well...i have ghettos and they are a stiffer ski by far than invaders. invaders and ghettos are totally different skis.  i like my ghettos cuz they have sooo much more pop than a ski like an invader but is alot less buttery and that.  if u are lighter and u want sumthin easier to butter go with invaders. i really like my ghettos for jumps cuz they are soo much more stable.  pm me if u need any questions asked.

yeah well said, i have the ghettos and i wouldnt go back ot any other ski, i love the pop and how stable they are...not chattery at high speeds at all, the invaders, from what i have seen, are super noodly, which can be fun but when you want to buckle down and just cruise around, they're gunna lack some stability....it all depends on what you like...hope it helps...also evogear has the ghettos for 209...super sick deal

Ghettos forsure. Comparatively to invaders they're a stiffer ski but relative to other skis they're pretty soft. Lots of pop. They're noticeably lighter than invaders. No chatter all mt and you feel comfortable riding them. I rode a friends invaders for a day and hell they were fun to butter but on a whole I felt i couldnt charge the park as well.
