I think something is wrong with your fork.
Yes and yes. 100% on both.

Come out here and ride this trail and tell me if your hands aren't tired...
There's something wrong with your fork.
Come ride/"ride" it with me. Thursday Oct 29?There's something wrong with your fork.
Everyone's invited.
You cover the ticket and COVID test, I'll cover the wagyu hybrid.Buy my plane ticket and cook me some steaks
i think my brother had one or two pics from his justice of the peace wedding which he probably burned after he kicked wife to the curb.
georgia boys in longmont has fantastic bbq when they do not run out....
Lower tire pressure. I would assume he cares not for rolling resistance and weight, so DH casing, cushcore and drop 5psi.There's something wrong with your fork.
Up front I have an EXO+. No issues with flats or tearing casings on front. Was running 25 psi front and back today, Cushcore + DD casing in rear.
I also used all my travel. It's just a 12 or so minute continuous downhill with lots and lots of rox. It is tiring!
There's definitely something wrong with your fork.
Because of psoriatic arthritis, hands are my achilles. Front tire pressure is huge in reducing pain and fatigue.
Also relaxing the arms and hands will help. You don't need a death grip if you let the bike move under you a bit. I used to have to stop mid descent to rest my hands several times. Worked on being looser and now I can do a full pull without complaints from the hands and am faster doing it.
Also, elbows up and bent.
Do some grip strength exercises then. I used to have grip and arm pump issues until I started doing them, and getting back into climbing made a big difference too.
Also, using all your travel doesn't necessarily mean your fork is working ideally, that's generally not the best metric for gauging suspension performance.
12 minute descent? how much altitude you losing over how many miles?
If I relax I'm afraid I'll just slide right off the bars. It was hands proper not forearm pump, too. Sore fingers, really.
Yeah, grip strength exercises would likely help. But then again no one's paying me to ride any faster than I feel like doing on a regular day.

'tis a nice bit. First steeper half mile section is "through the trees" basically. Fun!
A solid point do you make actually. But Project Mountain House comes first. Then wasting money on this and an 11-6 and whatever. You have a MRP Ribbon, right?Y u no coil fork??
Sì. Ribbon coil. No hand fatigue issues even on Cub Creek descent... and my hands are weak.
