ok so ive narrowed it down to Armada PipeCleaners and Atomic Punx. i demoed the PCs today and i loved them. their durability scares me though because this is my last pair for a few years. i havent got a chance to ride the punx but i fooled around with them in the shop and loved them. they both seem similar in flex and wieght but i dont know which one to go with. im 6'1" 180 and i ski in the northeast so i encounter some ice and i ski 95% park. 65%jumps, 35% rails. but i dont really do spins on rails. which skis are best for me?

The Pipecleaner. They are very durable as well, and the 2nd best jump ski out there.

my friend has this years punx. i tried them out once. Their pretty light and sick in the park. Haven't found or heard about anything wrong with them.
I've never tried pipecleaners so i can't say much.
