I have ridden a number of bikes over the years, but, my favorite 2 would be a 2009 V10 and my current ride, 2010 Commencal Supreme DH v2.
The V10 is a good plow bike and they do jump quite well and very forgiving. The biggest reason for getting one was I've been struggling with some vision problems so I needed somthing forgiving when I picked the wrong line. If you get one, take the DHX5 out and install an Elka stage 5.
Recently I had been riding differently as my sight issues are not to bad now, like trying to jump off little rocks and picking lines better. So I tried a commencal. It took a bit of setting up but I love it! It just jumps off everything in rockgardens, drifts well and pedals great. (feel invincible)
I took my Commencal to Illinbah on the Gold Coast recently and its the best bike I've ridden on that track. I did bin it pretty bad on the 2nd run at the bottom fast section because it inspired too much confidence and I relaxed too much and hit a hole in the grass on the second last corner blowing one of my hands off the bars....... Had a head cam on so all good.:very_drunk:
