idk why you would want a stiffer ski than your invader if all you do is park, your not goanna find too much of a lighter ski with pop than that but w/e, get some 07 invaders, theyre redic.

Height and weight are not the determining factors of weather or not a ski will be a good match for you, skill level and whether or not youre strong enough to bend the ski have a lot to do with it too.

why are you tired of invaders, yet worried about the stiffness?

i think this question is about graphics.

chronics are stiff AND poppy and thrusters are more like invaders only not quite as buttery but still pretty nooodliscious, i have thrusters and had chronics and im like 5'5'' and 100 lbs

Hes 5 foot 4 why would he want a 188? That would mean I need a 220 lol he should go with somthing in the 171 to 178 range just my two cents

^ even more realistic I hate when short people buy long skis cause this year I wanted the addicts and I saw some kid who was like 5 foot 6 with the 181's I was pissed cause all they had left was 171's
