They are stiffer than the 07' invaders because they have a carbon fiber stringer (like the 08'invaders too) and the extra width makes them stiffer. I am under the impression that it is exactly the same as the invader but fatter. I want them alot and I will get them for sure.
i have some and they are stiffer then the 07 invaders but still soft they rip everywhere on the hill and are so good in the park i would recommend them for sure
just have a question i am thinking about getting the line chronic 08 has anyone ridden them and are they good and do you think they will have the problems that they did last year
uhh, well i'm pretty sure the 08 anthems are identical to the 07's. pretty soft, slightly stiffer than the invader. one of the nicest flexing skis out there... i really enjoyed the ride of 'em. you don't even have to think about riding switch, too.
anthems are sick, order my pair a few weeks ago, just waiting for em to come in. supposedly our order has started shipping as of yesterday so our shop should start getting them in
I'd say definitely Anthems. I mean Invaders are kind of your average park ski, whereas Anthems, with a beefy center and true twintip is something lots of people have been waiting for
if the invaders were your average park ski... the anthems would be to.... because they are the exact same ski. The anthems are just a bit wider. Both skis have symmetrical side cut and flex. Both skis have true twin tips. Both skis have a true center mounting position. Same ski. The Anthem is just a touch stiffer than the invader due to its extra width.
