Im 6'1 185lbs and havent had any problems with my 178's yet... I butter and flex them hard on a regular basis. Im sure you could snap them on a big jump if you bit it hard enough though

$150 is a great deal for those. You might break them sometime but you'll probably get atleast $150 out of them.

Do you have this years, or last years models? I bought some of last years from a kid on NS, but ended up reselling them to one of my buddies because I know that they were notorious for delamming. Now I'm strapped for cash, but am still planning on getting the '07 models. But if they're just gonna fall apart too, i'll say fuck it and get something else.

yeah i'm 135lbs and these skis a real easy to push around but they definatly kick back so it even it all out. You might just power through this ski though, check a stiffer ski if your willing to spend some extra coin(surface, watch life or volkl, karmas)

Yeah man i was thinking about getting these two. Got some chronics 177 and was just wondering how these bad boys would be for me. I;m 6 foot 235. Just wondering if they are comparable to my old 1260. Kind of wanted something strictly for the park

No my bad i ski in indiana and just want something for the park to jib with... something that is way less stiffer and funner to play around on... Just kind of scared its not a strong/ durable enough ski for me...

im in the same position, i think im just gonna use them to mix things up and for rails and boxes. Cus i def dont wanna be using any of my nicer skis for shit like the creek gap we did today. Ice ruined my bases.

I just bought some Invaders today. I'm 5'9" 140 so I'm curious to see how they'll be. They'll be my first twin tips, I've been using skiboards for a few years now and finally made the upgrade.

What is the deal with them coming apart?
