you should get the stls cuz this guy said "they totally rock" and the other guy just said "they rock". so that means the stls are better

is that a question? look at the price between both skis right. the one that is more money is better! why? because line is cheap and break! I'd go w/ STL's

yeah i've heard multiple reviews that the anthems are shit. they're heavy as fuck and they can't carve worth a damn. they're pretty much just good for riding switch. go with the STLs for sure.

anthems are just a beefed up invader and the invader is a pretty sweet park ski that rides all mountain surprisingly well and are durable as hell, so i would go the anthems.

i would say stl's if you ski slightly more all mountain than you ski park. Anthems are nice too and cheaper. Is up to you

I witnessed 2 pairs of invaders break in front of me last year and my other friend snapped his in 2. Im pretty sure the invader is the worste ski EVER made. The anthem is the same ski w/ a weaker graff! LINE = crap!

don't hate on line especially when you dont know shit about what they've done to improve the 07 models.

STL only because it's better quality than line. I'm not hatin' on LIne, they're just not as good quality.

I loved the invaders last year...I also broke 3 pairs of them...edges poppin out, and the whole ski breaking...not good quality at all...apparently theyre improved for 07, and the anthem is watsup...im down to give line another shot with the anthems...they def had good customer service...i was enver off the snow

china means better quality due to cheaper labor costs you dumb fuck, because they have chinese making the skis it costs less for labor, sooo therefore they have more money for quality materials, you're a fucking retard, and anyone who argues against "sweatshops" know that they still pay more than the average job in that area, and actually help boost economies

i'd say the Anthems totally totally rock so the two totally's actually would outweigh the original single totally review of the STL and hence the Anthem is the obvious choice in this instance.

i had a pair of the original stl's and they were wicked good riding skis...but god damn they were shitty ass int he quality department...edges blew out soooo fast, topsheets peeled like mad etc etc...had a pair of line pollards last season, hit a few rails/rocks etc on them n had no problem at all...i've been told by many that line HAS fixed the delam and edge problem for the invaders this year and applied the same shit to all the skis so apparently theres no problem what so ever this year in that sense...havn't heard much about the new 4frnt's at all but in my opinion they are not worth that much money...if it were me i
d get the anthems mainly because they are a bit wider (i think??) so they would probly handle all mountain better...and yes, the graphics on them are way doper

Line always made a cheap product! Sweatshops, just where i want my skis to be made (i think not). like I said before Line was the shit 4 years ago and even then the skis fell apart! Plus they SOLDOUT! nothing against anyone who rides them, i just would never by them again!

says the 13 year old kid who has been on the site for a few months. First of all, i am pretty sure Trak Sports sold line to K2.....im pretty sure J. Lev had nothing to do with it. Second.....line makes some killer shit, and always will. I have a a pair of Line Prophet 130s, and they are KILLER. They are the ULTIMATE BC skis. I am trying to get rid of them cause i need something a bit smaller. Look at pollard and his skis, comps like the siver young guns, and how long they have been in the industry. Line is a pioneer in our sport, the first twin tip only company. Get some repect kid......grow up.

ohh btw...i would go with the anthems.....the width of the ski allows it to go anywhere..... which is good.... but the downside is that it does not have that same tough sidewall construction as the STL.

13 huh , I had a pair of line skis the second year they were out (Orange 1260's) and a couple more since. All im saying is I've seen more pairs of Line's break than any other twin. I bet they are awsome in powder when you dont need edge or strength. personally i feel they have always made a cheap product. Its sick they've always only made twins, but core comapnys in my opinion are way better in all aspects!

i think the best part about 4frnt is you pay almost twice as much money for their shit and it falls apart twice as fast also!! every pair of 4frnt's i've seen had cracked edges underfoot and delamming tips coming out of everywhere...yea line has problems with some of their shit...i've ridden them for 2 seasons and havn't had a problem...and they're waaaay cheaper...maybe ppl that constantly break skis should start seriously looking at their riding habits...

haggar...wtf are you talking about?! any person i know that does urban drags their shit around...urban skis are just that...urban skis...i think the cool thing about line is you can buy almost two pairs for the same price as one pair of 4frnt's ahha...might be a litte itty bitty worse quality wise but w/e...

yeah, and i rode my buddies Invaders, and they were tough as nails. He rode them on everything you can think of, rails, boxes, jumps slush, ice, hardpack. EVERYTHING, and you want to know something amazing, they held up. No delaming, no de-edgeing, nothing. Line makes, and made great skis. They were, and still are pretty tough.

what skis besides the invaders fall apart? i know people still rockin the original chronics, and you still see motherships all over the place, they just had a problem in manufacturing last year that cause easy delams, which is supposedly fixed. way to jump on the bandwagon idiot, just because they had problems with one ski, doesn't condem the company qhich actually produced many quality skis. and last time i checked, 4frnt had mad problems with STLs breaking last year.
and for the record, my 04 motherships are still in prime shape and they have over 100 days on them.

yea um lets see this review. i know of 3 or 4 kids who have ridden them, one being matt walker, and they all love the anthem. they claim its nice and buttery (a lil bit stiffer then the invader) and its surprisingly LIGHT! and if u cant get them to carve...then i would suggest u quit skiing and take up hop scotch
