@kylezg said in Carveability on Gemini App:
I thought turning was accomplished by leaning and using the edge of the wheel. So, on the new Gemini app, how does the Carveability setting work? It does really seem to work, though.
While trying to understand how to execute a really sharp low speed turn I found what Bodhi Harrison said about digging the a corner into the ground really helpful. Here was the video. https://youtu.be/V4cyi-wZCPU?t=41
His explanation worked for me. That it is not just bringing the the OW to the edge of the tire to turn, but to dip the front corner of the board into the turn. I think this is where loose vs tight comes into play. It would be hard to make a tight toe side turn if the board is tight and is fighting my effort to drive the toe side corner of the board close to the ground. Delirium allows me to more easily push the nose and tail down, so in turn it makes it easier to push the front toe side corner to the ground when turning. Same is true for heel side. So the looseness of the front and rear translates to how easy it is to dip the leading corner into a turn, thus giving the feeling of a more carvey board.
