Closed cell backing rod, cut to mimic a Vittoria Airliner. Have a year on them so far, bit of shrinkage but definitely notice when I pull them out. Bike frame is a Borealis Flume, but I think I'd go with a Rocky Mountain Blizzard or something similar if doing it again.
Where in Michigan? I'm Detroit-ish, and it's great for the trails around here and near the top of the mitten, not sure it would do so well in the UP - casing with it hurts, and so do drops bigger than ~5 ft. Rock gardens surprisingly not bad though.
