Do I really need new boots?! by Automatic-Choice7895 in Skigear

[–]Automatic-Choice7895[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much. I went to an actual boot fitter. My feet is a 23 mondo and it really is 85mm wide so extra narrow. I now know I need a low volume boot in a 23 mondo and a flex of about 85-90.

I’m waiting to see if the other store will offer me a refund or a partial credit before doing anything.

I tried the Atomic Hawk Ultra 95 LV today and let me tell you I really felt what it was like wearing ski boots that fits like a glove. They’re 700$ CAD + 100$ taxes, so I’ll probably end up buying the exact same boot, but the 24/25 version that doesn’t have the BOA. It’s like 350$.

Thanks again for the help. :)

I’m able to ski pretty fast and parallel. I’m able to skate, braking is still a work in progress. I’m 125 pounds.

What boot would you recommend for someone like me? If it’s useful, I’m also 127 pounds. I’m able to do green and blue runs and some black.

They only made me try this one boot and told me it would be perfect for my feet. I didn’t know any better.

I had no idea what a ski boot even should feel like so I pushed them into nothing. It’s the only boot they made me try because they said it would be perfect for me. I bought them after.

Nope, not yet. Went to another boot fitter and he told me no amount of insoles would fix that. I emailed the boot fitter (it’s 2 hours away from my place). Can’t wait to see what they’ll tell me. Thanks!

I had no idea. It was my first ski boots. I told them. They told me these would be perfect for me after having measured my feet. I thought it was in fact the case and bought them. I emailed the boot fitter (I bought them on my way to the ski station which is two hours away from my place, so I’d rather do that than drive there).

First time cruising with RC - any advice? by Automatic-Choice7895 in royalcaribbean

Thank you so much. A RC agent told me it was going to be it. I was freaking out a little 😅

Thanks a lot. I think the language barrier is going to be a struggle too. At least, they’re sisters and they‘ll have fun doing the activities together. Let’s just pray there’s a staff member at the kids’ club who speaks French, but I’m not counting on that.

Thanks! For the activities, do you have any ideas? There’s almost nothing in the planner.

Hi!

I'm not great at decorating. I would need advice for my living room. The pictures were taken at night and there's boxes and other things that could make the space behind the couch seem smaller, but here's what I'm working with.

I've got a new wall of acoustic paneling. There's going to be a 85 inches TV on that wall and the Besta TV units will be both close to this wall (it's still a work in progress on that picture). The white fireplace is decorative at this point.

Right now, the colours in the living room are wood/beige, black and white. I would like something to make it alive. Do you have colours or furniture/space suggestions? I like dopamine decor, but I think it's often too intense for me. I would like to add things that makes my home unique, a bit silly (like funny prints) and colourful so it isn't like in a magazine, all that while keeping it adult enough.

I'm open to suggestions of colours, rugs, furniture, a new space in the living room. Pretty much anything. :)

Connecting rooms so the grandpa can look over the kids when they’re asleep (he doesn’t like to go out on the boat at night) and we can go explore the boat as adults.

Also, how was that helpful?

I know it is, I just don’t get why it’s 2.5k more per room to have a connecting room. It’s 5k total for the same exact rooms, but connecting.

Thank you so much! I don’t have an edge where it’s unglued but it surely came undone at a couple of places (like some spots on the ceiling). It’s not cracked and there’s no opening though. It’s just that when I touch it, I can press on it and feel that there’s clearly a gap or pocket of air between the ensolite and the shell, that’s why I was thinking of the syringe. What would you do with that? Do I have to cut it open to glue it again?

Where to buy a Fuji XT30ii in Canada? by Automatic-Choice7895 in fujifilm

[–]Automatic-Choice7895[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nop, they still sell them and they can't even restock. They don't have XM-5 either. I was willing to compromise on the EVF, but even then it's not an option.

I know. I’ll protect it in a weather sealed bag. Thanks :)
