A 5010 would be better for those super talented riders.
Short travel is fine with good geometry, but in the uk, rutted multiple muddy hits soon brings fatigue, particularly where there is little ability to carry speed in order to perform a manoever/ jump over obstacles, so slightly more travel or a longer travel mullet gives a great blend of speed, balance etc and reduces fatigue levels.
