Anthem or T6 - Snowboarding Forum

09-23-2008, 02:25 PM

I'm debating between buying a Burton T6 or a Rome Anthem (I can get a good deal on a T6). Any recommendations on how they are different or which would be a better board for me? I'm 6', 180 lbs, size 11 foot and I ride all mountain and like to carve and go fast, mostly on groomed runs on east coast hardpack so edge control is important, and occasional powder/trees out west. Thanks.

I know next to nothing about the Anthem but I know the Burton t6 is extremely stiff but excellent for groomed runs. I think it would be a great board if your not looking to do too much park.

The t6 chattered at speeds for me and the honey comb in the core isn't that stiff its not all its cracked up to be. I'd go for the anthem over the T6.
