best set up for stock piggy backs

i have a 07 raptor with the stock piggy back shocks on it. i'm just curious what would be the best settings for a 280 pound rider riding trails and sometimes dunes and small jumps? is there any good settings you guys could recommend to me? basically i'm worried about the small jumps thing. everytime i get any air i bottom out. or if i come down off a hill in a wheeling while hauling ass i will bottom out at the base of the hill. i mean i'm not expecting to be riding on a cloud but i'm sure it could be better then i have it now.
i thank you for any help in advance.

just fyi if your bottoming out, that means your using all your travel, thats a good thing id think, but i could be wrong lol

using all your travel is good
if that bugs you, bump your compression a click or two to stiffen it some.
Have you done the full Preload set-up (IE unloaded total rear height vs loaded {should be 30% less} )
if not the how too is here:

no all i did was started turning the screws and guessing. lol the bottoming out thing doesn't bother me all that much but it sounds like hell when it hits. because it hit really hard. i'll try full preload set up thing
