OK, trying to get a little more bite from my ski's in the corners. If I tighten the front shock in my skid this will be less ski pressure, and if I losen the shock in my skid this will give me more ski pressure, right?

Should I do anything with the limiter straps up there? Any suggestions would help greatly! Skid is pretty much broken in, and I have not adjusted anything yet.

He helped me and my sled rides better, and rails pretty darn good using stock skis and 4" carbides w/o studs.

I have the rage myself. I tightened up my limiter straps by just 5 turns of the nuts and it made a world of difference. The inside ski lift is still there but not nearly as bad. By keeping that ski down you automatically get more out of the corners and not having the fear of lift I charge into corners a lot harder now. I have 990 miles on mine, I adjusted the straps at around 700 and the last 300 miles have been great!
 
Limiter straps control on-gas ski pressure.
Spring tension controls off-gas ski pressure (to some degree).

Control rods also control on-gas ski pressure.


Increase ski pressure; tighten limiter straps, put the control rod nuts in position for lower transfer.
