Mad Trix, 1080 or PE?

I live on the est coast, and I've been riding the original 1080 for 3 years now. I love em, but I need new ones. My choices are Teneighty, Public Enemy, and the new Mad trix.
I heard a lot about the Teneighty having delamination problems last year. But also that it's the best all mountain/park ski there is and floats better in powder.
PE's are pretty much indestructable thanx to the rivets, and are stiffer than most skis, but are heavier.
Mad Trix are great for park and especially pipe, and are very lightweight. And I've heard no negative comments about the new ones.
If anyone's tried all these skis please comment.

Get PEs but volkls are the best valeu out there. you can reach deals with the reps sometimes (if your a good skier or high up coach) and they are sooo durable!
but if u cant get PEs

mad trix are good but the new ones do have some delam problems! the older ones B&W that have been around for like 2-3 years are solid skiis.

however get volkl or PEs

here is my rating of next years park ski
1) volkl expression
2) PE
3) scratch
4) TM
4) tweak
5) mad trix
6) 1080

fatter park ski
1) PE
2) v-pro
3) scratch BC
4) v-explosive
5) TM
5) Pocket rocket
6) sugar daddy

I have not tried armada, elans, and I didn't rate all models cause I haven't skiied all models but basically if u ski K2 or volkl next year you are in good hands.
but go with volkl noone ever has problems with volkls

cedric, I think I speak for us all when I say I want to kill you, its soo hard to get a chance to try all the skiis on the market. I would like to try nordica and fischer just so I could decide if they really are crap
