What are the Antics?
The Antics are the newest addition to the Bluehouse fleet. This bamboo core, twin-tip park ski is the lightest, quickest and best ski for riders aiming to perfect their skills in the terrain park. The Antics were designed for terrain park skiers, and half-pipe riders. Coincidentally, the Antics ski has become a favorite among telemarkers and backcountry touring skiers even winning a Telemark Skiers Magazine award. This reality is a result of the lightweight bamboo core and semi-fat 83 mm mid ski width.
Are the Antics a Good Ski for Me?
The bamboo core stiffened with fiberglass sandwich construction has an ideal poppy flex for any type of skiing. You don’t have to be a master of the park or powder to enjoy the Antics. The flex stiffness rating is medium offering plenty of spring to aggressive rider but still giving for enjoyable cruisers.
Spin, grab, flip, slide, butter, jib, switch. If these words make sense to you, you’re definitely a candidate for the Antics. The Antics were designed by park skiers for park skiers.
A pair of the Antics is for anyone trying to progress in the freestyle domain. The Antics are the most maneuverable skis for riders and jumpers. With the Antics, you can now finish your spins and stomp your landings.
The Antics are the perfectly shaped park ski for skiing in the pipe, jumps, and urban skiing. The ski is lightweight and not too wide. At 83 mm in the middle of the ski, there is no swing weight in the air but enough width to stomp. The Antics width gives for super quick spins and the side-cut allows for firm edge hold. The Antics claims a solid flex, not too soft, great for bigger jumps.

“Whenever I do a switch double rodeo 10, if I come in a little nose heavy, the ski holds solid and keeps me up. Whenever I want to hop up on a rail or jump, it isn’t heavy so I can easily pop right up.”
Nick Keefer, Park City UT
“I love my Antics because they’re versatile, light, strong, and the graphics are sick. You can’t go wrong with them in the park. They kill it everywhere. Great sidecut too.”
Stuart Lake, Spring City UT
“I love to ski the park and pipe and the Antics are the best shaped ski I’ve ever ridden. The flex and shape make these skis ideal for working on my tricks. These skis are also super fun to butter on and lightweight for rail jamming.”
Brett Spencer, Vermont
“I’m 5’10” and enjoy backcountry skiing. I bought a pair of the Antics 182 because I couldn’t find a better deal for a ski around 85 mm underfoot. The ski is incredibly light making my ascent that much more enjoyable. Also, they really ski well in the powder. Just feels so natural.”
