mmm, I dont see why I woudl want a ski that if I land backseat on a table bigger than 20 feet I will wash out... Why not get a stiff ski so you can land and support yourself... I dont want a piece of twizzler under my foot, I want a SKI mahfucker.

The Invader is a pure park ski. If that's what you want, it's hard to get much better than the Invader, the only competition being the T-Hall pro. I don't know how many of you saying the hype is true have actually held the ski, but I have, and I'm inclined to agree with you. It's so sick.

Dude, Mikee made Jibberish. What have you done for us lately?

Let him have his opinion. Personally I think the hype is fully deserved, and Line is going to sell a ton of those skis.

 
sorry about that bro, i thought you were saying that the vaders are crap

the only comparism is to the invader is the T-Hall and 06 fujative which is so sick i cant decide whether to get that or invader.

I'd agree with you but I consider the Fujative almost an All-mountain ski. The Invaders and the T-Hall's are the purest of the pure park skis.

i agree^. ironicly, you could buy both the fujatives and the invaders for the price of the thall 300+300=600

I've held them, and flexed em, they're really soft, wouldn't be good for tables over 25 feet unless you land perfect, but you could do true nosebutters and press the shit out of your butters. Symmetrical also, and 300 bucks is damn cheap too, gonna be a sick ski for sure

FUCK BIGGIE
 
we still love u mikee, its just it seems to me a few people on here have a problem with your judgement calls nuthing to be ashamed of, so just keep on keepin on and youll be fine.

I dont get the idea that park ski means soft ski. I dont want a soft ski for park... I want a ski that can support me on landings. Something soft just annoys me, but I dunno, maybe you guys like it.. I just dont get it.

when was the last time you did a butter?^

Not to say i completely disagree with you, but park skis are sorta being split up into jib skis, for butters and rails, and jumping skis that are stiffer for tables and pipe,

FUCK BIGGIE
 
Cooker was using them the whole day at the 100f + table at the Jumpopotamus in Laax. Didnt seem like he had any problems with them...

 
^yeah thast cause he is a pro most people arent as good as him. but i am still probably getting the invaders or fujatives next year as well.

 
I'm not a pro and use them on 40-50 footers all the time without problems.

Skishore has held them, I have been riding them. There's a difference. The only people who will have a problem with them on big tables are fatasses with chronic backseat landing problems.

 
^REALLY??? OMG. COKER IS A PRO! Of course the ski is gonna wash out if you land the wrong way. But if you do bigger jumps you dont want to land wrong anyway, its gonna hurt your shins really bad.

 
still, I just dont think that the buttering ability of a ski is more important than atbility and power and not washing out... Its just an opinion.

He's right, even if you have a stiff ski, it will gradually become softer and be better for butters. What you need for butters: commitment and weight, if you have stiff skis. Soft skis: just lean forward or back no problem, they'll butter like shiznitz. It takes more skill to butter with Mojos than with Fujis.

getting back on topic... i wouldn't know what the hell to trust on this site, because so many people say shit's amazing because of the graphics or what people tell them. sometimes it's hard to come to a conclusion of your own. i too, wouldn't like a completely soft ski that's going to feel like a wet noodle under my foot, but that's just personal preference.

stick that in your pipe and smoke it!

I would guess that they are the lightest of all wood core twins. DB carbon fiber skis might be lighter but they aren't wood cores.

 
^we are actually talking about skis

all you have to do is ride hard and you'll get ridden hard
