Anyone ride Line Afterbang? How does the core feel?

ey guys, nah, I'm no line fan, just thought the skate laminate construction was interesting.  I've got a lil snowboard company and might play around with the horizontal laminate core.  Figured a few might have ridden them.

It looks like their aim is for butters
How do they stack up against similar skiis as far as pop in the park and stability at high speed?

Cheers!

Out of the park, they are equal to two 2x4's and some duct tape.

super weird ride. i can totally feel the hinge points in front and just behind the binding. it is made for butters and rails. mine are chipping on the tips and tails, and just the normal edge damage from rails. pretty slow though. extruded bases will do that...
