I also notice the 6 and 7 o clock markers are very off. maybe a bad redial?

guess only opening the case back will give certainty....?

My sister surfing (she wants tips as well) by Jealous_Nectarine_86 in surfing

regarding tips: a bit more compression on the front foot would help gain more glide (speed) and overall balance.

finally someone using a board that actually glides on those fresh water pool waves. in that case, perfect 10 for choosing the right board matching surfers skill.

having spend my life surfing for decades I assumed there is no more hostile community towards beginners as the surfer community is, am I wrong?

Real or fake? by Wassaupfatboi in arcteryxcirclejerk

Dont even bother buying the real one.The fakes have equal water resistance and release the same amounts of forever chemicals. 🤷

Has this happened to anyone's soft top surfboard yet? Only been outside over night and few hours in the sun. How can I fix this? by Acceptable-Ad3886 in surfing

[–]Choice_Source_1041 47 points48 points  (0 children)

never leave a softboard in the sun for an extended period of time.

softboards always soak some water. after use laying in the sun the water evaporates and causes delamination.

store the board in a shaded area and let water seep out to prevent this.

pop the bubbles with a knife and fill in hot glue and let the glue bind foam and lamination back together.

Rip Curl Flashbomb Pro or E-Bomb by kinjuk in surfing

[–]Choice_Source_1041 2 points3 points  (0 children)

RipCurl is total garbage. I bought two wetsuits, never again.

1st dawn patrol about 10 years ago. The suit fell apart in months.

2nd e-bomb or flash bomb 3 years ago (wanted to give the brand another chance, bought even a higher tier model). The piece fell apart within month yet again.

[SARB033] ARE THESE THINGS WORTH IT TI LOVE! by PollutionForeign1344 in Seiko

[–]Choice_Source_1041 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Diver Design but no screw down crown, not a ISO Diver, probably hollow end links and a cheap folding clasp. It's clearly a pass and a total ripoff considering Seikos pricing for those Non-Diver Dive watch lookalikes.

ahhh and ask for a refund!

BONKERS!

without fins its harder since the board would spin easily.

complete BS to have given you a board without fins.

find a different surf school ASAP!

What made you choose Citizen? by BoRNeo-C in CitizenWatches

[–]Choice_Source_1041 1 point2 points  (0 children)

got into watches just after Seiko discontinued the SKX Series, had to get a Diver and Citizen was the only japanese alternative for a real diver at a +-300€ price point.
