So i get next years anthems next week, as well as some demo's to play around on, so i'm debating on rockering my current ones. my thoughts are they might be toooo soft and just wash out on me?
i'm a big guy, 200 pounds, and theyre already super soft (theyve taken a beating) so im concerned how theyll hold up? otherwise they become my urban skis

for buttering? or riding pow? either would be mildly retarded on an anthem, but still a fun experiment!

If its your only ski- then no. If its an extra set that you dont care for much anymore, then go for it.

do it, they will ski totally different, and its mad fun for warm spring conditions. ive been riding some rockered STLS for most of this season.

My anthems were so beat that they didn't have any camber left.. and when you held them together, indeed they rockered slightly. There were a lot of fun like that.. i'd say if you don't want to sell them, or don't really have much purpose for them, by all means, try it out. Just don't overdo it though.
