i was just wondering why line invaders seem so much cheaper than other skis
invaders are 300. and like armadas are 500.
from what ive heard the line invaders are a really good ski.but why are they so cheap
 
they're a price point cap construction ski that isnt very good quality, they're meant to last you a season and thats all mine did. So a super fun ski, but just isnt amazing quality
 
As much as i like my invaders, I do have to admit that the older models are terrible quality. I heard the newer models are a little better
 
My 07/08 Invaders have been used for about 6 weeks and I could well see them being dead and buried before 10-12. They've got masses of cracks and the camber is really getting messed up. I've replaced them since but I wouldn't expect much from them if you're skiing hard.
 
my friend broke his invaers in 3 weeks and my armadas are perfect minus top sheet chips(happens to all side wall skis
 
this past seasons were crap quality but a great ski. my friends bases seperated from the core so he just sent them back to line and got a new pair. next years are going to be better made for both the invaders and anthems
 
My friend's anthems seemed alright although they barely got used, the top sheet shredded really easy but obviously that's pretty irrelevant.

As said, the Invader is an awesome ski and considering the price I wouldn't worry about it too much. But this said my AR6 managed about 20 weeks before I killed them the year before, hopefully next year's Chronics will too :)
 
I have invaders and my friend has anthems and when i tryed out the anthems they were pretty mutch the invaders but wider
 
i have them and they are a good ski but as everyone says not very good durability ive only skied 2 days on em but i already have chips in the topsheet
