Overall
Overall, I would definitely recommend these skis. They are cheap, playful, and will take a beating like no other.
Performance
They perform well for what they're made to do: jibbing. The buttery flex helps pop onto rails and jibs. On small jumps they're fine, but on larger jumps, they chatter and wash out very easily.
Design
The Mexican wrestler theme isn't really that cool looking, but the pink bases look awesome.
Value
A great value. They're really cheap, and really fun.
Fit
They are true to size.
Characteristics
One of, if not the most buttery ski you can find out there. The butter zones are amazing for ollies and nollies.
Durability
These skis take a beating. I bought mine used, and have used them for two years now. I still have no cracked edges, no delamination, and no significant base damage.
Overall
If you plan on buying any park, or even twin tip, skis, you should definitely demo or check out the the LINE Invaders.
Performance
The Invaders are amazing in all around performance. The flexibility that they have is absolutely astounding. They can handle just about any type ski style, on-piste, off -piste, alpine, freestyle, and, specifically, park. The butterzones are good, however, this is also where my skis' and my size affect me. The butterzones for me take a little more push/pull because they're a little bigger than they should be for me. But if you get a size more fitting, than they should butter extremely well. Skiing switch is also easy with these skis.
Design
They ride, slide, land, pop and flex very well. Because they're mainly park skis, that's where they excel in performance, but as I said, they will work fine for whatever you ride them on. They also have an internal ollie band that also adds to the great pop you can get from them.
Value
The LINE Invaders are great deal for their price and performance. At only $299, they are pretty inexpensive as far as skis go, and they are tied or being my favorite skis on the market today, the others being the LINE Chronics.
Fit
Though I'm not that tall, 5' something, I got the 178cm Invaders, and I still have as much freedom as I do with any smaller skis. They handle very well which is why you can do whatever you want on them.
Durability
So far they have held up fine, obviously there are scratches, but other than that they are still as good as when I bought them.
Overall
Great ski for cheap. Perfect for anyone out hitting urbans or jibbing around.
Performance
It performs great. They are perfect for jibs and rails
Design
they look great and the 100% symmetrics really make skiing switch a ton easier. The topsheet graphic is pretty unique too. I mean who doesnt want mexican luchador's on their skis?!
Value
I bought them brand new for $200 when they first came out and it is a very good deal for such a nice ski. It may not be the best but it definetely gives the more expensive skis a run for their money
Fit
I accidently got 161's instead of 171's (ordered online) and im 5'11 195lbs and even though they are way to short for me they are still really playful and i havnt had any noticable problems with them.
Characteristics
They come with butterzones which is probably the greatest invention ive ever seen haha. Makes butters a lot easier and it always flexes in the same spot. It can get scary at high speeds.
Durability
Only problems ive had is delaming which also happened to a few other people I know who have them. But nothing that really effect how they ride.
Overall
For the price i have found these skis to be very good value, in the park there holding up very well and seam to be very responsive to out of it as long as there not pushed to hard. holding up well on the rails and very easy to spin nd jump about on rails. in all a good ski for your average parky. btw sorry for the crapy spelling
Performance
Im not the hardest shreder there is but i dont give my ski's an easy time and so far they have held up well ofering me a whole lot of pop when i need it and the flex when its needed but they hold up nicly on the landings to. feal nice and sterdy landing both forward nd switch. they carve nicly on the groomers nd not to shaby in the pow as long as you dont push hard or go knee deep.
Design
the graphics arnt to everyones taste but look a lot better in person than they do on the net. when u get em youl be serprised at how thin they look near the tips this worried me a bit but as soon as you get on them they feal as solid as anything iv riden befor.
Value
down to the cash, i paid £209 for mine in the uk and compared to a lot of other skis on the market i feal that there ofering v good value for money.
Fit
im not the tallest guy at bout 5.4 but iv found the 171 to be abou the right length for me. i woulent want to go much shorter.
Characteristics
Park skis by line have always been known for there mad flex pattern and this model is no exception. The soft flex takes a while to get used to but once you get used to where the flex point is the butter zone offer amazing control on the flex alowing you to flex in the same point time after time. iv had no problems with the flex these let you lay back on the tails nd tips with no effort at all. But iv found that serprisingly the flex doesn't effect the performance while just chillin and crusing around the slopes. i was expecting loads of flap but there serprisingly stable. so far....
Durability
As i said earlyer im no pro but i do tend to give my skis a hard time and the edges are holding up very well and the base has no real marks to speak of. seam to be very hard wearing so far. iv herd line get a lot of slack for there skis and that there not the strongest but compared to last years model which i used these seam to be a lot more hard wearing.
Overall
A super fun park ski for a great price with kinda crappy durability.
Performance
So far I haven't had the chance to ride these in a good sized park but they were the funnest thing ever on rails and kickers. I did ski them in 2 feet of powder and they were fun even though i had to lean way back. They turn great and can charge even with the softness.
Design
The colors are sick but i don't really like the wrestlers on em,they are kinda gay.
Value
Super duper good value,imo better than the only really comparible ski in price(silencers)
Fit
I got 161 and they are a little small but are still fine to ski.
Characteristics
Super fun poppy playful, the butteriest ski ever, comparable to the stuff you spread on toast.
Durability
The only bad thing about the ski. The topsheet is super easy to chip and the edge is sepparating a bit.
Overall
Great product, great value, not too great in bumps, but it's an all park ski so I didn't expect much from it in that aspect. If it weren't for that, i'd probably give this ski a 10.
Performance
This ski performed great. It has a center mount so you get equal balance for spins, and rails. And also, it has the carbon ollieband which is made up of carbon fiber stringers which provide extra pop off lips and flat.
Design
It had a great feel. I can ride it forward and switch with the same ease. It has elliptical sidecut, so I can put a little pressure on it, and get a long arched turn, or I can put a lot of pressure, and get a short quick turn. The look is cool too. Since they're 100% symmetrical, I had them mounted one ski forwards, one ski backwards and it looked pretty cool.
Value
So far, it is a great value. Almost a steal at $299 without bindings! Line took everything it had and chucked it at this ski, and it came out great.
Fit
It is a good fit for me. I just moved up from a 167cm pair of Line Chronics, which were up to my collarbone, to these which are 178cm's which are up to eye leve. It was an easy transistion, and the fit is great.
Characteristics
There is a lot of flex in this ski, and it is a very consistent flex because of the butter zone - a point in front and behind the binding where the core is milled thinner to provide a hinge point for butters.
Durability
It definitely held up great. After a while of sliding rails, it got a little slow, but that's to be expected because that wears down your edges, but it still held a great edge.
Overall
Best park ski. period. along with the anthem
Performance
I was really impressed with the performence i had high expectations for this ski and it for sure lived up to them. you do have to wax it alot but whatever its worth it. This ski is soft and has alot of flex so its good for the sketchy landings.
Design
Alot of people find the graphic ugly but fuck them i find its original and nice. but when your shredding down the park your the one thats gonna stand out.
(nothing wrong with that unless you suck)lol
Value
This was for sure a steal for 299$ this is the best ski you could get. And for like 75$ more you could get some anthems that are pretty much the same as the anthems but wider if you like more a wide ski then get the athem.
Fit
im 5,8 and 165 pounds i have 171cm invaders i find its just perfect the size is 110-83-110 its perfect!!
Characteristics
This ski is so fun to play around with in the park. easy to butter and to do rails its got alot of pop and its easy to olly with. and the core of this product has an ollie band, macroblock wood core and it has an nice side cut (elipticle) like most skis so its good for carving on the hard packed snow.
Durability
I know that last year and the year befor that there where some problemes with the durability but line really steped up to the plate with this ski and made it a good strong park ski.
Overall
Overall:A super fun ski all over the mountain that you will get your best money worth out of.
Performance
very fun all over. not bad on those big landings and stable at high speeds
Value
best value around
Characteristics
the flex is pretty much how they say it is. Stiffer throughout but because of the butterzones it is verryy buttery.
Durability
great so far.
