i'm sure they'll do well. whatever you prefer. if you like fat skis in teh park, you'll love i've never skied them, so i could be completely wrong, but you can get used to just about any ski if you try hard.

I don't think ski width matters anymore, it's all in the eyes of the beyholder. If you like fat skis in the park, you'll like them. I wouldn't base how they do in the park, purely because some people hate fat skis in the park.

yup it is a sick ski period. good anywhere anytime. depending on how much pow you ski, i would say don't center mount them. go back anywhere from 2-4 cm back from center. i had em like 1cm back from center and i thought they skied great, but i'm a bit bigger, so i would sink a bit in deep pow, but that is just from the center mount.

I think Lineskier just pulls shit out of his arse. I'm quite sure he hasn't skied even 25% of the sticks he gives feedback about.

In my first posts, I never give my opinion on the ski, I just tell people that only he can make that decision. If some guy is asking about the invaders, I don't need to have them to tell them they're center mounted, symetrical, and very soft. They're just simple facts about the ski, which is what people are looking for. People giving their opinions on skis is most of the time worthless, because everyone likes their skis a little different. Next time you catch me doing something wrong, call me out, but I don't think I've given bad advice in this particular post.
