Hey NS, I was just wondering what your opinions are on these skis. What ones do you think are better?
I want one of them, but I'm not sure what ones are better. Good opinions = +K Thanks! BTW I ski 60-70% park and the rest all mountain.

I cant speak for the anthem, but the chronic was a great all mountain park ski. its a stiffer park ski so it can hold its own outside of the park.

Both are solid skis, but if you're riding more than just park, the chronics are a better choice, as they're stiffer, (better on groomers), and they are better for large jumps.

What kind of stuff do you do in the park? More rails and butters or more jumps?

I find your judgment incredibly flawed, although the chronics are stiff and decent for jumps they are more of an all mountain ski, if your riding park all day, the Anthem should be the choice of ski, there buttery and fun and also hold up great on the jump line...

anthems: wider, soft park ski, mainly for rails, symmetrical
chronic: thinner, stiffer, directional, all mountain, more for jumps

if you're talking about the chronic and not the chryptonite- they're 85 underfoot and fairly stiff, symmetric flex, and a great park ski to slay big jumps and rails. The chryptonite is a little wider so it makes a better all mountain ski but still slays the park. If you look at the line team almost all of them slay the park on the chryptonite these days. I have a pair of chronics that are still in plastic for sale if you're interested.

if your light, go anthems, but if your going to be hitting big booters all day (40+ ft.) go for the chronics
