Depends if you want a symmetrical ski or not, personally, I'd go for the AR6, but the walls would be a good choice too. anthems are ok, but are cap construction and have, slow extruded bases.
next time, the searchbar is your friend.

Anthem will be a bit too small and soft for you probably, consider the Step-up next year (stiffer, longer, version of the Afterbang). The wall will be the stiffest, and the longest at 185, it's symmetrical, so carving switch and spinning around on rails is awesome. The AR6 is probably one of the best skis out there right now, soft enough to butter, stiff enough to land the biggest jumps (Jacob Wester is hitting the JOSS jumps with them...), super durable, really fun ski. If it were me I'd go with the 181 AR6.

i'd go with the walls. super solid ski for a big guy like, but are pretty easy to flex into a butter if you press. I have had them and rode them over 50 days this season and they have held up beautifully.

i would really reccomend the ar6's if those are your choices. I have the anthems and love them but 178 might not be big enough. And i have skied the walls several times and absolutley hated them, They're heavy and seem lifeless.
