airfoli rim for MUni?

I am about to get mine tomorrow because my stock hub is dead.
Also getting the UDC Wide Hub with it. I do mostly MUni in the local
mountains here but I also plan to do hopping and riding UP stairs(which
would taco a stock rim).

You can MUni with regular stock rims if you are careful not to have too
many UPDs on it.

The 24" Airfoil is a neat color. That would be one reason to choose
it.

But I'd rather have the KH Freeride rim for muni. It's a wider rim.
Wider is better for muni. Wider means that the tire won't fold over or
squirm as much. The tire just behaves better and is more stable with a
wider rim.

The Airfoil is probably a stronger rim, but sort of rim strength isn't
that critical for most people. A good wheel build is more important in
terms of wheel strength and how well the wheel will hold up to muni
abuse.
