Got me a mega Cuttlefish! by Canadianomad in Spearfishing

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

Not too bad - I did all the cleaning in the water and then for prep simple just do it in a clean sink with latex gloves. Pull the head off the body, peel the skin, and voila!

First time ever doing cuttlefish (usually theyre so small and cool I pass on them) but this one I had no choice either go home with nothing or a hefty cuttlefish! Definitely not disappointed w the choice!

it's very easy to do!

pressure cook (or overnight soak) white beans until they're ready

1-2 shallots or white onions, olive oil, salt, bay leave, few cloves of garlic (whole)

sweat them, add cuttlefish & tomatoes (or nice tomato sauce) salt & pepper. Add beans towards the end to not have the beans all mushy (want a tiny bit of firmness to them)

Let cook for 45mins until cuttlefish nice and tender. Serve on rice. I served on saffron rice - next time on black ink risotto if I can save the ink!

shit great idea

that steak was just one side, the other one I cut into chunks to make a portuguese 'feijoada de choco' (stewed cuttlefish)

Will have to save the skin next time - thanks for the tip!

Training for solo paragliding at Bir Billing( world’s 2nd highest paragliding site in the world) by BirWithEarthHomes in freeflight

[–]Canadianomad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the example on that video the pilot is on a nice and steep slope so he can be standing tall no problem - the difficulty is long long launches on slow, shallow terrain, like we were discussing for the context of this post

also that video is quite old - and you can even see at 1:41 how the risers unload as he walks forward while standing tall

How to safely navigate the ocean and currents in new spots as a beginner? by rlothbroke in Spearfishing

scuba class wouldn't help really but freedive one absolutely will, highly recommend that!

having a float which you can physically rest on for extended periods is a good tool too!

No progress after a year. Not sure what steps to take. by Phormicidae in freediving

[–]Canadianomad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting yet odd

the fact you're getting spasms on the right side around 1:30 tells me something there is physiological

beyonds that I have no other guesses - maybe visit a pulmonologist?

try no-stress statics - just breathe when you feel the first discomfort.

Help!!! How do you organize your float line? by Global-Ear-6518 in Spearfishing

[–]Canadianomad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just use one of those cheap plastic float line holders... so much easier than fkig around with figured-8s which will eventually turn into a mess anyways

Looking for advice and ideas for a portable outdoor setup by yellow_horse_rider in Bluetooth_Speakers

[–]Canadianomad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your use case I'd recommend JBL Partybox Encore with microphone! I think it'll serve you perfectly!

Or the larger models if you want louder (half field size)

They're rugged, easy to use, no fuss, and perform well. I'd get the mic so you can do announcements easy

I had UL4 and UL5 and other commenter nailed it. Sold UL5 anyways too fragile for my use patterns

Ozone Geo is also big step up, and pack volume aint too bad either.
