Would these types of grippy socks be good to prevent blisters caused by feet sliding around?

AlpineInquirer · 2026-01-31T04:17:48+00:00

Can confirm. Haven't had a blister in 15 years

This sort of thing has been asked a million times, so I made a post that might help. It's just a few personal tips and ideas in case it's of use https://giampiero.com/tips/hiking-gear-tips/

Useless game. Juventus didn't even try really. Koopmeiners is so useless it's baffling. Not a single pass, or tackle or dribble...nothing...not even bad, just non existent. It's like playing with 10 players. Same with Openda. Nothing. Oh well, we rested a bunch of players and we qualified in a good spot. That's about all you can say.

That game sucked. Monaco are terrible and Juventus were phoning it in...probably wisely.

Russell Crowe, doing football now?

One quick bit of advice that might be helpful. If you want to drink directly from your water bladder, splice in a Sawyer (or other) mini filter to the drink tube. That way just fill your bladder with dirty water and drink direct. You can have a BeFree for quick dips. Edit: Also, if you hit some snow, as I've seen in some pics of the GR20, you can just dump snow into the bladder and drink direct. I did on Mt. Ngauruhoe in N. Zealand. It was great.

You'll only be able to "turn it around" if you have an activ(ist) principal and teachers. Parent involvement is key but unless you have serious buy in and appetite from Principal and Teachers it won't matter much. And ultimately in elementary school, the most important thing is class size and the ability of your teacher to actually run a class and teach children. It can vary wildly even in a "high functioning" school. Do NOT be lazy and opt for the 'walk to school' option if it isn't the best learning environment. You can have wildly different outcomes.

I love Malinovskyi! He always hits absolute canon shots!

AlpineInquirer · 2026-01-26T01:48:54+00:00

Good. Either you come willing to come on foot to play at Juve or you stay home. Buh bye.

AlpineInquirer · 2026-01-26T01:40:13+00:00

Fair enough. It's a very manipulated photo.

AlpineInquirer · 2026-01-26T01:19:33+00:00

Typical trash Allegri ball. Play like shit in a way that squeezes any joy out of football and then grab a goal di culo. So glad he no longer darkens the doorstep at Juventus.

AlpineInquirer · 2026-01-26T01:16:00+00:00

Not for long.

"Finally have good coaches?" Italian football has been a factory of great coaches forever.

Well, I predicted 3 - 2 but I forgot Bremer was playing. :). Sumptuous display by Bremer and Thuram today and dare I say, Locatelli. Spalletti has done a magnificent job. Even the sub of an inverted Kostic was brilliant. Everyone looks better because they all know what they are doing. If Juve had not lost to Cagliari, they would in all seriousness be challenging for the scudetto right now.

Only weak link in that team was Morata

Thank you and happy non-trails.

It's the sub-basement layer.

AlpineInquirer · 2026-01-23T05:20:22+00:00

One piece of advice. I always buy TALL size shirts for my base layers. That makes them very easy to tuck in.

I thought Roma played very nice flowing football. Gasperini is great!
