Front forks 2018/19 Yeti Toby Till

So here is the story..... called Toby Till he said you have to set up the fork with more than an airpro to get the yeti running like it should... I thought here we go buying more crap and will be in the same place... man was I wrong... he recommended the spot on spring rate and oil then had them made.... all I have to say is my whole set up is magical and I am so happy... besides that he had other recommendations and kept in stock storage options that worked really well... he mentioned with valving it gets even better... we will see next season but I am really so happy with the speed increase you can slice through trees and gives you th feeling of shifting directions as fast as skiing ....

wwillf01, with the stiffer springs, does the 2018/2019 yeti have, or can be adjusted if one wants, to be fairly light on the front ski? Meaning light enough to be a bit playful on those non-deep, non-steep days? I've not been on a yeti and am trying to find out if one can set them up so the front end will get enough front ski lift for those situations where one wants it. Like if you have to hit a creek crossing head on rather than at an angle, can you whack open the throttle at the last second to get ski lift so the ski hits the other side and climbs rather than lawn darting into the opposite side and getting stuck up to the handlebars. I know hard to describe what I'm getting at and evaluate against other kits without the two being ridden on the same model bike the same day/conditions, but just trying to get an idea. Not looking for it to be so light that you have to stand and be over the bars on a steep uphill climb. Just wondering about getting the front end light with throttle for trail whoops, creek crossings, and those "oh crap" moments then you fly up on a situation where you need that front ski pressure off immediately (sink hole, shallow-buried log/rock, etc.) and leaning back, whacking open the throttle and getting that ski up saves the day.

Having a snow specific fork is a must IMHO. Ive bottomed so hard I dont know how I didnt damage internal parts. Blows me away that guys run AER forks that sell used for 1500clams on the snow, when a 200$ set of OC forks setup for another 300$ work waayy better.
