Going up with the shocks makes:
- the sprins seem harder (more movement)
- and makes damping seem harder.

Both make the car more direct.
If you changed to a harder spring and go up a hole you make the effect bigger.
One of the good things of the 710 is you can really change the feel of the car. You may not like the agressive turn in, but others may well like that feeling. The feel changes but not so much the grip of the car.
