i want fat versitile skis

do the extra 9 cm under foot on the Aks make them worse on groomers/park

im more concerned in how easily menoverable they are like on jumps and rails

Made n's are softer, whihc may make up for the width.Probably just personal preference though

well i said seths because you said you were concerned with rails. you wont be spinning 450 ons with madens but with seths its possible

I onlt tride the seths and they were sexable...the madions would be rader as long as u didnt want to go super fast and turn on hard snow i think

I like the Seth a bit better for all round. I had a pair for 2 seasons..overall pretty durable too.

Seth's are WAAAY better all-around. Made'Ns are a powder/bc jib ski.
