You can ski pow on any ski, but wyou can't SKI ski on any ski. For sweet performance get a pow ski, to get down the mountain you can use any. Has anyone ever seen any late 90s, eary 2000s Warren Miller movies? They ski on some very, very skinny skis and kill it. Well, sort of......

yeah i went to utah this past year.  i brought my rossi skis which arent even twin tips and have like a 72mm underfoot which is terrible (thankfully i have much better ones now for shredding the pow).  but anyway, i had 1 pow day where there was like a foot of fresh and i had no problems whatsoever.  fat skis are ideal for any pow, but as long as you're used to the ski you're using then u should be perfectly fine.

well they won't be very good but if you're a good enough skier you can easily do it, i've skied pow on skis way shorter and narrower than invaders and it's doable but not as fun and relaxed as pow on bacons or ep's. if you're gonna be skiing some pow consider a 2 ski quiver or get anthems, but invaders are a symmetrical narrow park ski, so they'll work but they won't be too fun
