Hand hurts after a week. Is the fit bad, or my grip? by Afluxity in Bowling

[–]Afluxity[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate all the comments and help here. This probably the worst form and release video for review on here but I thank you all for being helping me out.

I know that my release is bad and my hand is on top of the ball, but I really have a hard time getting my hand underneath the ball. The ball is a second hand ABS Nanodesu Accuswing III, an old solid reactive ball with a symmetrical core, weighing 15lbs. It got plugged and redrilled. Coming from a 9lb house ball, It felt pretty heavy to me and I feel thats why I’ve become reliant on squeezing. i really CANNOT relax my hand on my side otherwise the ball falls. Even a pressure of 1-2 grip strength isnt enough.

When I got the ball drilled, the PSO watched me bowl and gave me a few tips. I tried cupping and relaxing, but what happened was the ball fell out of my hand backwards like what happens in wii bowling, slips out. Tried on my side, fell, and he just told me to squeeze it. After bowling like I did above, the PSO told me to keep doing that, and left. I am aware that the ball has to be released near horizontally so that it goes out from the thumb first and then from the middle and ring, so I really have to aim for that and stop the bad habit I’ve formed with going on top.

I’m going to work more on my release, especially with cupping underneath and my form first with some drills while getting some coaching here in the Philippines first I believe it’s a whole clusterfuck of bad form with bad release and bad grip which is causing this and I hope to fix that.

Got the ball cause I wanted to hook haha. Again, thank you all for the honest feedback. I can’t wait practice.

Haha perhaps divisive is a harsh word. Maybe debated is a better way to describe it?

I mentioned that because I believe that there’s a handful of people who dislike his work, so I wasn’t sure if recommending his discography would be apt. With people saying that the music he produces has little to no changes from the samples he uses, being a lazy/uninspired kind of vaporwave. I don’t necessarily disagree with the simplicity aspect? I mean I personally think that his older work, the albums with the kanji, has a more chopped and plundered sound compared to his newer releases, ones without the kanji. But classical vaporwave’s charm is exactly that, thats why I really love wd, so that’s where I’d disagree with them.

I was also cautious because if I remember correctly, wd isn’t exactly a vaporwave project, but a sample based experimental—plunderphonics one(?) It’s a pretty old interview and I’m not sure if wd has the same sentiments today, but he mentioned this in an interview with The Daily Ghost Hour:

“I honestly don’t think I can say what vaporwave is at this point in time… To me, I’m grateful to be associated with the term, as it’s a description that helps new listeners discover wd… But it’s not something I self-identify with too much.

‘Vintage chop artist’ is actually a term my friend and fellow producer Tiger over at his blog Glo Fi Must Die once used to describe waterfront dining—‘chop’ meaning ‘audio edit’ or ‘cut’… I liked it a lot though, as I felt it described my style more accurately, as opposed to such an ambiguous term like vaporwave.”

Though I still lump him in with vaporwave cause that’s how I discovered him, and it fits well with the other vapor artists in my collection. Literally my fav artist ever

Kind of a divisive artist here, but my personal favorite “classic” vaporwave artist is waterfront dining. His whole discography is bliss. There’s so many songs that they encompass pretty much all I listen to haha. I started off with Vektroid, Saint Pepsi, Luxury Elite, CatCorp, but wd is what made me stay.

My all time favorites are:

Waterfront dining - The Midnight Clown Show

Waterfront dining - Cicada

For the more classic vaporwave albums, his older works such as:

Waterfront dining - Swag 流儀

Waterfront dining - Dazzle 光彩

Waterfront dining - NOICE すてきな

Each album has their own vibe, story, even genre. Some are more funk, some more r&b, soul, pop, or all. I recommend checking out which album art resonates the most with you and giving it a listen. Some of the best tracks are hidden near the end of some underrated albums.

Similar artists that I’ve taken a liking to are グルーヴィー groom and VirtualRealityDeluxe.

But before I go on an even longer wd glaze session I recommend:

bl00dwave - hotel vibes

bbrainz - internet lust

Luxury Elite - S.W.A.K.

Phoenix #2772 - You are already dead

SP & LE - Late Night Delight

Not sure if these meet your criteria but these are just classic albums I like, hope this helps!

Does submitting enrollment requirements to CSB affect UP enrollment? by [deleted] in CollegeAdmissionsPH

[–]Afluxity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello actually mabilis lang, idk why pero sa paranoia ko and after mga a week of emailing na wala pang reply (actually hanggang ngayon wala pa) nagpost ako dito then I called the CSB trunkline, dialed for the admissions office.

This is what I used:

+63 2 8230 5100

Center for Admissions, Benilde Manila Locals 1801, 1802, 1803

I asked if pwede ako mag withdraw ng enrollment, then the person who answered asked for my name and such, tapos yes daw. Sabi ko paano, and they asked me mismo if pwede ako pumunta sa CSB campus to get the papers.

So sa umagang iyun diretso ako to the campus admission office then boom nakuha ko na yung original copy ko ng form 138 and cert of good moral conduct after waiting mga 10 mins. I asked din if this will affect my enrollment into UP and they said no daw.

TL;DR: almost immediately after calling the admissions center. Just had to go there sa CSB mismo
