A distro where only the kernel is rolling and cutting edge while the rest is slower paced sounds like the worst of both worlds to me.

My favorite part of Arch is the rolling packages and my least favorite is the rolling kernel. I dislike having to reboot so often.

You can add the 2 kernel packages to the ignored packages list of pacman and update them manually if needed. Pacman will warn you that it ignored a package update including the currently installed and new package version.

You will not get security and bug fixes but that's what's bothering you, I think.
