My anthems got rockered

soo, after a long year of my fat ass landing backseat on my 08 anthems, they have lost all chamber and even have a little tail rocker now. They question is, is this pair of skis way more liable to snap on me in their current rockered condition?

I would say so, however, this has happened to others here on NS. I think it was Monstertruckk who has a pair of (SELF-Rockered) Armada T-Halls or something like that....

im thinkin bout rockering an old pair of skis. i wonder if it'll work if i keep it stretched with some strong ass clips or something from now until winter.

so has the structural integrity of the ski decreased, ie should i get new ones... since i have never rode a rockered ski, what can i anticipate here?

naa, try to warranty but if that doesn't work ride them as long as you can, or get some cheap end of the season sale skis.  I broke the tail of one of my chronics comming around on a spin and landing on a bumped out landing and I got it warrantied, but otherwise would have rode it next season since it would have been worth nothing selling it like I had planned to do.

if theyre rocked in the tail then any backseat landing youll probably go over backwards. i think the ski itself should be fine itll just feel a little weird. at least now you can go switch in pow

my ARVs did it, and i notice nothing negative about them.  The tips flop a bit sometimes, but nothing that affects performance in any way.

This season I got a pair of the scarface t-halls brand new from my shop since they were dirt cheap. I rode them for 5 days and rockered the tips so I sent them in and got this years ar6 of warranty. I rode those for about a month and the tips and tails are rockered so I just sent them back in.

My bacons have a rockered tail after an epic tree crash skiing switch.  Shit happens if you ski hard.
