@dminor, You've got a point, I tend to just run right down the middle and let the suspension just eat, one dude I used to ride with wheelied over everthing and it was as if he just floated, and these guys like to line pick their way through, definitly the slowest way down.

@Pwnt, I had a big bike with a tall headtube and a 2 inch riser bar years ago and I thought I was riding on a horse. I hope I don't find the 29r to be that way.
