so i've had my afterbangs for the last three years and i feel like they are about to crap out on me. They have 6 inches of edge missing underfoot and the ski is more than halfway eaten through. Both skis have had the edges at the tail pull out, and i've had to rivet both at the tip when they started to delam.
So i need a new ski. I want something that will handle similarly to the afterbang but something that is a bit stiffer, has a bit of a faster base and has a more normal construction. Throw me some suggestions.
My first thought was the chronic. I tried out my buddy's 2010 chronics (the ones with 85mm waist) and liked them and would probably buy a pair if i could find them but i'm not so sure about the chronic cryptonites, or this years chronics as they are a little wider (and i've heard stiffer?)
So if anyone can clear up the difference between the chronic and chronic cryptonite for me please do so, but also shoot me some ideas for a new ski! otherwise +K for helpful shit
