Line Afterbang Ski

The Line Afterbang is a revolution in park ski construction, one that replaces traditional topsheet-sidewall-core layup with a single element straight from the skate origins of park and pipe: hardrock maple. Built like a skateboard deck, the Afterbang starts as a 7-ply maple blank with carbon stringers, and adds just a base, metal edges, and a protective fiberglass coat on top to complete the package. It butters, pops, and rails like nothing you’ve ever ridden, and it just might change the ski industry forever.

  • Continuous 7-ply maple Deck Construction provides strength, durability, and pure wood flex
  • Carbon stringers amplify pop without adding weight
  • Center mount Symmetrical Geometry optimizes park and pipe performance
  • Fatty Base & Edge sidewall construction takes a beating on the hill and on the tuning table
  • Topsheet art by Jim & Jimbo Phillips (yes, that Jim Phillips)

Bottom Line: You be the judge.

Move up. Landings and speed will improve with the length.

I got these skis and fell in love. Now take in mind that I am very loyal to line and have been for 3 years now but these skis are epic. The butter zones are stellar and the have excellent snap. They are perfect weight not to heavy nor to light. I have skied on all 3 sizes, I am 5'9" and 125 lbs. The 155s are great for butters, and presses. The 166s are pretty good for smaller jumps and some buttering. The 177s which i own do pretty good for butters, they hold up great in the park, and on jumps are perfect. I love taking these thing for a back country thrash session, and have not broken yet

I own anthems, and I'd say afterbangs are more snappy, and a little stiffer. Anthems are just soft and buttery. And DEFINITELY get 177's. 166 is TINY.

i can't attest to skiing on last years anthem, but as far as sizing, you could go with either 166 or 177. 177 will have more speed, but for your height, will be harder to control. 166 you'll definitely whip around. think about your riding style. if you're going big, go with bigger sticks.

such a fun ski... the butter zone is so easy to light up. It is easy to go at slow speed and does remarkably well at higher speeds. Lock it up with a Jester or Griffon and it is money.

The '77 may be pretty small for you. It's a true twin, center mount ski and is pretty soft way up at the tips and tails. If you want a Line jib ski, I'd say check out the Chronic as it's more solid and still super good for freestyle skiing. Line is batting around the idea of a bigger Afterbang ski for next season, so keep an eye out.

These skis definitely handle jumps pretty well for a softer ski. Not as great as some of the stiffer skis out there but they should be fine for anything 40' and under. If you mostly shred park on the east or midwest these skis will be a good choice...you will want to go bigger than the 155cm that's on here though.

I'm tempted to say the 166 is better... but I know that for now it is too long. The 155 should get you by for that long, but definitely only in the park.

They are just a bit stiffer overall because more wood is used in the tips and tails.

I own anthems, and I've flexed afterbangs, and I'm pretty sure they are a little stiffer than anthems...
