I've found a pretty good deal on some used line invaders but im not really sure how long to get them. I am about 5'5 and 135 pounds. im not sure if i should be going with 161s or 171s. I ski almost entirely park so i think i want a soft ski. Any suggestions?

Also ive heard of invaders breaking easily. anyone else heard that?

Well 5'5 is 165cm? So 161invaders would be roughly your height since the listed length is a few cm shorter than the actual for Line I believe. Eitherway, what's a "good deal?" If you can, you got 30mins to snag a money pair off getboards.

Invaders don't "break easily," it's just you can't expect much for $300 retail. I guess it'll really just depend on how you ski them

I bet you can find a better deal. I got my new 171 invaders for 120 on here so you just gotta look around and see what other people have to offer.
