Anyway, what are some tips/advice you have on getting into Mountain Biking? I currently have zero experience in it, but I'm definately interested in starting.

Well it depends on a lot of things...

Are you looking to get into XC riding, downhilling, or just an occasional trail ride?

How much money do you want to spend on a bike? How often will you be riding it? If you are not wanting to spend a lot of money, then a hardtail would be the way to go. You will get more bang for your buck. If you're willing to spend more money, you can buy a nice XC full suspension bike. And if you're willing to spend tons of money, then you can get a full on DH bike.
