I dunno. It took me a solid decade and a half to unlearn all the hardtail and singlespeed body habits and really begin to ride full suspension bikes properly. Then it took another 8 or so years to come to terms with new geometry and learn how to stop hanging off the back of the bike like some refugee from the endo prone early 90s. I wouldn't wish a hardtail on anyone as a learning tool out here in the land of square edged momentum killers.
