Anthems are shit all mountain. Anything centered or symmetrical will not be a great all mountain ski. Foils would be an ok choice, they're narrow for a pow skis, but but good for everything else. You should also look at Seths or Scratch BC's.

i have the 174 foils and they are exactly what you want. i can take them anywhere. they are great in park, sick in bumps and all mountain, and wide enough to handle some powder.

I have those exact foils and i think their great. they have good pop and i love jumping with them. plus i think they have one of the sickest graffics. but anthems are sweet.
