anthems are lighter but not even close to being as stable as the dumonts

disregard this post. please.

as far as one ski compared to the other, unmounted, dumonts are wayyy lighter due to the foam core. my anthems are pretty dang heavy, but when it comes to which one is more stable? anthem, hands down...

Dumonts have a wood core... So do Anthems. Sorry, I have no input for you but Anthems are pretty light, I have 178s.

this years dumonts got edge reinforcements next years has that two layers of armor junk so each year for dumonts got pretty killer construction. anthems are nice to though. there cheaper and symetrical etc. either are nice
