this im looking into getting new skis. now i ride karhu agents and have riden multiple pairs them my whole life. agents are pretty much the same as invaders except a lot stiffer. from using all my friends skis and demos etc. i have narrowed it down to rossi scratch pro bc, armada ar6,
and armada arv. i say im at about 60% park and the rest moguls or powder. im not huge into moguls so a ski better or worse performing in moguls doesnt matter. i also love the feel of riding fat skis i know arvs and the bc are fatter then the ar6 but i want the ar6 because of the park.

Scratch BC WRS

Or take your pick out of the Moment skis... lol (Reno, Tahoe, Rockers)

Rockers might be good for your powder side... Reno's for everything

No, they're mid-80's, like 85 or something.

if you want ssomething around 90, get the Scratch BC WRS.

or Moment Tahoe's (96) or Moment Reno's (85).

The Rossi's are proven, and Moments are promising. :D

Exactly why I said the Moment's look promising... hehe

The Rossignol's are proven skis, everyone (or most people) that have skied on them were very happy with how they performed....

The Moment's on the other hand, very few people have skied (probably only the team riders & company workers), but they have been around for a while, and have likely resolved their problems.

If you're willing to try something new, then Moments are for you... (hey, that rhymes!!)

but if you ain't, the Rossi's aren't a bad choice, and you won't be disappointed.
