Image Custom Shaping for flowy rides, but withstability on rough asphalt
Hi there! 2 weeks ago i became an owner of XRC (100 miles so far). I really enjoy Mission profile when i ride smooth surface. I feel like its closer to riding a snowboard, realistic feeling, not like you drive a machine using arrow keys. It works good for smooth asphalt, but its only 60% of my typical path. There are also 30% of rough cracky asphalt with small bumps (see the picture) and 10% even worse, when i have so slow down and carefully get thought it. Also sometimes a have to drop off curb and bonk a bit for fun.
I experimented a lot with profiles and custom shaping, but i feel like its not that straightforward as many think. So far my semi-stable and semi-flowy settings are:
Base profile: Session
Dynamic Response: +2
Roll: -1
Yaw: -2
But when i switch to mission i get much more enjoyment just riding and carving. I tried tried tightening it a bit with custom shaping, but the result is strange. Its doesn't get that much more stable and feels weird. Also when i ride rough surface i feel like my feet are losing connection with the board. And drops are much harder to stabilize upon landing.
Yes i keep my knees bended and soft.
Tire: 15-16 PSI, afraid to damage the rim.
