If you are skiing just park and some groomers from time to time, get the invaders. especially if you ski pipe as well. If there is powder somewhere in the equation, and/or you do bigger jumps, you will want the  extra width of the Anthems for floatation and landing stability.

Invaders = Park / Pipe / Urban jib stuff

Anthems = BC booters / BC jibbing

that anthems are the skinniest BC skis I've ever seen then....  The lizzes would more so fall into that category.  The invaders are a good choice for a lighter, more urban/pipe friendly ski.  the anthem is better for the park rat / all mountain jibber (thats really where accel)

 The anthems have a 93mm waist and the invaders have a 83mm waist. The Anthems are better for light powder use vs. the invaders but dont carve as well as the invader. I fins the Anthem is alot more stable at speed.
