AR6 or Afterbangs

[7ATS9ST]

im wondering which 2010 ski will be better for me AR6 or afterbangs i ski 90% rails 10% jumps

Thanks

if you ski 90% rails then their is no question you should get the afterbangs.

Don't compare these two. If you want a ski aimed at using it for rails, that butters amazingly then get 09 or next years Thalls. Since they have been tested over the last season by many, you know for sure that you are getting a ski that will feel good after the 50th day. check this thread for more talk...

will the afterbangs have just as much pop as the invaders? and how light will they be with the skate deck construction? and does anyone know a price because it doesnt say on their website

Thanks

afterbangs no doubt.

Afterbangs for sure man. I got my 177s about a month back. They are $360 and in stock almost everywhere online. (evogear, sierraskis, skis.com, etc.) 90% rails means your a jibber and afterbangs are rail specific skis.

 

[7ATS9ST]

so what about the weight with the skate deck construction because im a small kid 5'4 110

Thanks

Afterbang is such a gay name for a ski. It's typical big corporate suits trying to be cool by naming a ski the latest overblown slang. Be original. If you're a ski company you gotta be ahead of the curve, naming your ski the Afterbang pretty much says we're just trying to catch up with what's cool.

 

[tiger_shart]

acording to line they should have more pop than the invader because of the new 10 string carbon ollie band

Line isn't trying to catch up man, they are one of the most innovative twin tip companies out there. And why wouldn't you pick a ski due to what its called?

 

[traylortrash]

[7ATS9ST]
