Stiff midsole still allowing ankle roll on descents?

I expected a stiffer midsole to stop any ankle roll once the pack was loaded, but on the first real descent they still twisted enough to tweak something. Switched to a different last mid-hike and the foot sat higher in the cuff without that same give.

The last change lifting the foot higher probably gave that extra cuff bite right where the ankle wanted to twist on the way down.

That’s exactly what the switch did, foot sat higher and the cuff held tighter on the way down without any give.
