volkl wall is a much better ski over all. The only thing the Anthem is superior in is Jibbing.


...def a gear talk post though

fairly similar ski. both perfectly symmetrical, and both with a decently wide underfoot for park
anthem is really soft, while wall is pretty stiff

i ride anthems, so i'd go with it. but i've always wanted to try out the wall

owned the 09 walls and 08 anthems, much preferred the walls, but both alot of fun. I found i preferred the lighter weight and stiffness of the walls.

why would you battle your friend over this? or even debate? maybe he likes stiffer skis and maybe you like softer skis. thats what it comes down to. are you trying to see if people support your side more and use that to qualify your choice as being more superior to his, or what? i dont see the point of this thread. if you were deciding which ski to buy and wanted info on the characteristics of the skis it would make sense. this, however, does not.

Anthem is definitely more fun because it's so soft. But I would prefer the wall on most days.
