Too high rebound damping forces keeping the damper compressed causing you to stay in the high spring rate bump stops. This can cause the jumpy feeling since the dampers likely aren't tuned for those higher spring rate forces. There isn't much damper travel before the bump stops start to get engaged.

With your off-road rig experience, you're probably very familiar with not having such a high rebound-biased setup too.
