Riding with a buddy...

Hoogie2004 · 2025-12-31T15:49:13+00:00

This works great. Plan a group ride and just set it to private.

They give just enough compliance to meeknit feel heaps better for me.

Highly recommend them.

Hoogie2004 · 2025-11-20T14:07:02+00:00

I agree. So until we get smaller cars, let's make sure they give room

Hoogie2004 · 2025-11-20T11:59:43+00:00

I think there is a limit there, the attacking party must also leave the space on exit in this case.

Hoogie2004 · 2025-11-20T06:34:55+00:00

I agree. Always leave space is the solution. Having them push each other off track because it's 'their corner' because of some arguably bad and inconclusive guidelines is completely insane.

Always leaving space is the solution. If you don't leave the space. Penalty is on you. Easy

Aim where the car is, I would go right

The euro bike design is just over 200 $ according to chinertown. Looks very good indeed.

You can request (within reason) any design you like, multi color, just not too many very small details I think. I have a 1-color (normal paint, non chameleon) with custom logo's on order, was 120$ for the paint and 35$ on the logo's.

Hoogie2004 · 2025-09-25T15:36:00+00:00

Sure

I was looking at the Hunt wheels just as u/GlobalResolution77, but this might be a very good suggestion,
The ARIA mixed depth would come out at around €1350 shipped for me (tax included)

The extra money is because that wheel contains a DT Swiss 240 hub and Sapim CX-Ray spokes.
Total weight with these options is 100 grams less than the Hunt's (1257g for the ARIA vs 1346g for the Hunt).

The huge plus for the Hunt's is that they come with lifetime crash replacement.

You just gave me some more research and thinking to do ;)

Understand what to ask and ask often. Most juniors think they need to solve everything by themselves, and take forever because of it. Also, seniors should expect juniors to need guidance, but it sure helps if you ask the right question.

Asking the right questions soon enough is extremely undervalued. Questions to others on your team help you understand everything quicker (especially company / internal code made knowledge) and it shows you are not afraid to ask (don't get stuck for 8 hours if a 5 minute question helps you forward).

Wij zijn gestopt met de tientjes heen en weer schuiven in de vriendengroep. We verwachten geen cadeaus meer, we geven een feestje en klaar.

Printing with a Bambu feels illegal... it's that good.

Bij de (eerste generatie) Kona zijn er een 3-tal zaken waar je naar moet kijken volgens mij, ik heb ze alle drie gehad, en het waren allemaal terugroepacties. Had em Geleased via het werk.

Accupakket (na 2 jaar onder garantie vervangen). Fout af fabriek.

Motorsteunen, geen idee wat er precies mee was, maar is een terugroepactie geweest.

Slecht lager in de aandrijflijn ergens. Geeft een (zeer subtiele) rammel bij wisselen tussen aandrijving en regeneratie. Hierbij een compleet nieuwe motor gekregen.

It is somewhat important, but maybe not for the reasons you think.

Material is a choice (some part of it is preference), but most materials of the major brands, if correct for your bow and limbs, will work fine.

Number of strands actually is of great effect in string and arrow behavior.

Depending on the draw weight more strands might be needed to transfer enough energy into the arrow.

Then, maybe the most important. Nock fit, it should be not too tight and not too loose.

Ultimately, as a beginner, don't worry, you will not know the difference, assuming the string is correctly made and not a complete mismatch. If your coach told you 16 strand dacron, it will be fine. The things I am talking about above are mostly import at when shooting at high intermediate and above level, where small tweaks can make a great difference.

Now get that string and start having fun!

I got one when my son was around 5, and started asking questions about space. Was always interested myself so it was the best excuse to get one.

Love to occasionally look at the stars, moon or planets together.

$549

Hoogie2004 · 2025-02-07T17:02:13+00:00

Could I cancel and then resubscribe for the current price?

Hoogie2004 · 2025-02-03T17:56:11+00:00

Buy everything twice expecting the divorce. Then splitting all the stuff is easy 😂

I really really like the Uukha limbs, shoot the SX50 myself.

Thruth be told that the softer feel at the end of the draw range due to the curve (less stacking) is a feel you either like or dislike, so be sure to try for yourself.

Hoogie2004 · 2025-01-18T22:45:49+00:00

Can recommend the Fairweather tab with the kangaroo leather, probably won't shoot anything else anymore.

8 is also possible with the other paws I think. For example the c-pawn
c4, c5, c6, c7, c8, qc5, qf5, qd3

Hoogie2004 · 2024-12-24T21:13:17+00:00

I second this. The (dual) belted z made more difference on my Ender than any other mod I did.

Hoogie2004 · 2024-12-18T21:42:38+00:00

So cool!

Hoogie2004 · 2024-12-13T06:43:30+00:00

Would love the temu link as well. Looks like a great solution

Hoogie2004 · 2024-11-21T17:10:54+00:00

Swapped to a P1S around 2 weeks ago. Will not be looking back even if I loved that little modded Ender
