I've been looking for a new set of skis for next year since my afterbangs are pretty rough after holdon up for 3 years. So I ride about 95% park and 5% groomers, and am a beginner-intermediate. I've been looking at the line chronics, line afterbangs, salomon threats, or the salomon pro pipes. Which one woul best fit? +Kkk for good responses!

out of those, chronics.
The afterbangs are shit, threats are shit, and i don't know about the other ones.

But i'm surprised your afterbangs even lasted more than one season.
chronics will give you the best bang for your buck

if it HAS to be something in the list then the chronics


but if u want any other seggestions

Soft flex: K2 Domains-extremely good ski most anyone you ask will tell u they love them

Mid flex: surface no time-some of the earlier models broke easy, but i herd they fixed that, and they're agreat ski!

Stiff flex: Armada El Rey's- the ski i will be riding next year, very poppy, they're armada so you know they're a good ski, also quite affordable

hope this helps
