So basically Im going to get a new bike. heres what I want to use it for

1.Rocky down hills
2.3-6 foot mounds to get air off of.
3.Trails and downhill riding

So what Im wondering is, what bikes from www.performancebike.com do you guys think would be the best for what I want, thats between 500-1000 dollars and is a hardtail?

Ive looked at the iron horse ones.... Unfortunitely I just realized that the performance site only shows the mongoose and iron horse bikes they have.
