Which ski would be a better deal if i am looking for more of a jump, box, and a freeski?
i don't want to use them on rails

what do you mean by freeski? and boxes do damage the same as rails... neither are good for skis.
invaders are park specific, while chronics are park/all mtn. i have a pair of both, and if i was gonna ride park 100% of the time, id probably choose invaders.
however, for big kickers, and pipe, chronics are sick. somewhat stiff, so they pop well, and dont wash out. invaders are a really soft ski.

^not completely different, they have similar specs and construction, and both kill it in the park

Get the chrons if you want a lot of all mountain and a stiffer ski

Wide is the future. They will never really hurt, and are only more stable and float over crap.

Chronics- all mountain ski that holds edge really well. Can handle anything in the park like a dream. Stiff, which is all personal preference in the park. Great pipe ski.
Invaders-pretty much a pure park ski. once you start riding these they seem pretty good all mountain, but thats just because you have riden a ski like the chronics in a long time. One thing i really like about the invaders is their softness, you really get a feel for lip of the jump. butter zones are really nice they flow with the snow, they dont fight it. (best park ski i have ridden)
sry i couldnt type more i am running late, but i own both of these skis so i know what i am talking about. so pick one that fits ur style.

yeah try taking them through the trees at jay peak or any mountain with something steep and fast, and you'll find that they don't even compare to what the chronics can do, get the chronics, you won't regret it
