wow you and me are like the exact same, same grade(im guessing your in grade 9?)same height, same weight, like butters, skiing switch =), even previous skis except i dont hae and have never owned stl's but my current ski is the 05-06 chronics, both from the east....

im also looking for a new ski and i am getting invaders i think you should too.

I never liked Nordica until i demoed their skis

check out the ignition and spark

the ignition is softer which seems like more of what u like but i found they were not good on jumps at all just rails and flatland shit

the spark is cheaper, better looking and didnt suck on jumps but were still not bad for buttering

161 invader, im 5'1 and on 151 invaders and they feel to short for me and my friends 163 addicts which i tried last year felt perfect, so maybe 171 if u like longer skis, its really not a big difference from the 161, 5 more cm front and back
