DH has the King Kahuna. That is one sweet ride. I have the Big Kahuna and I like it a lot (I try not to have fork envy...). One plus for me is the Big Kahuna has the braze-ons for a regular rear rack. Besides, he needs the bike weight advantage since he has about 30 pounds on me. I had a 26" wheeled MTB but I fell in love with the 29er and never looked back.
