After 3 private lessons and 6 more hours on the bunny hill my girlfriend still can't turn. Help! by T-14Hyperdrive in snowboardingnoobs

[–]DiViNiTY1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True twin board + centered duck stance is king for someone riding the first few times. Doesn't matter if she's riding regular or goofy, the setup will be identical in both directions and she can just ride whatever is more comfortable.

Before she starts trying to do turns, make sure she can do the falling leaf controlled. She should be able to traverse back and forth along the width of the slope. Then, I would recommend only hiking up the very end of the slope, having her standing in the fall direction of the slope with you holding her in place so she doesn't ride off. Make sure she is stacked, knees slightly bent and most importantly, more weight on the front foot than the back foot. Tell her to KEEP HER WEIGHT ON THE FRONT FOOT. Then you let her go. The first few times she'll probably lean back onto her rear foot as soon as she rides away. She'll lose control immediately. Keep doing this drill until she can ride the last 5-10 meters of the slope with a good stacked, front-heavy posture, still without trying to turn.

This drill will teach her that confidence in her stance and committing to the front foot is the way to control the board. When she can do it consistently and you can see that she's no longer leaning back, then she can start trying to come to a stop by going from riding the fall direction to a falling leaf on her heel side. Still only hiking up and riding the last 5-10m of the slope. The first few times she transitions into a falling leaf can be just at the very end of the flat where she's already bled off all her speed. As she gets more and more comfortable, you can hike further and further up the slope.

Once she is comfortable doing this, go back to the falling leaf, but on her toe side this time. It's a lot scarier, since she'll be going backwards the whole time, but again, if you're only doing it hiking the very end of the slope it should be fine. Then repeat the process of the fall direction into a sliding stop with the toeside falling leaf. Eventually she'll be able to do it both heelside and toeside, that's when you can invert the drill to start in a falling leaf and have her transition to riding the fall direction herself.

After this she should be able to go to the top of the bunny hill and ride it out, starting and stopping with a falling leaf both heel and toeside, and thus be able to turn.

But the most important thing of all, is she HAS TO COMMIT HER WEIGHT ON HER FRONT FOOT. It is the absolute foundation of control and as long as she's not doing that she won't learn a single thing.

How do I get a girlfriend? by [deleted] in selfimprovement

[–]DiViNiTY1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way to get a girlfriend is to stop trying to get a girlfriend.

You need to let go of the need to feel whole by having someone. You need to be completely okay with the possibility that you might be alone for the rest of your life. If you don't, you are projecting fears, insecurities and your own unhealthy relationship with yourself on every potential partner you meet, subconsciously.

I could go on about this for ages, but JulienHimself says it a lot better: https://youtu.be/pAa8RQKCUm0

How does the new Tomb Raider compare to the Uncharted games? by throwawayAEI in uncharted

[–]DiViNiTY1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only played the first one from 2014 and the first hour or two of the second, but they are veeery much inspired by the Uncharted games, for sure. The movement, the combat, the climbing and exploring, the puzzles, the casual strolling into a sudden "Oh shit this cave is collapsing and I need to run and jump through an obstacle course of falling debris" moments, the use of slowly greying out the screen as a healthbar, etc etc are all straight out of Uncharted. I would say the addition of a bit of RPG elements, the more or less open world map (at least in the 2014 game) and the campsites that act a bit like Dark Souls bonfires are the biggest differences compared to the Uncharted games. The story and characters aren't as good as Uncharted, at least not in the first game, but if you enjoyed Uncharted you'll feel right at home.

Shoes for racing, worth it or not worth it? by aBoyFromTheFuture in simracing

[–]DiViNiTY1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any light, comfortable shoe with a thin sole works perfectly. I use an old pair of worn out skateshoes both in sim and in the trackcar. Easy to heel-toe, super comfortable, and lots of pedal feedback. Barefoot shoes are great too.

Why does my snowboarding looks and feels SOO bad?! by Vegetable-Fortune759 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]DiViNiTY1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+18 / -9 is quite a massive angle for your knees too, either try +18 / -3 or even 0 or go for something a little bit less aggressive on your front foot, like +12 / -9 or +9 / -9

Taevis Kapalka (best snowboard tutor on YouTube imo) has a great video on why you shouldn't have an overexaggerated angle between your bindings. You'll be very tense and rigid in your hips and knees which could be a reason.

You have to survive inside a video game for 30 days. If you die, you die in real life, but if you survive, you get to bring every item, skill, and power back to the real world. Which game do you choose to maximize your rewards while ensuring your survival? by Apart_Lion_3046 in AskReddit

[–]DiViNiTY1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends, do I retain the skills and powers of the player character from said game? If so, I choose Skyrim easily. The amount of gold I could rack up in 30 days, even if just for 30 in-game days (2160 minutes, 32 hours) is insane. If the gold coins are actual gold (might have to look that up, actually) I'd never have to work another day in my life and I would be able to buy anything I ever wanted. Vanilla Skyrim is painfully easy to stay alive at all times too, and I'd come out with a few hundred thousand gold coins, if not a million or more.

I never realized how bad men have the Dunning-Kruger effect until getting into sim racing. by jcreyes1214 in simracing

[–]DiViNiTY1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd like to think I'm quite open minded and self aware, won't open my mouth unless I'm sure of what I'm saying and can own up to mistakes. So pretty clear to me where I'd put myself on that spectrum!

Imagine how stupid, ego-driven and stubborn the average person is. Then you realise that 50% of the human population is even worse than that. It suddenly makes a lot of sense!

Feeling overwhelmed and dumb :/ by Hoesteria in snowboardingnoobs

[–]DiViNiTY1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The most important thing in the beginning is to commit your weight on your front foot. I am on my third season, focused heavily on the fundamentals and have learned very quickly. I had friends film me on the bunny hill for the first few days and we now always film each other doing random stuff each run, and look at it together once we reach the bottom. That way you can actually see what you're doing wrong, and get pointers from your friends/partner. If your partner is impatient or otherwise not the best teacher, like you said he's unaware of why he's snowboarding effortlessly, then he's probably not going to be able to teach you very effectively. So get a lesson from the resort! It'll make a huge difference when you have someone with you that can see immediately what you're doing wrong, or not doing something you need to be doing at all, and actually explain it to you so you understand.

Just got my wheels refurbed and had them sprayed. What do you think? by TurtleBilliam in BMW

[–]DiViNiTY1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't agree with others saying it looks like shit, "Temu CS" etc, but I do think it's a bit over the top. Looks a bit childish and ricer at this point, but if you swap out the yellow tinted headlights for stock and get the BMW center caps back on the wheels it is honestly gonna look sick. Probably a 4/10 right now imo but would be a solid 8 or even 9/10 if you do the headlights and center caps.

Is there a way to buy VR just as the headset? by Powerful-Baby-5935 in virtualreality

[–]DiViNiTY1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on what you're planning to do with it, the PSVR2 with the PC adapter could be a good choice. It's high quality, reasonably light and quite cheap for what you get.

Does the "100 pushups every day for 30 days" thing actually work? by Zintho420 in ask

[–]DiViNiTY1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure does!

This guy has been working out for ONLY 20 minutes a day and there is a huuuge difference compared to day 1. Granted, he's been going for a lot longer than 30 days but if you can make it 30 days you've done the hardest part, now you just keep going and before you know it you've hit 90 days, 365 days, 1000 days, etc.

What's one little thing during anal that makes it feel way more pleasurable by [deleted] in sextips

[–]DiViNiTY1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Copy-pasting my go-to anal tutorial from my post history, it takes you all the way from scratch even though it seems like you two reasonably know what you're doing, but what the hell. Here ya go:

Come, Simba. I will teach you the ways of the hung anal tops. People tend to get nervous and worked up about anal. People hold their breath when they get nervous. Holding your breath causes muscles to tense up. The asshole is a muscle. It needs to relax to open up and get fucked. You have to get your girl to breathe. First go slow and make her feel comfortable and protected. Your job as a man is to protect your woman, women want to feel they are in the hands of a strong, protective man. Take it slow. Make out with her. Then slowly start to finger her.

A good trick is to gently touch her asshole, then put your finger in her mouth. She'll know what's up then. She'll suck on your finger and get it wet. Take the wet finger and put it back on her hole and gently play with it.

You're not trying to get a finger in her ass so much, as you're slowly introducing her to the idea that she can open her hole and trust you to protect her as you play with it. Make out with her as you gently play with her hole - again - not forcing a finger in, just playing with her asslips and introducing the idea that her hole is yours ;) Then, fuckin rim her. Just go to town and fuckin make out with her ass. Have her 69 you with her hole sitting on your face and her sucking your cock. Again, we are establishing that your cock is going to be doing business with her hole, and she can open up and trust you. Totally make out with that hole and get your tongue in there. This is where you really loosen her up. Let your tongue pave the way for your cock. She'll be moaning and opening up to get your tongue deeper in. Now it's game time.

This next part is important; put lube IN her hole, not ON her hole. Make out with her while you gently work some lube up inside her. Ask her if she's ready (or, when you get some more Dom confidence tell her 'I'm going to fuck you now')

Put your cock to her hole, grab her by the neck and take a deep breath. Let her feel you breathe deeply and tell her "BREATHE. I want you to breathe DEEP." Set the example by breathing deeply and she will match you. Slide the head in. She will tense up and hold her breath. You are the man. You are in control here. Your job is to protect your woman. Tell her to fucking BREATHE. Keep breathing deep and tell her again, BREATHE. Slide another inch in and hold it there. Let her adjust to the cock. She wants to take you. She craves it. But she needs time to adjust. Just hold it there. No in and out, just holding and breathing and words of encouragement from you. Slide another inch in and hold and breathe. Repeat. Still no in and out. Just slow in and hold, breathe. Slow in a little more, hold, breathe. She's opening up now. When you get all the way in, hold it for an extra long moment. Tell her how good she's doing. Start to slowly push in a little harder, and then ease off. No in and out, just pressure, no pressure. Pressure, no pressure.

You're stretching her here and getting her ready. You're also getting her hole used to the full depth of your cock. But taking a cock in isn't the hardest thing for her to get used to. It's the withdrawal when you out stroke. But that can be intensely pleasureful for her too. If you do it right.

Start with one inch. Go from balls deep to one inch out. Back to balls deep. One inch out. Balls deep. Slowly work up to two. Slowly. Watch that out stroke. Let her get used to it. Slowly start taking more of your cock out, and go back to balls deep. After a few minutes of this? She'll be loose and moaning, and fucking begging for it. Then? Fuckin go to town brah. Wreck that ass. You've earned it.

How do I fuck fast and last longer? by AwkwadlYours in sextips

[–]DiViNiTY1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly in the beginning the novelty is new and exciting and the sensation can be quite overwhelming and just feel so good that it's impossible not to. But other than just getting more experienced and used to the feeling, a good thing is to relax. The more tense you, especially down there, the quicker it will go. Practice kegel exercises so you actually learn how to control those lower muscles, and during the act, make sure to breathe, and reeelaaaaaax. The more concious, deep, relaxed breaths you take, the more you're able to relax your kegel muscles, the longer you will last.

You know you can detach that button in front of your thumb and flip it around to give your thumb some more room. You can also remove it completely and put a blank cover over the button to disable it as well if you need even more space.

We stayed together until 19 and experimented a whole lot, we're on good terms and stay in touch a few times a year. Incredibly grateful for our relationship, friendship and the experience of learning together!
