they changed the construction of it this coming year, the top sheet is like a harder plastic, and they are user a stronger glue to hold the layers together

My buddy has Invaders, the 05/06 ones. Want to know something.....THEY ARE STILL TOGETHER. Two seasons hitting 40 foot tables, urban, pipe, everything you can think of. They are still ticking. They are not the made in canada ones, they are the ones made in china, still together. They are a great ski. I tryed them, and fun as hell for pure park. You know what, go to a ski shop, ask the tech there what he would sugest. I know you don't want to do that, and you think you know exactly what you want. But this site is just full of fucking lemmings that say they know, but don't know shit about what they are talking about.

( Im sorry, if your under 6 feet, and 150 lbs, YOU DON"T ROCK ANYTHING OVER 175cms in length EVER.......it will make you ski WORSE NOT BETTER. Centre mounting a non symetrical ski IS BAD, it fucks with the flex as proper turning radious, camber and other aspects. Tyrolia make an AWSOME binding, the s810 is awsome for most people, i use them and they hold up, nobody on this site excluding pros NEED FKS, or s916 race stock bindings.) Thats my advice.

I agree with almost everything you said...but no one over 110 lbs. should use s810s. ever.

you sir are an idiot
i'm 6'1" and i ride 177's you shouldn't be on super long skis there's no point, unless you're a pro you don't need bindings with DIN's of 18 not do you need 188 cm park skis

I destroy bindings and I am no where near pro.  I would smash some 810s putting them on my feet.  Bad news bears....

im a pro hoe...can i use fks bindings?

ur an idiot for telling other people what to do u have no idea who anyone is or how good of a skier they are. theres alot of people out there that shred just as hard as alot of "pros" and they like 18 din bindings its not up to peeps on newschoolers to decide if they deserve them or not(although they proly don't)...its not all about height and weight either with ski length and din its about strength, how fast u ski, and how big you go.

as for matman saying noone under 6 ft 150lbs should ride a ski over 175cm, thats pretty funny.

i have the 06-07 invaders. they are definatly fixed. I skied them for almost a full year and they are still in perfect condition. A few small pieces missing in the top sheet. but they are a solid ski, I would recomend them to anyone.

I have the 06/07 invaders and they are amazing.  Still together.  Only one very small delam on the trail.  Some topsheet chips.  Most fun ski I have ever riden.  If you dont get them(they are cheap as hell)  i dont know what to say.
