I couldn't really give you an educated answer since i haven't used any of those skis, but my friend uses the Scratch BCs and he loves them.

anything but the skogens...softest ski ever, mine delamed within 3 months. go with the scratches or pe's, but the pe's have a bigger sidecut, but are heavier too.

The Fujatives are great fun, but if he is skiing 50/50 different terrain, the PEs would provide a better all around platform for him. And to the dude who said the PEs are not good in the bumps....learn to ski bumps first. Any ski that can ski a wide variety of terrain is perfect for moguls, except of course, fat skis.

^^ word.
The PE's sidecut is more aggressive than the Scratch and makes better turn transitions. It does not seem to ski switch as well as the Scratch but overall has a larger sweetspot and makes a better all mountain ski

^yup.....deeper sidecut = harder to ski switch.....both of my pairs have rather large sidecuts (25-26m radius) but they ski switch like nobody's business

That is why you carve switch then. Use that sidecut to your advantage both directions:)

I own both the scratch fs and the public enemies. I am amazed at the publics, I've been sliding a lot this year an i have seen only minor effects from the rails, the base is unstoppable. However, if you are riding 50-50 get the scratchs, they are so good switch and on HUGE arcs.
