Rode my Invaders.........

[thatoneguyattyrol]

So I finally got out on my invaders yesterday and Im not sure how I feel yet....

They ski great, the butterzones are sic, but they feel so fucking short from toe to tip......I am having a hard time imagining them over big jumps.

Anyone else notice this?

 

[t3shellvenom]

is this cuz you maybe bought them to small?

 

[C.Stone]

you are very smart

 

[thatoneguyattyrol]

179's go up to my eyes while standing in my boots.

 

[t3shellvenom]

thats good size, i dont know what it coild be

 

[Luc.]

maybe because they are trye centerd(they ARE true centered right?) u might not be used to having a shorter nose...so they fell really short...no worries u will get used to them soon enough

 

[Derelicte]

youll get used to it in like a week or less

 

[Aseets]

Yah you may have been used to longer skis, but trust the ski, they aren't short at all and are designed to be a sick park ski. I gues if you ever feel like you have a short nose, just look back and say, "Damn look at that tail!"

 

[thatoneguyattyrol]

haha i know yea, i just wish they had made a longer version.

I have the 179 chron wides too....

 

[Dinkz]

get used to them and then maybe ull start to like them

 

[Lineskier-101]

I've told people a million times, get 178's unless your under 5 feet, they ski EXTREMELY short.

 

[thatoneguyattyrol]

using reactors, they are set a bit back.

 

[thatoneguyattyrol]

they do, im 5'10 and I did get the 178's.

its no worries early season, I just usually like longer skis on jumps and the way the invaders feel 189 would have been perfect, but dont exist to my knowledge.

 

[thatoneguyattyrol]

yes they are at true center, we were talking about the holes on the chron wides.

 

[Jake...]

reactors = (N)

 

[thatoneguyattyrol]

(N) is what?

 

[Aseets]

(N) is cool?

 

[thatoneguyattyrol]

k, well...im really surprised im the first to bring this size issue up. Even more surprised they didnt make a 188

 

[SkiingLlama]

I think i will be able to get on mine tomarrow.

 

[Aseets]

^You're not the first to bring it up, there is a thread dedicated to "if enough people complain line will maker a larger invader", thats not the title but trust me thats what its about.
