im just saying this stuff on things ive heard on this site and from friends who have ridden both 05 pairs. getting to the point: on durability (rails wise) TMs do horribly. im not sure if dynastar has upped the quality for the 06 TM's but i havent heard anything saying they have. however, friends who have ridden the TMs say the love them for evertying but rails, ive ridden his once and they seem like nice skiis (cept for the duribility issues).the 05 scratches have worked really well for my friend, duribilty and all, he loves them. anyway theres my 2 cents on the subject.

bottomline is the scratches are gonna hold up a lot better than the tm's

id go with the scratches cause they look sick and they are alot more durable than tms, my friend had tm's and he had no edges after not even a whole season but thats just my opinion, if u dont do any rails at all then the tms r a good ski but id go with the scratchz

Scratch FS is a very solid feeling ski this year... can't say until people have been riding them a bit, but we know from the past 3 years how piss poor TMs are so that should help you make a decision.
It had to be said.

The new FS is gonna really sick next year. Wider footprint and a bit stiffer are some of the bigger differences. Go with the FS

If your a rail lover definitly go with the FS... but youre also not the heaviest fellow so maybe the tm would hold up for you... personaly i love pipe so i have the tm pro...
Does it annoy anybody that the first trick landed in Not Another Ski Movie WAS SEVEN AND A HALF FUCKING MINUTES INTO THE MOVIE???????????????? i paid for a ski movie... not a tour of a lightbulb factory
