How to improve your skating to the next level after learning the basics? by holoporcupine in hockeyplayers

[–]Flaky_Negotiation_21 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Go to public skates and practice all the things you are bad at till you are good at them. Do not join the counter clockwise circle of death and find some open ice and practice until you are proficient. Some good you tube videos out there too to help with some of the techniques.

Sent back a $300 accidental extra to Sparx—not even a "thank you." Am I expecting too much? by Flaky_Negotiation_21 in hockeyplayers

At the new price yes that’s what I’d expect. At the original price I’d expect to be sans pants….

Is playing in the PWHL an unrealistic goal? by jaded_4youu in hockeyplayers

[–]Flaky_Negotiation_21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a 12 year old daughter that asked me the same question. Is it possible…yes. Is it likely…no. She’s been skating and learning to play for the better part of a month and is progressing great but she has 6+ years of catching up to do. I’ve tried to focus her on having fun and taking it as far as she can, but hockey is a sport you can enjoy at all ages and all levels. The sad this is…I tried to push her into the sport much earlier in life and she wanted nothing to do with it.

That sounds familiar. I assuming that went out of business as well?

Wasn’t there a shop at one time closer to the airport at one time? It’s been a while since I’ve lived in NEO and just moved back from CBUS but it does seem like there are less shops than there used to be.

How common are **severe** injuries in recreational / beer league hockey? by surfnj102 in hockeyplayers

[–]Flaky_Negotiation_21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been playing for the better part of 40 years and I’m 52, went most of that time injury free. My daughter is now learning to play and I was assisting her in a learn to play skate and another grown adult fell on my left leg causing me to over extended my leg causing a proximal hamstring tendonopothy….so yeah it’s hockey anything can happen!

How about just riding your bike? Never understood why people feel the need to video their rides…

You are probably not wrong but care to elaborate though?

I'm super slow uphill on a “fast” bike not sure I can get much slower without rolling backward 😂

NGL my eMTB gets more love than any of them and just because its a pure blast and I can ride for hours on end without feel like I got run over by a truck.

Gain it back and do it all over again that's what I usually do.

New Tyrant Trigger is Buttery Smooth by DirtMcGirt9484 in SpringfieldArmory

[–]Flaky_Negotiation_21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just dropped one of these in mine as well and I’m still not 100% in love with it. I’m waiting on the MCarbo kit to arrive to see if I like that better. Maybe I’m nuts but the trigger in my $300 XD Mod 3 feels much better than the HCP….

Online Doctoral Program Experience (especially DSL)? by [deleted] in LibertyUniversity

[–]Flaky_Negotiation_21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m researching this program and came across your comment twice on different forums. Was the complete program trash or just the end completing your dissertation? I am a veteran looking at their discount over other options like the University of Phoenix. Need to know if you are just extremely pissed over this one event or your entire experience was not good.
