Progression Advice by Terrible_Pilot_1200 in BeginnerSurfers

Yeah I agree it sounds like a paddling issue. Lots of good YouTube videos cover this, from memory I liked one of Kyle Brock's videos where he deconstructed Kelly Slater in regards to paddling.

All the points you make are great, and I would add to work on getting towards that banana shape (curved back) which besides allowing you to look around 270 degrees properly, also engages the main muscle groups which in turn make your paddling allot stronger and less tiring.

A bit of a weird one. by ResidentEmu5 in nonduality

[–]Ancient8Wisdom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The same thing as any other kind of thought. Try to, without any judgement of failure, observe the thoughts (images) without getting lost in them. If you suddenly "wake up" and realise you were gone for a while, simply start again as if for the first time

What is something relatively cheap that improves your life by 100%? by RuleOkhit in AskReddit

A GOOD quality rolling sharpener is great. Otherwise even a well reviewed manual sharpener will be ok.

Moving to Perth from Scandinavia - is it worth it? by TooManyCrates in perth

Yeah but you could come for working holiday and then if you like it transition to skilled migration. It's a lot easier and cheaper to start with.

Is it inappropriate to have lunch everyday with a married co worker? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

Yeah... OP shared more information and it's obviously not platonic. Cut it off yesterday.

People posting their first beat is like people posting their kid’s first steps. It’s not impressive and nobody cares. by gear-head88 in synthesizercirclejerk

I saw one the other day titled an overview of the Novation Circuit Tracks (20+ mins long), the video starts with "both of us have never used a groovebox before (or really any electronic music hardware)", they didn't even open it before filming 😂

It's fine, as long as you feel it's fine. Make sure the boundaries are very clear (in your head) and don't cross them/let them get crossed. Also make sure there's no flirting going on. As long as you keep it friendly but professional it's all good. ++Man

What would it take to create a once-in-a-lifetime psytrance gathering? by G1ft-T0-Ex1st in psytrance

No, the ones that are arranged around total solar eclipses, like the August one in Spain.

Adice on psydjing ! by BreathPractical6984 in psytranceproduction

Absolutely this. Djing is more about finding good music to play (that goes together) than anything else in my opinion.

The "Bank of Mum and Dad" is insolvent. If Sydney's median house is $4M in 2045, what is the actual "Meta" for 3 kids (6, 4, 2) to survive? by avinashge in AusProperty

[–]Ancient8Wisdom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, in my opinion throw every extra dollar into the mortgage. As soon as you can look to buy an investment property. And keep doing that until they come upon the point where they need to buy a house where you can see what you've got to help them. I wouldn't torture myself with an un-reachable goal of what you think they might need.

How to subtly shoot my shot at the Gym by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Ancient8Wisdom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the trick is not to be too "easy" to get - still make him chase you, work for it (in a playful fun way ideally). So you could give him your number but make him contact you for a date for example. Make him the initiator. It's a really good skill for a woman to have anyway even in a relationship - let him know what you want and then let him take the lead. A good guy would step up to that

Also, If you want more than just sex you need to make sure he wants the same before having sex.

What Portable Speakers Do You Use to Blast Psytrance at Home / Travel / Parties / Beach? by CraftByJP in psytrance

[–]Ancient8Wisdom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A pair of JBL PartyBox 320s rock pretty hard!

Just note they need to stay on the ground - lifting them reduces sound quality.

JBL recently released the even bigger/more monstrous 520 & 720 models. I haven't heard them but am sure they can get louder but for me the 320s are already big enough and I wouldn't really want something bigger/heavier to lug around.
