You have the most redundant quiver of all time if your profile is correct. Stl's, Fujas, and Invaders...thats a bit of overlap. They ski like 2 skis you already have, good job.

To help you out youll probably find to invaders nicer all mountain than the fujas, with a little softer tail and stiffer up in the nose. But the difference is really small, and honeslty i didnt feel much a difference at all between them, except that the invaders seemed to hold more of an edge on harder stuff.

dude ohio produces some of the best skiers along with the east coast. we learn to ski everything instead of waking up and knowing what your going to be skiing almost everyday. i dont have a choice where i live rite now so dude just back the fuck off

I was just kidding dude, chill out. And I don't give a fuck if Ohio or the East produce the "best skiiers" they are all fucking park rats with Jane fonda steeze, Colorado represent.

I realise that, and fujatives have a stiffer tail, and a softer nose compared to the invaders. The statement i made was correct.

Yea i will verify the ohio claim having a quiver of all park skis isnt that uncommon. We just dont have the need for pow skis. Only reason i am gettin some Seths this year is cuz I have the chance to take 3 trips or so this year!!
I think you will really like how the invaders feel though I only got ot demo them thugh so cant really give detail

they're super buttery yet can hold an edge well in the pipe. they don't wash out a lot and aren't real noodly. they are durable and fun to look at on the lift.

So they are stiffer than what people think?

They are as soft as people think but without the consequences that people are claiming the soft flex is going to have.

Will they be stiffer or softer than last years scratch FS?
Posts: 2112

Softer. They are really close to the Scratch Econ model but still a hair softer.
They flex very similar to the Fujative but the difference is that the Fuj is stiff underfoot and the Invader is not.

Yeah, they made a scratch model that had an all wood core and was cheaper than the Scratch FS. I figured you might have seen it before to compare it.

YOU ARE KIDDING RIGHT? Jane Fonda was a famous actress who sold out the U.S. and sided with the Vietnamese during the Vietnam war. She's still alive and recently starred in "Mosnster in Law" with Jennifer Lopez.
You idiot. You tried talking shit and didn't even know what you were talking about.

Actually bro Flynn is right and you are wrong. He hit it right on they're symetrically flexed and shaped and mounted true center, a Totally Different pattern than the Fujative.

true but the fujatives are stiffer in the back and softer in the front, he was comparing two skis not describing ones flex pattern

Yeah man... wtf. I think you mean Jane Goodall steeze. Sheesh...get it right. Haha. Who the F cares. Jane fonda steeze sounds funny too. Imagine her trying to ski.
But anyways.. Invaders will be fine for the right coast. They are truly stiffer than people think. Jibij has sent so so many pairs out there.

stiff? they are the softest ski i have ever ridden.

they aren't as soft a t-halls. Its just the butter zone that is soft. underfoot they have a good flex.

if the invaders are completly symetrical, than could you mount them backwards?
Posts: 1236

Karma: 18
Never thought about that, but I suppose you could. Dunno how that might affect the waxing or the butter zones though. they are placed in different spots from the boot i think so i think in theory you could, but it wouldnt work so well

Karma: 14
they are PERFECTLY symetrical... so yes you can mount them either way. In fact if you have reactors then you can switch them around every so often so that you get even edge wear from rails and stuff... and that way you can look at both sides of the graphic when you're riding the chair too.
