hey guys whatcha think ?I currently have the invader 08-09 and i have a great deal on the el rey which is the same year i think 08-09.I have been on the invader for a season now and i love it just my style ski super buttery light and stuff.I do jibs and jumps i don't ride backcountry.Almost 100% park like 8-10 days in the year when there is fresh snow , i can see the invader don't do that well in the puwda but it doesn't bother me ...So whatcha think should i get the el rey or should i just keep the invader ?

I ride the 08-09 El Reys....i don't personally think they'll match your style if you like a buttery ski. They are generally pretty stiff, especially if your a lighter weight skier. As he stated above ^ look into the T-Halls, Domains or see if you can pick up a pair of Anthems...they would more likely be what your looking for.

Agreed with above, look for a pair of anthems, the el reys are more all mountain stiffer ski. And they'll feel hella stiff coming from invaders. Anthems, t-halls, invaders, domains, or maybe halo's. Anthems would be a pretty sweeet deal for you.
