Alright.
I ride 90% park and 10% all mountian on the East Coast.
Im 150 pounds and 6 foot.
Will this years invaders last me 30-35 total days of skiing (2 years) without having any delam problems or any other problem, or should I be safe and spend the extra cash and get the next years(07-08) invaders?

The delaming is hit or miss; they were defects and that made them delam. Not how long they weere skied on.

the 07's do not have any widespread delam problems. it was only in the 06's that the edges werent bent properly before pressing.

you should be good. on last years invaders they lasted two runs before delaming. This years lasted me about 80 days, including urban before delaming. so you should be good.

they will def last you that long. ive had 70 days on my 06/07 invaders and theres alot of topsheet chipping and i have quite a few edge cracks but there still hangin in there. and i never leave the park and do alot of disasters so that makes up for edgecracks. just get invaders

im getting the 08s becuz they will probably have even less general topsheet problems and will still be not too much money either cuz there a cheap ski in general. get 08s.

i'd go for the '08
unless you're getting the '07 for well below 200, there will not be much extra cash spent
they are similarly priced at the beginning of the season
