The Hood-Anzer prominence model (Hood and Anzer, 1990) is modified to include magnetic shear. The stability properties of the model are then assessed to see if significant magnetic shear can stabilize ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) disturbances. It is shown that a strong shear gradient in the magnetic field near the base of the prominence provides a stabilizing effect and realistic prominence heights are indeed possible.
