Does the top sheet on the afterbang come off like a skateboard?? In the video it sure sounds like and i dont want a ski that looks like the bottom of a skateboard.

Hm...from what i hear there is minimal delamination and chipping, however, i fucking hate it when i chip the tail on my skateboard. Might wait a year or so and see if they are still around and then try them.

The topsheets on the afterbang are actually made of ice so you have to leave them outside.

They only scratch about 2 mm from the edge, leaving the actual graphic fine. not too many darkslides going down on skis. But I enjoi the haggard look, show your scars with pride my man.

Saw a fairly well used set on the mountain yesterday. Yes, the skis had about 5-10mm of bare wood exposed on the top sheets around the edges of the sidewall.

really?? because after reading this thread, it sounds like everyone misinterpreted your initial question due some grammatical problems. I think you were saying "does the ski come off as (give the impression of) a skateboard deck graphic. Is that what you are trying to ask?

I interpreted the question as, on a skate board the graphic is on the bottom and when you slide rail it smears at scratches off leaving virtually no graphic just scratches and smeared paint. He was wondering if the topsheet on the a-bang would scratch and smear like the bottom of a skate board does.
