do you mostly hit jumps or? because the afterbang isn't bad on jumps but isn't really the ski either

those skis seem too soft to handle a lot of jumps if you could look into the lte

Do you mind me asking why those are the only two skis to chose from?

yeah its cuz i originally bought the afterbangs, and then my younger bro went out to buy skis at a sale and bought the bullet 84s, hes only 5 5 and realised his skis are bigger than mine.. so now i basically have the choise between the 2. get it?

given the situation that you already have both i would recomend trying both and see which you like more and then sell the second pair and/or give to your brother.

i would personally go afterbang since it fits my riding style more. you could probs fit the boots your self too.

the bullets are really nice if you are light weight, they have much better quality control than line, and much better flex points due to sandwich construction!
