The pipe cleaners are called that for a reason, do not get them for park.
Get T Halls

Why not the pipe cleaners my friend just got a pair and they seem dope, yes they are focused around pipe but they seem like a good all mountain skis and a pretty good park/rail ski.

because its stiff, it has a racers base so a lot of taking care of, n most impotantly its a very fragile ski and the edges arent made for rails at all

if your 5 10, 160, DO NOT GET A 170ish ski!! way to short. trust me. my personal recomendation would be this years STLs, in a 183, mounted 2 back. by far one of the lightest, most poppy, agile park skis ever, and it can actually be used all over the mt. pipe cleaners dont make sense for park, the bases are tougher but also thinner and harder to repair. (thinner edges as well). the Thall, eh, never been a fan of armadas. they are ok skis, but definatly not as good as people talk them up to be. but do not get a shorter ski. its retarded.
