Scratch BC vs Brigade BC

I had the old Bandit XXX and want a fat twin tip. I founf last years scratch BC's for pretty cheap but am not sure if the extra few hundred is worth it for this years new brigade? Any one ski both? Will I be satisfied with last years BC for my all around powder, kicker, and some park ski? Is it fat enough where my boot won't drag at the waist of the ski? Thanks

the scratch BC has been replaced by the scratch brigade and rossi put out the steeze as well. buy the 06-07 scratch bc you won't be disappointed.
