Hi I am soon to get a p2, and wanted to get a new fork for it. Which of the the fox forks would be best. Or what else would be good for about half djing/ and a quarter freeride/ quarter downhill. Can somebody please help thanks.

If I was in your shoes I would get something with 5" of travel and a 20mm axle. A Sherman would probably be good, a Dirt Jumper would also be a good choice, a Pike would be a good fork also. I haven't rode any of these, just going off the numbers and what people have told me. I've heard of the Fox's with the QR axles breaking, so I would avoid those unless your really light, a smooth rider or good at jumping and rarely case.
I wouldn't get a 6" travel fork though. I have a friend that did this to his P3 and it rides like crap unless you like a really slack ride or do mostly DH with it.
Hope that helps

fox 36, its adjustable from 100 to 150, its light, it is better all around fork than the talas. but it is a bit of $$$
mm...i ride the FOX vanilla 125, got it i dunno a year and half ago. Its been great! light, strong, adjustable. Its quick release. I dj mostly but also ride street, freeride, and have downhilled it too. I bought the stiffest aftermarket springs i could find for it, as at stock it compressed to easily for what i like on dirt jumps. that fork has seen tons of abuse, and it still takes it. I had the djIII before and it was nice, but too heavy for what i wanted. peace
oh yea, and its on a kona roast, which is a hardtail frame kinda like a p2 i guess
