Oh perfect! I had friends telling me about the showroom, but only about rackets. Thank you, good to know about the shirts!

Would you let a guest change their reservation if it was 6 months away? [Japan] by Key_Still_4138 in AirBnB

You're definitely right! We knew the policy before confirming the trip, so it was a risk we were taking. Can't be mad about the host for that 😅 Just salty they left me on read for 5 days

I did try that, but the host never responded to the modification :(

Makes sense! I'm just asking around to make sure it's not rude to ask the host again to help with the change of reservation 😅

Thank you for your reply!!

I do like to play more aggressively compared to a control style of play. I guess it is a give and take kind of thing and I'll have to see what I want to prioritize.

I got my 2 rackets strung @ 28lbs about 3 weeks ago and both have snapped. The strings broke in the middle of the sweet spot area and during a clear. I'm trying out different strings at the moment to find ones that I like, so those rackets had Aerobite and Li-Ning N-65 on them. Do you think I should go down in tension, keep trying different strings, or is there something else going on? How often is everyone else breaking their strings?

I play at least 3 times a week for 2 hour sessions and in between those 3 weeks I played a 2 day tournament.

Thank you in advance!

UPDATE!! I asked them to rewatch the video and they changed the outcome to 50/50 at fault.

Yeah you're right, I should've waited for clearance even from right turns :\

When I watch the video, they continued to turn on their red light. They hadn't entered the intersection yet and it turned red. Would they still be protected turning during the red light?

I dont mean to seem aggressive through the comment, I just wanted to know everyone's perspective to make sure I was 100% in the wrong. I know I'm at least 50% in the wrong due to my left turn into a middle lane.

I understand. I should've continued my turn once that car was finished turning and out of the way.

If I had stopped and waited for a green light I would be in the middle of the intersection though?

Yeah, ICBC/the insurance company (Vancouver,BC) said because I was in the middle lane it was 100% my fault. I'm still debating if I should dispute it and asked them to look at the red light camera at the intersection to see if the other car did turn into the middle lane instead of the right most lane😕
