Can someone help me. I dont know which 2011 ski to get. I want something close to the line anthems but they're not making them next year. I have heard about the atomic patents but i like lines? Any ideas? They have to be pretty close to the anthems dimensionally and they cannot be stiff.
Thanks

nope, those are the chronic, except symmetrical and with skate deck tech.

Just get some older anthems, no need to waste money to get next years ski, when you want a ski that has been made before. Love my anthems, would be a great choice.

Patents are really soft so they may be a good replacement for anthems.

Definitely patents

Although (I'm slightly embarrassed to admit... trend whore) I'm an anthem rider. So soft, buttery, wide, light and easy to land on. But the patents sound like superior skis. All I can say is that anthems are very good. No idea how much (if at all) the patents are better

i have never ridden anthems but i have rode and own patents. they ride very similar to how i think the anthems would ride. they are extremely soft, wide buttery, and have similar dimensions

go atomic. i love my punx. very similar ski to my old chronic blends. aside from width. but edge hold and flex is awesome and they are easier to control. and they've held up better than i expected them to.
