personally riding the afterbang in a 155cm. Recently my buddy compared his atomic blogs (185cm) to my abangs and the atomic powder skis, that are 30 cm longer. weighed less than my abangs. so what do you think the heaviest park ski is? +k to serious responses!

My Nordica Ace of Spades are pretty damn weighty. 2 layers of metal will do that.

Bindings come into it too... anything mounted with a FKS180 or Salomon Steel binding is going to feel pretty heavy regardless of what the binding is screwed onto.

I may be stating the obvious here but there is this thing called the internet. It can show you websites of ski manufacturers and on those magical websites it shows the weights of all the different skis. It is magical. 

It would show you the afterbangs are lighter than the blogs and you just have heavier bindings than your friend

My 05-06 Atomic Urban Tripletz were friggen heavy, they've got this neox binding system its like an acient more sh*tty version of the marker schizios. They are heavier that my p100s and almost as heavy as caylors mounted with old black dukes

A-bangs get really heavy after they soak up some water.

K2's are pretty heavy, but that weight is put to use making a solid ski. Weight isn't always a bad thing, it often means the ski ski is build solid.
