No, snowboarder don't have full tilts, therefore they cannot afterbang. What kind of question is this?

Everyone loved it

Afterbang was invented by snowboarders...as a joke. The funniest part of the joke, though, is how skiers started doing it seriously like 8 years later haha. Google Robot Food, ya fucking schmucks.

All I saw was an awesome segment by Travis Parker. Didn't really look like he was trying to aferbang, nor was afterbang ever mentioned?

Came here to say almost the same thing, it was created as a joke. It was a thing you did after fucking up a trick.

Yeah but it's still just as much of a joke. And if anyone afterbangs in a serious way they're just retarded

Yeah i agree. The only time I've ever done it was when i was just goofing with friends. Besides, there are very few times that you should be serious while skiing

I afterbang to the bathroom when I have to take a shit in the middle of the night. I'm pretty sure it was created by Chris brown after he punched Rihanna in the face... Fuck the haters.
