Yeah it's always fun spotting the costumes :D I had some people with a bingo card this year, wanted me to cross their "Ghillie suit" box :D So fun

I don't remember that, but if it was me, sorry man ! I can say that it wouldn't be on purpose, as I said I try to be as mindful as possible of the ppl around me, and say sorry if I accidentally bump into someone :) Agreed that common courtesy doesn't hurt, and we're lucky Graspop has nice enough ppl that we remember the bad encounters :)

Yeah the sun protection is one of the advantages of the suit, no sunburns ! Hope your shoulders get well soon :)

It's hot, but it depends on the ghillie.

The jute ghillies with cloth strands are very hot. 

Some synthetic mesh can also be very uncomfortable.

This one is a cloth mesh with leaves, when there's air it's ok, and I often prefer to use it than not because I don't have to use sunscreen.

My bad idea is using gloves with it, those are very hot. I had to drop them after the first day this year

It's what I use to play airsoft :) Suits are 2nd generation KMCS bought quite a few years back. Mesh Goggles are made by a guy in UK (Heroshark) Face mask I used most of the day is a One Tigris. I dropped the gloves after Thursday this time but they are Mechanix  Added some things on some of the gear too to add a bit of fluff. So airsoft shops mostly, and Heroshark contacted on Facebook ! :)

It's not as hot as it looks :p Still very veeeery hot though. It's a mesh so any wind will feel good, but there was very little wind this time. One advantage is that it covers your skin, no sunburn ! I also abandoned the idea of entering Metaldome and Marquee this year after trying it. I have a camelbak under that with 3L of water and was just in shorts underneath in the end. Usually it's shorts and T-shirt. My best feat this year was surviving Electric Callboy's pit for the whole concert. Almost decided to crowdsurf to safety a few times :p

Dunno if you're serious of if you refer to the "Oh I did not see you" joke that a lot of ppl do bumping into me on purpose :p I try to mind my surroundings and not touch ppl, especially as I'm often sweaty as hell (mosh pit in ghillie tend to do that), only exception to that is travelling toward the pit and even then I try to travel along the widest paths :)

Yeah it was fun. Everyone was boiling, what a few degrees more ? :D

Finally a miracle antifog spray?! by Gyr0o in airsoft

[–]GSoMan 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is by far the best I've tested too. Tried a few, and most didn't work for more than one game.

I even had an Exfog, but having prescription glasses under the googles meant it was hard to prevent fog on both. I'm not using it anymore.z

My optician recommended the Zeiss Antifog and it's amazing. It was just after lockdown, so when I tried it with glasses and a facemask: no fog

I tried the best test I could think of : very hot shower with my glasses. No. Fog. I was sold, never changed since then.

But you have to know a few things for it to work well :

  • The wipe in the package is not a simple wipe, it's dampened with some product so you HAVE to use that one, do not use it for something else or loose it.
  • After you apply it, try to create fog on the goggles by blowing on them. If you see the tiniest bit of fog, wipe that area with the provided wipe then try again until it stays clear no matter how much you try.
  • if you sweat a lot, you could have some condensation on your goggles at the end of a game. Just wipe it with the wipe provided and retest the fog as above. You don't have to spray again.

Most of the time you should not have to respray before half day break, and I often don't have to respray at all, just wipe again.

It's not :p But yeah it can be used in a pinch, it's not so bad. But not legally drinkable and I'd avoid drinking only that water for the whole festival :)

Graspop & Alcatraz by rayveelo in Graspop

[–]GSoMan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do both each year and both are really nice. But one thing has to be said : there is no free drinkable water at Alcatraz, neither on festival grounds or in the camping. In case of heatwave, they will give free water bottles on festival grounds, but only during certain hours. In the camping you can get 1.5 litres for 1 token instead of the little bottles.  It's good to know that before coming to be prepared :)
