That fork is aimed at XC-riders and has Rebound, lockout, and compression. For a park / DJ bike all you really need is Rebound but additional adjustments are nice. Air forks are nice as you can usually adjust the travel on them appropriately and tweak the ride to just absorb the bigger hits.

The Talas feature might be overdone as well as you really wont' need to be changing the travel most likely on a DJ/Urban bike.

The fork is also quick release so it won't be as stiff or safe as a 20mm (or 15mm) fork.
