A fluid redirection system comprising:
- a damper piston, the damper piston having a plurality of compression ports and a plurality of rebound ports;
- and
- a fluid ramp on a first side of the damper piston, the fluid ramp being of a shape that creates an angled exit for fluid exiting the damper piston.
A fluid redirection system comprising:
- a damper piston, the damper piston having a plurality of compression ports and a plurality of rebound ports;
- a fluid ramp on a first side of the damper piston, the fluid ramp being of a shape that creates an angled exit for fluid exiting the damper piston;
- and
- a second fluid ramp on a second side of the damper piston, the second fluid ramp being of a shape that creates an angled exit for fluid exiting the damper piston.
