I am sure you are all sick of these threads especialy from me but I have altered my criterea and am having a really hard time deciding on skis so I was hoping you guys could help me out. My sizes and styles are 6' 145 lbs. Ski in WI so powder deeper than a foot is near impossible, no big mountain cliff etc. just park. I currently have the 05/06 thrusters the white and blue ones, and am looking for similar skis, that are as flexy if not more so, so I was wondering what most compared, the top three I am looking at now are Walls, LTDs, and STL's  So I was wondering am I way off the mark with these three if so what would be better and if not which of the three should I get.  Thanks for the help

For the price, you cannot go wrong with Invaders if you're just skiing park, and rail groomers from time to time.

I love my Invaders on groomers both forwards and switch.
