3 inch tires add an element I haven't yet experienced with inserts, but Andrew Major has and has written about Cushcore plus model. [https://nsmb.com/articles/cushcore-29-plus-inserts-much-more-good-thing/](https://nsmb.com/articles/cushcore-29-plus-inserts-much-more-good-thing/)
If you are getting the basketball effect, could it be that you are running too much pressure? In my experience on plus tires or even fat bike rubber, the key was finding the pressure that gave enough support without getting that bounce. I've been able to do so riding on the Shore but something we don't deal with much is intense cornering where tire deflection or roll becomes a problem. f you need more cornering support then Cushcore + might be the way forward so you can lower pressure without much compromise. Except weight!
How much pressure have you been running and what has kept you from going lower?
