Anybody know anything about them. I'm looking to get something like my invader but want a ski that is a little more solid but light weight as well. From what i've hears, chronics are heavy. Anyone got any info?

chronics arent that heavy at all they got a bit of swing weight but the pop makes up for it

yeah the chronic sounds like a good idea for you. the anthem wouldnt be bad either it will ski a little better with 10mm more underfoot. the chronic is stable and solid as hell. its the exact same ski as last year except they changed the sidewall and made them slanted to prevent delam and made the sidewally thicker

get the new blends, they are 100 underfoot now and build solid with a fat sidewall. those would be a sick ski that would RIP outside of the park

if you want something like the invaders, go with anthems, i love mine and they are a little stiffer than invaders but you can still butter pretty easily.

from personal experience i can tell you that chronics are an awesome all mountain ski and they kill the park too... they'll take anything you throw at them.

I saw a Line rep at my local hill using them. They look ill, but I have no idea how they ski. But sounds like what your looking for.

what about that new g-cut where its a small turn radius in the tail, think it'd make riding switch weird or unstable?
