Ahhh the tricky thing about names; when I was on some XC trails on Vancouver Island, I had to wonder what the DH trails looked like.

I'd still love to get to Whistler. I have been DHing at Northstar, and in Big Bear (So Cal) when they still had lifts running. My DH bike was a Yeti DH 9. My current (incomplete) rig is a Cove G Spot. The photo I posted earlier is me at N* on my G spot. Ahhhh... good times!

I'd stay away from Cannondale TBH.
Have worked in shops and i've had to file more warranty claims with Cannondale then with any other brand and not only in one area such as XC but from road to DH.

the DH9 was a sick bike back in the day!

after snapping fork head on a specialized, and rear shock bracket on a fisher/and trek. I went back to cannondale... fastest, and strongest dual sport ive owned... only problem i had was the lefty shock, a seal wasnt set right and the lock out broke. after they replaced with a newer, larger lefty max at no cost, i havent had a problem. Now its the only lock out thats lasted, even longer than any fox shox Ive owned. For what I do anyway:leaf:

its not a mountain bike, but a few weeks ago i found a 1983 murray X24 bmx, the blue and chrome one, in very good shape. its a trip down memory lane and a blast to ride. after cleaning and oiling the chain yesterday i amazed myself and several children by pulling and riding a wheelie for about a hundred feet. its one of the coolest bikes i own.

Sweet pics of the grasshoppers.

I'm interested in purchasing a bike next year and want the best all around bike for the money.

I have been looking at the 2013 Trek Marlin 29er, is there anything wrong with this choice?

Any recommendations and advice is appreciated.

I used to have a real mtb but lack of money riding spots and riding pals I've switched over to freestyle mtb. I ride with all bmxrs and am usually crusing the streets but you'll find me chillen at the skatepark or blasting some dirt jumps on my custom built stout bikes build.
