im personaly using a totem solo air 2008
a great fork, intended for fr and used in fr. the air spring isnt as sensitive as the coil, but i dont need it anyway, cause im riding fr (on a hardtail) just to clear things out, ive riden a coil too, but im more confortable with the air, cause i can pump it as i want on the fly (and not dissasembling the fork like the coil version preowned), stiffer or softer, variates on the ride (despite the compression)

ive riden the 66 rc2x and the 66 vf
the vf was awfull, but the rc2x had a great damper, way better than the totem and it is ridden better on dh

though, im curious about the new totem with the dh damper, id surely like to test it

i just got a 66rc and do mostly freeride. do you guys think that would be a okay fork to race on?

Yes just get it tuned,a tuned 170mm fork will out perform a un tuned 200mm travel fork.

And you can x-up the final jump at said race to impress the crowd Wink
Or you can just tuck no-hander like Cedric Gracia did with a broken drivetrain at the world cuptup

Did you see the interview where he talked about how he wanted to flip it instead of suiciding it. Gnarly is what that man is.
