Pinkbike Poll: Do You Use Your Climb Switch?
I've got a hardtail and a 170mm VPP (super?)enduro bike. Even on long road sections I don't bother locking out the big-rig.
A smooth pedal action and not bobbing your shoulders up and down is all I need and I see very little pedal bob in the linkage.
All the lockout switch does is make my the big bike uncomfortable on the climbs.

Video: Developing the Next Generation Santa Cruz V10 In 'The Eighth'
I've tried their Megatower V2. If that's how fast their 'pedally' bikes want to point downhill then I daren't think how good a modern V10 would be. I doubt I'd have the strength to even get close to waking it up.

Video: Ben Cathro's Tips to Bunny Hop Higher - How To Bike

Though we never really knew why.

Pinkbike Poll: Who Taught You How To Mountain Bike?
Came to the comments to look for this. Tricks and Stunts was my absolute go-to back then and is probably the reason I'm more comfortable on the more tech stuff today.
I just wish I'd learned to jump back then too because I'm definitely not comfortable at that.
