30-60 feet isn't exactly that big of a jump that you should be worried about washing out on.
If you are, it's just you.

your fine up to about 70 or 80 at least. I tried some fujas on a 90 footer and they were good. U'd go for the invaders. I'd get a pair if u could get line in NZ

Well, generally i find any ski is good up to 300 footers, then i use my stiffer skis.

get 175cm troublemakers. they kick every ski's ass when it comes to tables.

I live in a place far far away, where on occasion the telly tubbies will come to play....and that's when Ma gets out the shotgun. Damn critters climb in our gutter system all the time.

I'd imagine that the Invaders are so soft, that they owuld wash out on the bigger stuff. I'd get thise years ar5's, you can find them for about the same price the invaders are going to be(300).

usualy the reason ppl wash out is 1. there skis r old and are flimsy or 2 they dont no how to land/didnt land right

not becuase of the ski, becuase pros use all the dif skis out there and r fine
