Four years in development and it only took one for the Afterbang to become the #1 ski for Line. Three seasons later and there is still nothing quite like it. The Afterbang is Jib to the core and jammed full of wild technology only found here. For starters, Line uses Skate Deck Construction, a 7 ply maple veneer core that is up to 5 times more durable to impact than traditional sandwich constructions found everywhere else. Translation, when other boards are splitting in two the Afterbang begs for more. Apply other Jib focused features like Carbon Olliebands to make quick work of any handrail with Butter Zones for pressing out every tiny bump and it is easy to see why the Afterbang is so playful. As with any good jib ski the Afterbang is symmetrical in both flex and geometry for a perfect switch feel and balance on rails. From backyard summer sessions to the last day of the season the Afterbang has the goods to butter, press, and slide anything in the world.

Comments about Line Afterbang Skis 2012:
Hey It's Evan here with the Line Afterbang. I give it a 4/5. I really liked it, it has a cool skate construction to it so it's real snappy and poppy. Also It's a symmetrical so you would want to center mount this ski. It's real good on rails. Definitely for that rail rider whose riding around in the towrope parks.

Comments about Line Afterbang Skis 2012:
Hey I'm Kevin. I just got off the line After bang. I'm not a park rat, I'll admit to that, but it's a good all-around ski. I'll do some 180s and it was easy to spin. it's not the most poppy ski out here but if you're going to be a jib kid on the rails this is a ski for you. Its very durable with a skate deck construction it turns good, you can skid down the mountain on it. Definitely a park ski, for me it gets 3/5 stars but if your park kid you'll probably get a five out of five.

Comments about Line Afterbang Skis 2012:
Hey I'm here with the Line Afterbangs I give these skis about a 4/5. They're real great for pretty much rail riding. If you are a rail kind of guy these are the skis for you. They don't hold up really well but if you are doing mostly all rails mostly like that this is the ski for you.

Hey this is Micah with Summit Sports. I'm skiing the line Afterbang. While it's Line Afterbang park ski you can beat the **** out of it. Not so much for going and doing a bunch free riding but for actually hitting rails, hitting jumps and you want something you can just beat up and not actually worry about it; you can go with this ski. I give it a 4/5 for overall park ski.

Comments about Line Afterbang Skis 2012:
Hey this is Thom in here with the Line Afterbang. I give this guy 4/5 stars. Comes unchanged other than the graphics. Still has the skate deck construction, still has butter zones. It's just a super fun little ski like it's definitely a park ski, not something you want as your all mountain choice. But if you're in the park most of the time or just looking for something that's going to be snappy fun and an easy ski to mess around on, this is a very very good ski.

Comments about Line Afterbang Skis 2012:
Afterbang skis are so much fun on rails and urban. With the skateboard construction, they're not like any other skis. You can really flex them out on rails and smaller jumps. I found on bigger jumps they seem to wash out a bit. But for anything in the midwest or if you like riding rails all day long then these are the ski for you. Also for the price, you can afford to get a pair.
