Catalyst suspension settings.

New chassis with a few different shock packages. A thread to help others adjust settings. I started with settings on my Fox iQS from my QS3 off my Alpha chassis. Two rides.

Ski- 65psi
FTS- 50psi
RTS- 140psi

Weight-215-220 with gear.

I don't think I'm even close, like the way it handles in powder and climbing but find myself alternating both feet to one side of boards on firmer snow to get through trees at medium and slow speeds when not steep. Too much effort and why I say it is too reminiscent of my Alpha chassis.

Set up 1 with Fox air shocks yesterday.. 60 in front skis 60 FTS and 130 RTS. 190 with gear on. He loves it. Snow had a pretty good base. Set one up with coil overs and it is softer than the air setup. That one is mine. Handles much better than Alpha with similar set up. This is not a setup for doing wheelies and bow ties. This is for getting out of creek bottoms and holes.

Some people are going to call me crazy but Mohawk skis have made a huge difference on both the Apha and the Catalyst. Been running them for years and I wanted to run the stock skis this year but they just felt bad. Even my buddy who has ran stock skis forever is switching to Mohawks this year. He agrees that they just seem to make the Catalyst feel a lot better. Just my opinion.
