Grind magnetism is busted

It doesn't seem like the grind magnetism in the grind assistance really changes much, especially if you want to have zero assistance, it still snaps to ledges and rails.

Often connecting on ledges or rails with other edges nearby them will cause the skater to magnetise to an edge you're not trying to hit.

A really consistent example of this is the Ledge Hopper challenge next to the chapel in Gullcrest. It kept magnetising to the small ledge at the foot of the ledge i was trying to ollie onto. I would full-power ollie and it would steal all the pop and turn it into a micro ollie aimed at the floor...

Changing the grind assistance to zero and also to max and at various other levels would not fix this. 

Super annoying!!!!

    I just find it to be really uncertain, I turned down the grind assistance because it was too easy.

    Now for most grinds it's just right, but some I simply cannot hit the grind, it just glides right over every time. Worst is in that indoor church skatepark, I used to love skate that spot but now I just ollie right over every rail and ledge on the funbox. 

    I guess I could turn grind assist back up again, but then the rest of the map would be overly magnetic to everything. Can't win!
