Bringing this back to the top. I have played with my set up a but and think it's close. I am probably 180 with gear on

56 front shocks
65 center shock (going to try 70)
125 rear shock.

Setting 2 on all shocks last ride.

I think these sleds need more in the center to take away the ski pressure that I found with 50 or less lbs.

^maybe just bump it back down a notch when youre going vertical-extreme.
i tend to leave my shocks set for climbing and deal with a little bit of boredom on the flats. but where youre riding and who youre with is sometimes worth changing it up a bit.

Not much vertical extreme any more since I got rid if the turbo, more like mediocre side hills lol. No issues on the flats either. ... It is the steeper tree technical decent to side hill maneuvers that made me play with it. I felt the skis we're to planted in this situation. More air in the center seams to help this.
This is the nice thing about the QS shocks. Adjust on the fly as needed.

I now have 65 in the skis change during the day#1-#3 depending on what im doing.

75psi in the FTS #2 never touch it. Thinking about adding more air........

I think its still 135psi in the rear(haven't touched the air since december) i change during the day#1-#2
When its deep and steep i like flipping it to #3, so nice to flip a switch

I think so. My 14 i can grab the ski with one hand and flip the sled over in the garage.
My 18, i can barely lift the sled high enough to put the dollies under the ski.

I lied a bit.
Ski shocks are 58psi not 65psi.
Just pumped center shock to 85psi.
Gonna try that this weekend.

Pumped my center to 75 and left the rear at 125. This set up worked awesome today. I never felt like I was fighting the sled at all.
This is where it will stay for the next few rides.
