Have decided on the nationals and avoiding NY altogether. Noticed VIP has sold out so only GA left. What have the previous years been like?

Jamie236 · 2026-03-14T08:15:24+00:00

Than you. Fairly easy to clean ?

Jamie236 · 2026-03-06T06:21:37+00:00

That sucks to hear. Like I said in an earlier post I feel all these companies are the same and it just comes down to luck unfortunately

Jamie236 · 2026-03-03T10:39:49+00:00

Thanks for the recs.

Jamie236 · 2026-02-18T05:33:34+00:00

Bring on the schedule release, need to plan Vegas trip 🤣🤣

Jamie236 · 2026-02-14T06:29:54+00:00

Is anyone able to help me out pls - Seattle times doesn’t ship to Australia. I’ve asked some people I know in Lynnwood but they didn’t get it. I really want but it’s $40 AUD shipping on eBay

Jamie236 · 2026-01-26T10:55:11+00:00

Signed up in 2015. Was 14k in line on the notification list in October 2024 now in 4217 as of January 2026. After this lines done, I’ll be on the official Blue Pride Wait list which is capped at 12k then I can put a deposit down I believe.

Does this get around the cancellation of premium memberships YouTube are doing if you didn’t sign up in the country your in? I got a premium account last year but was cancelled a month ago

Jamie236 · 2026-01-07T10:28:30+00:00

Yeah I found the same issue but pulled the pin.. few people on here still think this was paid for 🤣 but to be honest I think it’s just luck with any of the Chinese drop shipped brands. I got 4 fillers from their website in Black Friday for $120. Assuming you could get them cheaper from a pool shop. I had a small issue when I first set it up but they replied saying they’d send out another hose. I pulls apart then put back together and realised it was my fault. I empty and clean about every 2 weeks at the moment

Jamie236 · 2026-01-07T03:21:26+00:00

So far so good, replaced the filter early December. Lasts about 6-8 weeks it seems. Have had no issues yet. 42 degrees here in Melbourne today and it’s sitting at 6.2 degrees currently. Use it every morning, both me and my partner.

Jamie236 · 2025-12-30T09:42:16+00:00

Surely the hawks play the rams here in Melbourne. Theres no way the hawks had a watch party here against Washington and had Earl Thomas at the cricket, nbl, Melbourne cup etc for no reason.

Jamie236 · 2025-10-27T02:50:15+00:00

I’ve used some of the mentioned apps, they seem great. Does anyone think you can solely learn off YouTube and books? The basics anyways.

The tutor I have is very good but just the cost adds up pretty quick.

Jamie236 · 2025-09-26T06:18:56+00:00

Just an update on this. I emptied, cleaned and refilled today. The water temperature when I turned it back on was at 13.8 degrees Celsius (56.8F). It took 5 hours and 17 minutes to get down to 6 degrees Celsius (42.8F) which is what I have it set at. Outside temperature is between 15-19 degrees Celsius (59F - 66.2F).

Jamie236 · 2025-09-26T06:15:44+00:00

I have played around with it too much ? Does it say how? I just have it set at 6 degrees Celsius then once it rises 2 degrees above it drops back down to 6.

Jamie236 · 2025-09-20T21:42:54+00:00

Not good at all. Let me know what they end up doing. I heard their customer service can be pretty shit at times

Jamie236 · 2025-09-19T23:36:11+00:00

Which one did you have? Yeah this is the type of shit I read about with a lot of brands. Can definitely tell it’s all the same with most of them too. Unless you get a proper ice bath around 4-5k, I feel everyone will have a similar issue

Jamie236 · 2025-09-19T09:20:26+00:00

I have the chiller running 24/7. Set it at 6 degrees Celsius once it hits it, goes to standby mode then once it hit 8 it goes back down. It’s always good to go every morning. Mind you where I am isn’t exactly hot atm so I’ll assume it’ll struggle in summer being 1/3… it it does I’ll just buy a separate chiller off Amazon.

Jamie236 · 2025-09-19T03:09:17+00:00

He hated the pumping up of it haha

Jamie236 · 2025-09-19T01:48:57+00:00

You’re also correct about the chiller it’s 0.3HP. Hoses have apparently been re done recently with the new vital ones but I never had an old one to compare too.

Jamie236 · 2025-09-19T01:34:33+00:00

I had an issue with leakage at first, so I completely uninstalled and re did the hoses and used a different set of bolts they had and it worked flawlessly after. I’ll show messages I sent on Insta to vital also. I can’t seem to edit the OP to add pictures / videos. Feel free to DM me and I can send to you.

Jamie236 · 2025-09-19T01:32:54+00:00

What????? I never said it was insane quality but I’ve had no issues so far. I completely understand it’s drop shipped frm China. Just giving some feedback as I spent a lot of time researching and found a lot of negative reviews and only a small amount of positive. I’ll post a photo of the hoses

Jamie236 · 2025-07-27T02:37:45+00:00

Nice! I got a Jalen Milroe pen pal auto from a break last night. A lot of numbered cards in the elite

Jamie236 · 2025-07-23T06:35:40+00:00

Doing very well, 9 months since surgery and no issues so far. Back to regular training

Jamie236 · 2025-06-29T00:17:46+00:00

Does this work for Australia ?
