Hi, I'm thinking about getting some new skis next season, and was wodnering what skis are good. i like the park, but enjoy pipe more. i do do some jib but not to many. I want something not to expensive with good pop. I'm about 5' 6" and weigh around 115 pounds. i want something that will last me a while. Something thats not to expensive (below 500). thanks

Agreed.  Get pipe cleaners off season for cheap.  I own them and love the way they ski.

Dumonts and Pipecleaners are both sick skis for jumps/pipe.  I would say TNK's, but it's a coin toss whether or not they are going to stay together for more than a week.

166 Pipe nas. Kill it in the pipe and kill it in the park. Even good as an all mountain ski. These things are bomb proof!!!! Great swing rate for spinning and you can round your edges but with magne-traction you can still hold an edge everywhere. if you have questions hit me up? $454.00 at rei.com for this years ski. you could also get last years. the only update was the top sheet

I have heard a lot of good things about Pipe cleaners. And does anyone know if they are good at park and other stuff too?

its no question armada, salomon, and atomic are the leading pipe ski makers, depends on what you want out of the ski but those three are the skis you wanna look at right there

anthems might be a bit soft for a mainly pipe ski

I love my new K2 Kung Fujas. they have the bamboo core, so super poopy, light, can hold an edge on ice, fat enough to shred the pow, and are dope in the park. Basically the ultimate tool for all ur shredding needs.

Dynastar 6th sense superpipe.  It is the same ski as the original trouble maker which was one of the best park skis ever made.  You are going to want a skinnier ski in the pipe for agility.  Check out the 08 or 09 Jon Olsson pros too.  The Dynastars come in a 165 I believe.
