i am looking to get new park skis for next year and seriously thinking about the bluehouse antics but i have heard that bluehouse has some durability issues, also i have been riding the line chronic the past two years and beat them to hell.
i want to know how the antics will compare to the chronic in terms of stability on kickers and harder rail hits

I have the 2013 Antics and I love them so far. The bases hold wax relatively well and the edges are holding up amazingly well for the amount of rails I do (no cracks, bends, big dings). The only problem so far is that the topsheet around the sidewall on the tip and tail chips more than other skis.
I've skied them about 20+ days so far this year and they are very stable at high speed, charging down steeper groomers, and variable conditions. This year i have skied in almost every condition except blower pow. Great in man made crusty snow, pack powder, slush, and ice. I detuned about 4 inches infront of and behind underfoot and they can still hold an edge very well.
They are a great jump ski. Stiffer, so you don't loop out if you land backseat. Pressing and other jib fuckery is alittle harder on Antics, but you get used to it after a while. You don't notice the taper when riding switch, no catchy feel or trouble turning.
All around I think they are a great ski for the money. Light, poppy, and solid. PM me if you have anymore questions.
