You cut the center of the bladder out and left an o-ring in to seal the top right?

I did exactly what was done in the video below since I don't have bleed holes on my aluminum caps yet.

Just curious as to what is the difference in feel from emulsion to stock setup, but with stock going down to a much lighter shock oil, like maybe 15wt?

and it doesnt bounce after a landing, and it took the whoops real smooth like. all in all, imo it settled down the scte, it just felt a little smoother everywhere on the track. i like the way it feels, some may not. but it is a good tuning option. im stickin with the emulsion style shocks for a while.
