What you talking about. Line had their shit together for invaders and anthems. Hell my invaders lasted 3 years and are only missing about 3 inches of edge total. I got a pair of anthems last year and I love them even more than my invaders.

I have double times and I like them a lot.  They were a little hard to get used to because I went from a more true park ski to them but once I got used to a wider and longer ski I loved them.  They are very stable at high speeds and landings on jumps.  They are wide so they are great for all mountain skiing.  They surprisingly carve awesome on groomers.

My friend just snapped his surfaces landing backseat on a 30 ft jump yesterday. They arent very strong, reliable skis.

Were they the double times?

I beat the shit out of skis and so far the double times have held up super well for me. Awesome all mountain ski that absolutely shreds in the park. Really poppy fun ski.

lines are a much better finished product out of the factory. but surfaces are cheaper. you will get what u pay for.
