I just got an offer for the 2008 invaders. I can buy them today... But i wonder:
* I only ski park, so they're perfect, rigth?
* I am 5,8 feet tall and will buy the 178 ain't that rigth (i will have them next year too)?
* Have there been many troubels with line skis since K2 bought LIne? Because I have to order them from far away, so I hope i don't have to send them back because of basic warranty problems....

Thanks for the help!

About 600 dollars with bindings (look PX12 JIb). You maybe think it's expencive, but here in Norway it's quite cheap... ( This year I have the STL's and i payed just above 900 dollers for them, with bindings thouht)

Yeah I know the prices are sick compared to yours... Its mostly like they add a zero and convert it to norwegian kroner... Like fujative: in the states : 300 dollars In norway: 3000 kroner....Hilarious! I hope i'll like them too ;)

Yeah i will post some pics... They only had one pair, but you might buy the new seths or hellbents from there... send a mail to bjarne@groseth-sport.no..... but remember that's skis are much more expencive in norway!

line is owned by k2 and that probably means that lines, like k2s are now made in china, not canada. so id be skeptical. Volkl is owned by k2 as well but they're still made in germany. i hope lines arent made in china

Wait, STLs for 900 in kr, i'm so confused. Were the lines 600 US or kr. If 600kr, and its 6->1 that's mad cheap, but if dollars why not just order from a store out here or have someone order for you then ship, seems way cheaper.

lines are made in china but they are still good skis. k2 has beenmaking skis in china for year and they still sell a pretty durable pair of skis.
