Here is the deal. I was getting the Viper ready a couple of weeks ago and noticed it was sitting really strange. I checked my ski shocks ( float 3 with Hygear Dual pressure) and on one shock the shock was almost out of pressure and the other side the Hygear had no pressure. I pumped them back up thinking that they just lost the air from sitting over summer. I picked up a new set of C&A XPT skis and was putting them on yesterday and thought I would check the shocks again. They were both low again. So I took them off and pumped them up and stuck them in a bucket of water for 40 minutes ..........nothing not one bubble. I adjusted them to riding pressure and re installed them. I will check again in a week or so. Any thoughts?
 

Maybe the schrader valve was sticking?
If your in canada, its probably kind of cold there. A little piece of ice or even moisture that freezes in those valves can cause issues like that.
Sometimes pumping them up gets the ice out of the way.
