Anyone know how the Pipe Cleaner is as an all mountain?

Absolutely shit for all mountain, only good for park and on trails unless your on top of your game. The bases are especially good for jump lines giving that extra push. If you want them to last more than a season avoid the rails and they will look after you. Choose them If your competing, if not don't bother with them.

what the fuck is wrong with you dude? i ride pipe cleaners in the park and everywhere when i don't have my bent cheaters. they have a medium flex which holds well on the mountain. the ski is a park ski but is built like any other armada park ski. the plus side is the race base which needs to be maintained a bit. it is definitely underrated ski. super fun

I found the performance of the Ski is limited to the conditions, They are the most enjoyable per of skis I've Skied in the park as they are well rounded for switch riding they lock on like a Hooker on Meth.If you only have one set of skis and looking to use these as all mountains you'd have a more enjoyable time looking else where. The Alpha X would be more suited with overall enjoyability and in the same price range.

still, the pipe cleaner is nowhere near an all mountain ski. Just having a ski perform decently in other conditions besides park is purely determined by riding style. I had a pair earlier this year and besides hitting jumps on them they pretty much sucked as when skiing the mountain.
OP, go with a rossi slat or line chronic is you want a real all mtn feeling park ski. the pipe cleaners are just going to hold you back.
