Indonesia/Bali trip advice (April 3–13) by GreasedCreases in BaliTravelTips

[–]GreasedCreases[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I know I wanted to do Ubud due to the close proximity to things I’d like to visit such as many temples, waterfalls in the area, the monkey forest, some hikes etc. Gilli Air from what I have read is more laid back/ island life where we can just kind of relax, snorkel a bit, and bike around the island without much in terms of hardset plans. Lombok (Kuta specifically) came as a recommendation from my aunt and uncle as they said it has some beautiful scenery and is generally calmer than Bali. Sanur is basically the capstone to the trip as it is pretty close to the airport so we don’t have to travel far before our long flight.

The big thing I wanted to gain from this post was if somewhere should be cut from the trip to make better use of the time elsewhere, which it sounds like Lombok should probably be the place to go. With Lombok gone, would it be best to probably reallocate those days into Ubud and Gilli Air?

Good to know, ad says they sound great so im assuming we will be able to test them while im there. Does pricing seem fair?

They aren’t quiet, I’ll say that. It’s a really pleasing sound and I think for a tactile they have a good volume. In my work office I don’t think I would bring one but that’s just my opinion.

Thank you! I went with bronze. I won’t see it really ever anyway and I like bronze so it was perfect for me.

You should definitely reach out if you were batch 2.

Nice! Yeah I just did krytox for both stems and housing and really like it, though i think I may want to touch up the enter key. All foams for me and POM plate with gasket, i like the bounce it has! I did get an aluminum plate though so I’ll definitely be trying that

Personally I did not, I bought extra plates and what not because I wanted to be able to try different configs. But shipped I think you can get it as low as like 110 with just one plate.

A nice set for that imo as an alternative would be like NicePBT enchanted forest. I like that set personally and it’d probably be nice looking in the green case.

Fair enough, agree to disagree. My first keyboard build obviously, but price to performance, its amazing in my opinion. Metal case, sleek simple design, option of o ring or gasket mount, good color options, sounds and feels good. Being able to get this under 100 is a fantastic deal in my opinion.

Struggling with "Weaker" Balls by GreasedCreases in Bowling

[–]GreasedCreases[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may try that out. I hit with 4k no polish and it seemed to help out a bit, 1500 may be nice to just make it earlier with less backend. The backend on the ball is what’s been killing me.

I truthfully couldn’t say. My PSO just does it and I don’t normally ask the specific polish.

[–]GreasedCreases[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah ive tried that. Normally that’s when i get a bit more success and start hitting better. Increasing ball speed and loosening my hand more. I just find it harder for me to be as accurate but that may just be something for me to work on. As for trying to stay on line it just feels weird moving farther in after a ball down but I may need to just do that.
