I've read the Ohlins manual and they mention clockwise and counter clock wise. Sure thats all well and good for the compression adjuster on say a front ski shock.
On the rebound adjuster for the EC shock clockwise could be either direction depending on which side of the knob you are looking at. So, if I turn the knob as shown in the photo below how will the rebound change.
Thanks!!!

In the photo shown.... turning it that way will allow for faster rebound.
Common sense tells me that clockwise, or "in" is slower rebound.
Counterclockwise, or "out" is faster rebound.
I've never seen a shock that's any different.
Basicly what you're doing is turning a tapered needle valve that is allowing more or less oil flow. So turning it in will block more oil flow & out will allow for more oil flow.

Thanks for those replies.
My confusion was just regarding the EC shock but the video is a great way to show the effect.
