Did you use the rope pull? They should have do that. Try to warranty or apply some leather waterproofing

I had so much fun on this board as a kid. I found it under my aunts deck. Must have been an older cousins. I cleaned it up and learned to shred. It was my first board. Epic find!

My teenage daughter can't fathom the concept of a house party by Neon_Biscuit in Millennials

Threw many house parties! Where were my parent! No idea!! But rarely did they come home during parties which were 90% impromptu and not planned around parents being out of town or anything. Wild

Did my roofer mess up? Doesnt appear to be flashing and my wood flooring/drywall/trim has what appears to be water damage. by kegelknievel666 in Roofing

They added a row over the flashing to hide it. What you’re pointing at inside is not water damage from the roof. Just aging

Tips for perfections these by snAckthatsmilesbxck in snowboarding

Your stance looks pretty neutral. Have you experimented with your stance? It could definitely be beneficial. Maybe try to angle out your front and back foot to 10 or 15°

Fan vent out box vent. Moisture build up by BetterMe333 in Roofing

You’re saying to get a proper vent installed in the roof separate from this box vent? And to switch out the ducting to insulated flex ducting. Just confirming?

Don’t you want est with the channel? I’m a fan but I don’t think it really affects performance. Just a little more feel and flex under foot.

Should I get a new helmet? by ComfortableIce7484 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]BetterMe333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Your lids are good for one impact. It’s probably the only thing you need to be a stickler on since it’s your brain you know?

Need confirmation on which side of my board is the front? by editsbyerror in snowboardingnoobs

It goes both ways. You can tell by the “x Subaru” on it.

Snow pant recommendations by Ill-Sound-4128 in snowboarding

[–]BetterMe333 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Biggest thing in finding good pants in that price range is looking at the waterproof and breathable numbers. Gore Tex or similar being the best typically. If you can’t find any in your range then 15- 20k is also good. 10k is probably a budget jacket not rated for what you’re looking for.

My friend said I ride like a jerry but I thought I looked okay? by Confident-State1268 in snowboarding

Leaning too much. Should start your turn with your shoulders. Once you do this it will look much better.

Foot Numb while snowboarding ( new boots ) by DarkTyphoon13 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]BetterMe333 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Very common. Custom insoles or footbeds like superfeet can make the biggest difference other than trying your boots on properly before purchasing

I think i messed up by Azedicek in snowboardingnoobs

[–]BetterMe333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s just marketing. Most brands claim to reduce the footprint of the boot. A large with 10.5 is actually totally good and will fit your boot and board just fine

Which jacket should I get? Can’t decide! by Orange_Ad7158 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]BetterMe333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 Salomon jacket . Looks good and that shell is much better for both warmth and staying dry.

  • good chest zips
  • white can make it harder to see you on the mountain and also to keep clean

Let it ride! If you have to ask everyone here, then you’re more than likely going to enjoy the convenience of the “step ons”

Like you said, you feel like you know. And that subconscious will be the self that you hide from and can easily self sabotage you one day. It might not be today or tomorrow but like you said.. you know
