## Description

This MCP server provides specialized physics-based calculations for snowboarders. It bridges the gap between static boot ratings and real-world riding conditions. By using tools like `get_effective_flex` and `calculate_response_time`, riders can determine how their weight and terrain will change the perceived stiffness of their gear. You can also use `analyze_ride_suitability` to check if your setup matches your riding style, such as Carving or Freestyle, and `evaluate_comfort_performance_balance` to find the sweet spot between control and ease of use.

## Tools

### analyze_ride_suitability
Compares the current boot/rider setup against a specific riding style to determine if the gear is appropriate

### calculate_response_time
Estimates the latency (in milliseconds) of energy transfer from boot to edge

### evaluate_comfort_performance_balance
Quantifies the tension between the rider's desire for control (performance) and the desire for ease of use (comfort)

### get_effective_flex
Determines the actual stiffness the rider will experience given their physical weight and the equipment setup

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
I am a 85kg rider on groomed terrain using a boot with a flex rating of 7. What is my effective flex?
```

**Response:** 
```
Your effective flex rating is 6.4, with a load impact factor of 0.91 due to your weight on groomed terrain.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is a flex rating of 4 suitable for Carving?
```

**Response:** 
```
No, a flex rating of 4 is too soft for Carving, which requires high stiffness for maximum energy transfer and edge hold.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much response time will I get with a flex of 8 and a binding angle of 15 degrees?
```

**Response:** 
```
Your estimated response time is 42ms, providing a high responsiveness score for precise control.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does rider weight affect boot flex?**
Heavier riders compress the boot more, which results in a lower effective flex rating compared to lighter riders using the same boot.

**Can I use this to prepare for specific terrain?**
Yes, by using `analyze_ride_suitability`, you can determine if your current boot setup is appropriate for conditions like Powder, Groomed runs, or Moguls.

**What is the difference between rating and effective flex?**
The rating is the manufacturer's static value, while the effective flex is the actual stiffness experienced after accounting for rider weight and terrain resistance.
