The anthem? I believe you mean the Dave Pires Pro Model. Anyway they're very soft. Butter zones, gentlemen, butter zones.

They are stiffer than the 07' invaders because they have a carbon fiber stringer (like the 08'invaders too) and the extra width makes them stiffer. I am under the impression that it is exactly the same as the invader but fatter. I want them alot and I will get them for sure.

they flex the exact same as the 08 invader, at least in your hands(i havent actually rode 08 invaders).
I have never skied on anything before over 90 in the waist that is good for rails, but they are.
fun ski everywhere.

Soft is awesome and the anthems are $$$$$$$. The chronics rule, just more mainstream as in side-cut and stiffness.

uhh, well i'm pretty sure the 08 anthems are identical to the 07's. pretty soft, slightly stiffer than the invader. one of the nicest flexing skis out there... i really enjoyed the ride of 'em. you don't even have to think about riding switch, too.

i want invaders cuz they sound fun, so i'd pick them. Anthems sound the same, just wider.

I'd say definitely Anthems. I mean Invaders are kind of your average park ski, whereas Anthems, with a beefy center and true twintip is something lots of people have been waiting for

What problems are you refering to?

if the invaders were your average park ski... the anthems would be to.... because they are the exact same ski. The anthems are just a bit wider. Both skis have symmetrical side cut and flex. Both skis have true twin tips. Both skis have a true center mounting position. Same ski. The Anthem is just a touch stiffer than the invader due to its extra width.
