Dave, that some serious geekery there, very impressed. I'm very curious if you were hitting any jumps when you were doing this testing or was it all basically just trail with tyres mostly on the ground? I find that's a reason quite a lot of people run their shocks rebound slower than maybe it should be, because if you don't use good technique, you can easily get ejected if the rebounds' fast. I know that I'm not a jumper and my technique sucks, so if I'm going to be hitting jumps, I will actually slow the rebound down a click or 2 depending. The riding I do actually enjoy, is slower speed tech, where a slower rebound works better, IMHO.
