# Carve Turn Radius Physics AI Agent Connect

> Carve Turn Radius Physics MCP uses sidecut geometry and physical variables to model how a snowboard interacts with snow. Your AI client can calculate turning radii, determine the G-forces you'll feel in a turn, and check if your edge hold is strong enough to prevent slipping based on snow hardness and board flex.

## Description

You can use this MCP to turn your AI client into a specialized sports science tool. Instead of guessing how a board will react, you provide variables like edge angle, snow hardness, and board flex to get hard numbers. It calculates the actual radius of a turn based on how the sidecut engages with the snow. You can also determine the physical load on a rider by quantifying G-forces or calculating the exact force an edge needs to exert to stay locked in. This is useful for testing how different gear setups or riding styles will perform under specific conditions without needing to be on the mountain.

## Tools

### analyze_carve_stability
This tool checks if your current turn parameters are sustainable or if you're about to slip.

### calculate_carve_radius
This tool finds the actual radius of a turn by looking at sidecut geometry and engagement.

### calculate_edge_hold
This tool determines the total force an edge must exert to keep the board from sliding out.

### calculate_turn_intensity
This tool measures the physical G-force load a rider experiences during a turn.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is my turning radius if my edge angle is 45 degrees and my sidecut radius is 15 meters?
```

**Response:** 
```
Your calculated turning radius is 10.61 meters.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much G-force will I feel if I turn at a radius of 12 meters at a speed of 10 m/s?
```

**Response:** 
```
You will experience approximately 0.85 Gs during this turn.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the edge hold force for a 70kg rider at a 10m radius and 12 m/s speed on groomed snow (1.0 hardness).
```

**Response:** 
```
The required edge hold force is 1018.56 Newtons.
```
