Outcast Slapping at the park

[Mojoekai]

first time playing at the local skate park.
Nothing massive but lots of slap.
Exb outcast 6s...
Better to increase the shock oils? If so what to? I think exb stock is already 80wt
Extended the preload but rears still sags..
Any recommendations?
Daughter loves it too..yeyyy

Shock oil is for recoil.. Sounds like wore out springs to me!?

Ok,
So what springs to do I get.
I've read about csc but everything is on nackorder

Gotta say I am really liking the infraction/ oc spring combo. Still rocking the 90/70w oil lands great.

Infraction springs for an outcast..hmm didn't think of that

 

[SentFlying]

On top.. I used zip ties to keep them together.
Don't get concerned with a drop test. Just throw that... And see how it lands

Stiffer springs plus higher oil weight. Don't do one without the other.

 

[TriggerHappy]

Im running 1500cst in the rear due to the added weight of the max6 combo. Also spring are as far as they go

I have the Tekno orange rated springs on mine, seems to help

 

[jkflow]

Tekno orange are weaker than stock though.

Shocks dampen the blow all springs do is return the ride height after the shock compresses. A spring hard enough to affect the landing hit would be an aluminum sleeve lol.

No no bro.. Not quite how they work??

 

[Da Spanky]

the weight of oil, amount of holes in the pistons basically control how fast the spring reacts weather its rebound or compression, heavy spring/oil or light spring/oil combos that and holes in the piston changes that reaction as well

 

[SentFlying]

The infraction/ OC combo acts as dual rate. I can agree a shock oil change could assist in the rate of compression or rebound, but with my setup I have no issue landing. It doesn't bounce/ jump after landing.

Fwiw I am also running the stock setup 25t/50t and Mojave shoes lol.

See @Da Spanky’s reply

 

[Da Spanky]

one thing I forgot, if you do a heavy spring and light oil, it will bounce like a low rider

 

[leroychurchill]

Am I the only one that doesn’t think the chassis slapping the concrete matters?? Like what do you expect it ways 12 pounds and is landing from five + feet.

 

[Da Spanky]

as long as it lands flat shouldn't hurt it, have you ever seen them race 1/8 nitro buggys all they do is slap the the ground

It’s bad for the electronics and stuff. They don’t tolerate it for long

 

[Revomikey]

Let it slap, trying to stop it will send the force to something that will break, mine slaps all the time and it rarely breaks.
