my freind has them and compared to me he has a slightly easier time on rails than i do with my anthems but, overall i think anthem holds up better, you can do bigger stuff, and still intricate stuff on boxes and rails Anthems if you can afford the extra dough is most def worth it.

depending on the size of jumps you are hitting you might want a wider/stiffer ski=more stability. if you're only hitting smaller jumps, like 30-40ft n less and rails, then its not going to make a huge diff.

Don't get invaders if you don't hit rails at all that's just silly go for the chronics or the anthems...

4FRNT TNK and Armada Pipecleaner are probably the two best jump skis out there.

i love my invaiders.

theyre great on rails and jumps both but iv never tried the anthems so those guys ^^^ might be right,

you might want the anthems for more stability . but invaiders are awesome :-)

do yourself a favor and dont buy the invaders for jumps cuz you will wash out. buy something a little stiffer and wider.

chronics slay everything. they hold up amazingly on rails and jumps. ive beat the shit outta mine for two seasons, never gotten a tune up or wax and theyre fine.

For rails the invaders are great but on jumps and the the rest of the mountain they are not a very good choice, they are not stiff enough at all.

 the invaders are a strict rail and very small jump ski so if your not going to be hitting rails then dont go with it, get anthems. And i dont really trust the afterbangs so we will just have to see how those are next season
