before you do anything you should try eating. You are skiing. Invaders are softer than this years fujatives if that helps you at all.

I have fujatives and I love them. I have yet to hear someone say something bad about fuji's, but lots of people are having problems with their invaders.

fujative due to the fact you ski 20% out of the park and the fujative will be slightly better for that 20% but just as good for the 80% in the park.

I am your exact height and weight, and trust me, the 179 Fuja's will be perfect for you.

i could strap a 2x4 to my feet and it'd slide rails, you buy a ski to ski on, you dont spend the majority of your time on metal

ive used both and i would recomend the fujative if you like skiing something other than 100% park the invaders are extremly noodlish but ride switch real well they dont have as much pop as fujatives id get the 169 fujatives if i were you

I have invaders and I just demoed fugatives this past saturday. I have to say, while the fugatives are better out of the park, i like the invaders much better in the park. either would be a great choice IMO.

fujatives in my opinion are one of the most durable park skis ever made

some of the invadors are falling apart but if u get a good pair and dont really suck balls at skiing then u should be good. u are also light like me so that makes u a little less hard on skis

i have a pair of last years fujatives and i'm 5'9" and 130 lbs too. I love them handle all mountain really well not so great in the crud but kinda to be expected, haven't ridden the invaders though but they look sick and line really stands behind their products
