Freeriding on air, 66 ata more specifically

[unskilled]

anyone riding 66 ata from 2008 already? Wondering what size drops/stunts people are doing on air vs. coil .

[gunslingger]

the shock is just as strong, you can actually set it really soft and never bottom out so it is forgiving. get one.

many people a dropping 45 feet...

i'm looking at the fork, not the shock. i'm told that people worry about running 66 ata 's cranked down to like 160 or 140mm and running them like that.

i really would not worry about an air fork, or shock for that matter. i weight 260 lbs on any given day and have thrashed many air forks and shocks. be leave it or not i have actually had two major failures and only one failure on and air fork (some how it got scratched on the inside of the stanction). i have had one coil fail on a fork, it broke in half, and there was no spring bind. it must have been a bad spring from the factory. that other failure that i have had was that some how the eyelet on the shock shaft came off, the company didn't warranty!!.

like i said i have only had one warranty related to an air spring and that is after owning many, 10+, air forks or shocks throughout the years.

btw i have done drops up to the 10' range on air products. personally i like the ramp up characteristics or air products. its very hard to bottom them all the way out.
