Ok Im about 5'11" 145lbs and ski 95% park (midwest). I had T-halls (06?)  this year and I felt that they were about a mid flex, not too stiff, not too loose. I am looking at getting either the Line Spirals or Invader  for next year and I was wondering how they would ski. What would the flex be like compared to the t-halls? Would the invaders be too noodley? Also if anyone can find a good deal on spirals Ill be extra stoked and be forever in debt to you..

The invader probably wouldn't be too soft if you like the THall, except if you do a lot of big jumps, but seeing as you live in the midwest, they'd probably be fine. As for deals, they are like 350 on Backcountry, but you can probably find them cheaper if you look around a bit.

well, invaders aren't going to be made next year...

but, invaders/anthems should be pretty flexy compared to t-halls (not sure).
i just know that you shouldn't plan on hucking any 80 footers on invaders

I rode my friends 08-09 invaders and they are not as noodley as in previous years.
they are a very very fun ski to ride on and they seem to handle jumps well enough on jumps up to 45-50 feet. probrably a good ski for what you described
