Thanks. I'm 200+lbs w/o gear, maybe 5% flex compare to TD3 Elast by it self, so for lighter rider might not make anydiff. With this combo is the comfort that I'm chasing for and the bonus since you ride comfortably over the cruds, ice, bumps, chops, your mind can concentrate on your riding. When switch back to TD3 Elast its like a plank hitting under yr boots everytime deck hits cruds. U'll be tad higher but no diff when ride/paddle.
No, I didn't and I won't. I even won't do it on TD2 Elast, I rather shorten/widen my stance. There was a discussion on BOL
Hope this will help.
