Anthems on Rails??

I have a great deal on some Anthems and I would like to get them.  The only thing that I am worried about is their width.  With a 93mm waist would doing a lot of rails be tough?  and how would the swing weight on the Anthems be?  I want a ski that can perform well on rails mid sized jumps.  Thank you for any help, it is very much appreciated

way i see it, more waist means more surface to slide on. and they're symmetrical so swing weight is like equal on both sides

they work well, not as awesome as a skinnier ski, but they still work just fine, I have a used pair I want to sell and they come with bindings if youre interested

anthems kill rails, the width just makes balance easyer

might be a bit tougher to spin a 450 or 630 on, but its those are difficult no matter what skis you use
