hey just wondering what would ski better for charging groomers, hitting big jumps, going fast, hitting rails and just whipping around like reverts and such. thanks

Atomic punx for sure! they are great all around the mountain and can charge the park better then the afterbangs in my opinion.

i'm not worried about durability. surface upped their durability. plus i'm not asking which ski, simply which does the things that i said in the OP. but thanks though.

and don't judge it cause you hate surface, from what i hear the skis perform great except for they had durability issues, but now that's in the past. bump

the surface no times are super playfull and buttery. I think there like the afterbangs but a little lighter.

They are much more durable, just a better ski. They are fairly similar, but punx is the clear choice here just b/c of the durability issues with surface.

And no one better come in here and try to defend surface's durability, sure they have stepped it up a bit since the nine life, but the durability is still lacking in the no time, and certainely not better than Atomic.

Good idea, ON3P does it right apparently, never heard a bad thing about them, I have yet to see a pair in person though here in Ontario, would be cool to start seeing more people on them.
