Watched Schooled and they talk about riser height, I was running with a 9" riser but I think I am gonna switch to a 5" for a trip to see if I can notice a difference. In the movie they talk about staying low and more to the front of the sled. Helps when side hilling etc. What do you think???

I did the same after the first school'd. Only advice I'll give is bring the 9'' with you! I'm at a 12'' riser now. Pretty sure those guys aren't 6'3''?

I think he does have a good point with trying to stay forward on the sled, but I also think the riser height is mostly personal preference... Wouldn't hurt to try both though!
