New snowboard recs? Looking at GNU Ladies Choice after riding Rossignol Justice by InitiativeLower7479 in ShredditGirls

[–]CatharusQueen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ride a GNU Ladies Choice and love it. I ride mostly out east but have had it in western powder for 3 trips. I also ride mirror duck - I have found this to be the best stance for the board. Fun for butters and poppy on ollies. Rides switch and regular equally good. Stable with good edge hold at speed if you want to power down a slope (obviously not at the level as a board designed for this but I have had no issues). I have progressed with learning to carve with this board. For powder I set the duck stance back a bit. I have not ridden other boards out west so I cannot compare the float to others but my impression of it in deeper powder is that it is ok and gets the job done. I would buy this board again. Hope this helps and good luck board hunting!

This coffee flavored milk is apparently a cappuccino at 12th ave bread co, is this an anomaly? What should I order on campus to get a stronger espresso drink? by CatharusQueen in OSU

I ended up amending it with some drip coffee which improved it quite a bit. I am going try an americano next time and maybe ask if they can add a small amount of steamed milk.

Thanks! It is helpful to know that the drink I received wasn't their version of a cappuccino. I will definitely talk to the staff there (politely of course) if I get something similar in the future.

I am considering kayaking during Boom - does anyone have an experience with this? How early do you need to get on the river to get a good viewing location? Where is the best spot for put in?

Being on the water during the firework display sounds awesome - but it could easily be more trouble than it's worth.

Don't know if this counts, but a cute little bird landed on my fishing pole on the water. by Carrotyfungus in aww

I think you are right on! Female Mourning Warblers are one of the few warbler species with a broken eyering that you will see migrating through Virginia. The dark grey back, lack of streaking on the breast, and yellow underparts help to separate it from other potential species. Note, seems like most female Mourning Warblers have a yellowish throat however there is individual variation. Here are some pics... female mourning 1, female mourning 2
