        Overall

        One of THE BEST skis I have ever ridden for sure. Super fun to play around on and very poppy and lightweight with very low swing weight.



        Performance

        This ski performs like no other, nice and soft, but not too soft. Great balance and super low swing weight (I skied Amplid Antidogmas before and the Afterbang felt like it had LOWER swing weight - which surprised me to say the least). It is also a SUPER poppy ski and can ollie/nollie with ease.

        Design

        The all wood design is very clean looking and intriguing.

        Value

        Super good bargin - one of the cheapest skis out for 2010 and they out-preform all the price point skis by far!

        Fit

        I'm 5' 8" and the 177 fits me perfectly. Because it's a symmetrical ski I center mounted it which makes it feel slightly shorter than 177, but still perfect for me.

        Characteristics

        This ski has a very unique flex, the skateboard deck construction gives it a very solid feeling underfoot, but the butter zones in the tip and tail make it very easy to butter.

        Durability

        The main construction will hold up for sure, the only thing I'm worried about is that the lack of a real topsheet makes it very easy to chip and scrape up - but it's all cosmetic.

        Overall

        This ski, is by far the coolest, sickest and most advanced technoligy ski i have riden on in my life. Its sick graphic just brings it out aswell as its amazing preformance. I love this ski and i pray that the make a afterbang 2!

        Performance

        THese are by far the sickest skis i have ever skiied on. They are so smooth and the have the dopest graphics. They totaly sick. They are so nice for rails aswell for kickers. they have perfect wieght not to light but def not heavy. These skis rule

        Design

        The ski is made of wood and defaintly has such a sick design. Keeping it oldschool. As soon as i got them i couldnt wait to rip in them!

        Value

        Of corse these skis are a steal. They are such a good price!

        Fit

        Stupid sizing really! Should be 151 161 and 171. Thats only where i think they screwed up.

        Characteristics

        When i first bought this ski, i thought the flex was going to be insane. But then proved wrong. Supposed to be super flexy. Naah just average. The invaders were twice as flexy. This isnt a bad thing tho. They are so nice for jumps.

        Durability

        Only con of this ski. Its chips and scratches really easy. Considering its wood so it also dosnt look to great. The base of th ski is white therefore the scratches show out easy. only bummer about this ski :(
