring lines on the reverse side of the paper. Some have some very bright light. Another way is to use a window with some very bright sunlight shining through it and mark the scoring lines that way. I have used all of the methods mentioned when a reverse score is needed. A sheet or two of white kleenex as a soft pad added between the parts page and light table or window surface helps in making wing ribbing more pronounced.
