Depends on what you want, really. The TM is a little wider at the waist and (I think) it has more sidecut than the MT. If you want something a little quicker edge-to-edge, the MT may be better for you. If you prefer a little more underfoot, the TM would be better. If you like a straighter ski, get the MT - if you like a ski with a bit more sidecut, get the TM.

they feel and ski really different. the MT actually has a really nice sidecut, and carves like a motherfucker, but it has more camber than any ski i've ever ridden, so they need to be ridden hard, and it helps if your kind of heavy.

people who cry about MT's being heavy are just weak and get whipped around by the ski.
MTs are more durable, stiffer, stronger, and one of the best for all mtn.
I would say they're about equal, but theres quite a high chance that you'll find Madtrix cheaper than Troublemakers.

^true statement^ I ride nothing but Head...and the Mad Trix are definatly a more durable ski...I already seen more broken TM's than Mad Trix..and Mad Trix have been around alot longer..nut performance wise..they will both have their advantages..

it's funny,
EVERY time I see a thread with 'or ' or 'vs' in the title in the ski equipment forum, i pray for it to be a joke...until I open it, and suddenly it isn't.
