Riding a hardtail keeps you sharp..you really notice it back on the Full susser and kind arrive at corners a whole lot quicker

I love both. My old Enduro and now my 575 let me fly over rocky techy stuff and leave me with stupid grins. But then I'd never give up my Handjob - it's just too much fun flicking around the dirt and roots of my native woodland.
I also have a Trailstar with I love thrashing the hell out of - seeing just how bad a landing I can get away with before it (or I) breaks.

It's great to have both if you have the option. You kinda need one to appreciate the other if that makes sense. Curry is great but I wouldn't want to eat it everyday, scanario, I also like Thai, but which is best....
HT is more enjoyable for short twisty blasting singletrack, FS for the rocky steep all day epics. Sure they are also capable of doing both, just not so much fun.......and isn't that what it's all about after all!

Try before you buy, preferably somewhere bumpy.
If I had to lose one of my trail bikes, the HT would go.

You absolutely need at least one of each

Couldn't agree more, a HT and a FS are great companions, but if I were to only have one for the kind of riding I do it'd be a FS, but then again my 29er HT is bloody great
