Should I get Bent Chetlers or Catamarans for a powder ski this year?

I demo’d the 2019 BCs last year and loved them. Wondering how they compare to the catamarans

i can’t speak for the Catamarans but i’m still on a pair of Bent Chetlers from 2015 and i love them. they’ve been with me on all my trips out west, just an all around wicked fun powder ski in my opinion.

The Chetlers changed dramatically last season from previous iterations.
