The Made'ns are going to be more versatile as the tapered sidecut of the Pontoons isn't ideal anywhere but pow.
However, as not many people have skied the Pontoon yet, there isn't much info on their performance.

Yea, they are pretty sick.
If you want to use them on more than just deeeep pow days, I'd say go for the Made'n.

I was talking to a guy who was rideing them a cuple of weeks ago (pontoons) he said that they are his favorit ski he has ever skied, he said he would take them anywhere but ice and that they perform well on hard pack too.

He didn't get owned at all.
You just made yourself look like a d-bag.
Also, hating on people with money and making it known that you are such a 'hardcore' ski bum doesn't impress anyone. If you knew shit about skis and/or skiing, you wouldn't be asking for advice on here anyway.
I think you should have the mods change your name to Mr. 'Core.

Sounds good.
Although, I did ski yesterday and got up to ski today, but decided against it as I was disappointed in the snow report.
Some of us have real jobs and have to pay for houses, cars, etc and still manage to ski 80 - 100 days a year. Sometimes I have to pick my days wisely.
