[L.U.P.E.]

They're just Anthems with a different graphic

 

[tonyflow1]

affirmitive

i got the anthems after rocking invaders and i noticed quite a of weight difference. still probably a light ski nonetheless

 

[L.U.P.E.]

well ive heard there terible in pow, but they should be a fun ski to ride in the park?

What are you going to be skiing mainly?Everyone used to go on about how great anthems were on here.I've never skied them so can't comment on them but they aren't going to be that great in powder as they are only 93 at the waist.

 

[L.U.P.E.]

im going to be in the park most of the time will they be a fun and capable ski?

Try searching for Anthems there is heaps of info on them on here, they are supposed to be a great park ski

well the weight can be a problem, they r by no means heavy but not light. my friends were pretty heavy with px12s, but my friends anthems with jesters seemed a lot better. so just make sure u put good bindings on them

I have them and love them. If you ski almost all park, this is the best ski you can get for that price. Super playful, great for rails and butters, good for jumps and pipe and the graphic is orgasmic pollard-goodness.

Only complaint is durability, and the top sheet chips a lot. I had a edge pull out at my tail after only a dozen days, but I glued it back on. Don't expect more than 1-2 seasons of heavy use.

Its harder to carve them than a traditional shaped ski, but still possible. (me on octos below)

^ once you get used to them they'll carve just fine. super fun ski for sure!

So sick, I ski alot of pow (as much as the east coast will offer me haha) and the anthems (octos) fair fine, no float haha, but all the more face shots. Amazing for rails, great on jumps with that fat underfoot tons of stability, an awesome ski, have fun
