Salomon Scream vs. Atomic M:9

I'm looking for a new pair of skis that will be a good partner to my Atmoic SX:7's. I love them, but they dont take the crud, glades, or powder very well. I've narrowed it down to the Scream or M:9's, but from there I'm not sure. I've found deals on the '05's for around 500 bucks on both, so the price doesn't change things. Any advice would be great, thanks.

how much powder do you plan on skiing? if you don't want a twin consider these:
Dyna Legend 8800
Elan 777
Head Monster im 88
K2 Apache
Blizzard Titan Nine
Those are some decent mid fat skis, that can handle a bit of everything.

and you can keep your SX:7's for those groomers days, where you feel like carving like a mad man.

and if you want to stick with atomic i would go M:EX over the M:9.
the M:EX is more freeride orientated compared to the the M:9. (Larger turning radius and little more width)
you already have a ski with an insane turn radius.

8800 or IM88 most def if you rock the mountain. Maybe some old R:EX's if you can find them Good luck.

Thanks guys, I think it'll be the Metrons then. And yes, I will certainly be keeping my SX for the days on the courderoy when it's time to take my boarding friend's ego down a peg.
