How does this tool calculate edge hold?

It uses an edge pressure concentration model where `get_edge_hold_increase` calculates how bump height and placement create pressure spikes that increase mechanical interlock with the ice.

Can I find the best bump setup for hard ice?

Yes, you can use `get_optimal_bump_configuration` to suggest the best height and placement for specific ice hardness and edge angles.

What inputs are required for carving performance?

To use `calculate_carving_performance`, you need the additional hold percentage, the ice hardness, and the edge angle.

More Details Connect to Claude

This MCP server provides a technical simulation engine to calculate how surface imperfections, or 'bumps', affect snowboard edge engagement. By modeling edge pressure concentration, it determines how localized pressure spikes improve mechanical interlock with the ice. Use get_edge_hold_increase to find additional grip percentages, analyze_pressure_points to locate high-stress zones, calculate_carving_performance to estimate carving stability, and get_optimal_bump_configuration to find the best bump geometry for specific ice conditions.
