I am vary interested in a pair of pipe cleaners and i was wondering if anyone heard how good they are. And how well they hold up on rails and outside the pipe.

they are fast, because of the race bottoms. they are a dope ski i've heard, and perform real good outta pipe (aka park and groomers) and so far, i havent heard anyone say their edges have cracked or anything from rails. if i had PC's, i'm sure i'd stay off the jumps just incase, but im too poor to afford another set of skis

I don't see the hype. oooh ah tiny little edges cool! didn't we just spend the last 5 years getting away from that ? I'm sure the race base is nice until you take a chunk outa it. Seem just kinda expensive and delicate though.

the edges on this year's PCs are the same width as all their park/pipe skis, they were only 1.7mm last year, but are now 2.1mm
