Line Afterbang 2015/16, bindings & mounting

So I'm doing a season this winter in Risoul and have always liked park skiing although I'm distinctly below average. I have some Blackcrow Viators 2015 which are an all mountian park ski but quite stiff so cover me for bigger air etc.

I've posted before for ski advice and for some soft jib/butter skis was reccomended line afterbangs. Is there much difference between the 2015 and 2016 apart from price and graphics?

Also have no idea about bindings, I've got marker free 10s on my crows which have never caused me any problems. Should they be centre mounted etc?

yo, how much do you weigh? your binding choice depends on pretty much that and of course your skiing abilities.
for the mount, a-bangs are a symmetric twin so true center is the way to go!

i'd definitely steer away from marker free 10 at your weight! free 10 is a binding for kids and if you really push it, you'll break it for sure. there's a sticky thread here in gear talk with binging suggestions depenging on your skills!

I don't believe their has been any change in the afterbang since the 2014 neon ski. You can find those for cheap too, on eBay they're $199
