# Butter Trick Mechanics is a physics engine. AI Agent Connect

> Butter Trick Mechanics uses physics-based calculations to model snowboarding maneuvers. It determines how much board flexion you need and where to shift your weight to maintain stability during presses and rotations. Connect it to your AI client to run mechanical simulations for specific rider weights and board flex ratings.

## Description

If you are trying to nail a specific press or rotation, guessing your body position is a recipe for a wipeout. This MCP treats snowboarding maneuvers as a physics problem. It calculates the specific mechanical requirements for board flexion and rider balance based on your weight and equipment specs. You can use it to figure out exactly how much you need to shift your weight to initiate a press or where to stand on the board to stay stable during a rotation. Instead of trial and error on the snow, you get hard numbers on displacement, stability ratings, and success probabilities. It's a technical way to approach trick progression by looking at the actual physics of the board and the rider.

## Tools

### analyze_stance_impact
This tool evaluates how your specific stance configuration changes the difficulty of a butter trick.

### calculate_press_physics
Use this to find the exact physical displacement needed to start and hold a board press.

### find_balance_position
This tool identifies the best longitudinal spot on the board to keep you stable during a trick.

### predict_trick_outcome
This tool provides a mechanical feasibility assessment for any maneuver you plan to attempt.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
How much weight shift do I need for a 75kg rider on a board with 5 flex for a 2 second press?
```

**Response:** 
```
The required weight shift is 12.5 cm and the expected press depth is 4.2 cm.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Where should a 60kg rider stand for a 180-degree rotation on a flex 3 board?
```

**Response:** 
```
The optimal balance point is 15.0 cm from the center of the board with a stability rating of 0.85.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Will a 80kg rider succeed at a high-rotation trick on a stiff board?
```

**Response:** 
```
The predicted difficulty score is 7.5 and the success probability is 0.62.
```

## Capabilities

### Weight Shift Calculation
Your agent calculates the exact centimeters of movement needed to initiate a press.

### Stability Mapping
The AI finds the longitudinal position that keeps you from washing out during a trick.

### Feasibility Modeling
Your client predicts the success probability of a maneuver based on rider weight and board flex.

### Stance Analysis
The tool evaluates how your feet placement affects the difficulty of the trick.

### Press Depth Estimation
The engine determines how much the board will actually bend under your weight.

## Use Cases

### Trick Planning
Calculate the weight shift needed for a specific press before you hit the snow.

### Equipment Matching
See how a stiffer or softer board changes the physics of your favorite tricks.

### Stability Optimization
Find the exact balance point to stay stable during high-rotation maneuvers.

### Progression Tracking
Compare the difficulty scores of different tricks to plan your training.

## Benefits

- Replaces guesswork with specific centimeter and stability measurements.
- Models the interaction between rider weight and board flex.
- Provides a mathematical success probability for planned maneuvers.

## How It Works

You connect the MCP to your AI client and start asking technical questions about snowboarding physics.

1. Connect the MCP to Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf via Vinkius.
2. Provide your weight, board flex, and the trick you want to perform.
3. Your AI client uses the physics tools to run the calculations.
4. Get specific data on weight shifts, balance points, or success probabilities.

## Frequently Asked Questions
