or you can get a great fork that suits his bike perfectly, and will work perfectly, for the same price. or hell he can even get a cheaper version! there are like 5 different versions! get a cheap one! i have the cheapest argyle and i love it!

i think a 66 or mabey a 55 would work well. also a fox 36 van would be nice. very light weight and smooth fork. and if you have the money than maby an air shock and possibly a ti coil if you still want a coil rear shock

er getting back on topic here...
Yeah I dont want an out and out dirt jump bike, otherwise I would sell it and buy one. I will use the bike for the odd downhil race but mainly blasting berms,jumps gaps etc.

Id go with a totem, no doubt in my mind.... maybe a fox 36 talas its adjustable from 100-160 mm its air its super plush super light and a great fork.

or if your sayng he should put like 1000 bucks into upragding, buy a specialized p2 or a giant stp for djing or something like that, it would be wayyyyy better. if you got your heart set on cannondale, they make a cannondale chase series (3 bikes, different prices) for your purpases (djing or freeride).
good luck buying, peace
