Replying to Diffrence between 08 and 09 anthems? and vs. 2010 chronic

Okayy im not buying skis right now but i have wondered this for a long time and i want to know what skis to keep my eye on. I decsided i LOVE Line Skis, I'm also a big fan of Armada. So i have the line ivaders, i love to jib and hit rails. but this year they are not making invaders and i am afraid to try the A-Bangs because its a 1st year ski.

  I also want to spend a great amount of  time in the half pipe you know just cause. Not as many jumps. Butters are essential in my skiing , buttering is sooo much fun to me. i also like to ski switch alot. I like to have more fun skiing and be super smooth and stylish, and not to get to techy. although, i just learned lip unnatural to natural 270 out on boxes and is one of the funnest tricks i can do right now. anyways back to the point i want a fun ski, anthems look sick but what is the difference between 08 and 09 anthems? because if they are the same Im debating between the BA wolf one from 2008 or the Octoland top sheets. and i have also looked at the Chronic, how stiff is it? because it would be more i deal for pipe but i still want to have funn. and any ski suggestions from  armada?
