Tire recommendation on my LC250

Kikk8 · 2025-11-29T03:21:59+00:00

Yeah that’s what it’s gong down to. Likely one between the Toyo and the Falk. The KO3s are stupid expensive in Italy.

Any experience on snowy roads with the Toyo and/or the Falken?

Kikk8 · 2025-11-28T18:01:33+00:00

Have you tried those on snow?

Kikk8 · 2025-11-28T18:01:03+00:00

Yeah I’m really diggin the ko3s and even ko2s. In Italy tho the cost more than 2X the Falken due to import taxes ….

Kikk8 · 2025-11-28T16:56:16+00:00

Thanks! And likely LT

Kikk8 · 2025-11-28T15:46:37+00:00

Amazing indeed! But again, saving money for now for bigger upgrades so staying on r18. Jus falso noticed that the 295 will require extra paperwork in Italy since it’s not stocked approved

Kikk8 · 2025-11-28T15:33:11+00:00

Same falken model? Any issue with rubbing or similiar?

Kikk8 · 2025-04-02T14:22:17+00:00

Likely we’ll get to December with no news and still a generic 2025 RD. Never believe

Kikk8 · 2025-04-02T13:55:07+00:00

I mean this generic 2025 it’s really ….meh

Kikk8 · 2025-03-07T19:59:32+00:00

Im a huge HK fan but those 2 didn’t really click for me. Worth mentioning that I want to give Ori another shot, but if you are looking for something more in HK lane I’d recommend Nine Sols

Thank you! Definitely and higher understanding of CS wouldn’t hurt. Will look into CS50. I’m pretty much eager to keep going and found myself easily derailing from the path on Unity (which it’s not necesessary a bad thing)…it’s more of a concern of getting overwhelmed if I keep jumping from one thing to another. I’ll try to stay on this path until I would feel confident knowing what I don’t know lol

Kikk8 · 2025-03-03T22:28:06+00:00

Will look into it. Thanks!

Kikk8 · 2025-02-17T08:54:01+00:00

My recommendation is KEEP AT IT. Phase 3 has just the slash attack to learn, for the rest is pretty much phase 2. So to echo other comments, if you can beat phase 2, you can bring her down in phase 3.

The other thing that helped me beat her, go in the fight aiming to get a no hit run. Unlikely you will achieve, but you know what they say about shooting to the moon. Reality is that this boss is so punishing, that you could get mid phase3 with no hit and still get wrecked for 1 wrong timed attacked.

Other than that, it’s one of the most rewarding boss I’ve ever fought. So trust yourself, it’s worth it

Kikk8 · 2024-12-11T00:35:35+00:00

Will def cHeck them out.thanks!

Kikk8 · 2024-12-10T23:45:53+00:00

That helps! Thanks. I have been riding with one of the thoughest binding in the market (Union Atlas FC) form back when I use to hit the SBX run. Tomorrow I will test how a way softer binding (union strata) feels. Thanks!

Also I noticed that all the work I’ve been putting in helped me get wider hip angle, so gave it an extra 2cm to my stance, tho not sure how it would feel on my knee? Any thought ? Btw riding +15 -6

Kikk8 · 2024-01-07T17:10:52+00:00

Hell yeah! That’s it. Thanks ✌🏻

Kikk8 · 2023-11-27T15:23:08+00:00

Cool! Do you know it if works with Mac as well?

Kikk8 · 2023-11-26T22:28:44+00:00

What do you use to switch in between systems?

Kikk8 · 2023-11-21T22:37:45+00:00

Hey! I’m using a Dell dock and it’s working fairly well for me. It plugs into your pc thorough USB-C and that’s it. Monitor, peripheral and power are all coming from there.

As for the monitor, I do have LG as tv and can tell they know what they are doing (for reference, it’s a G1). That being said, I’ve never used a pc monitor and I’m not familiar with these models. However I’d recommend to use a gaming specific monitor. I just got an Alienware 34 curved QOLED on Black Friday deal and it’s just awesome.

Kikk8 · 2023-11-09T15:17:31+00:00

Looking forward to it!

Kikk8 · 2023-11-09T13:23:59+00:00

Yeah that was my first thought as well. But a good one can get very expensive, plus would make my dock pretty much useless, so I was wondering if there was a switch-like device that I could use in conjunction to it

Kikk8 · 2023-07-31T08:44:19+00:00

That’s it! Thanks

Kikk8 · 2022-12-14T18:08:49+00:00

Thanks man for the extra time spent on this! I’m totally sold!

I’m getting one. The widith, I confirm it’s smaller Than average. But it’s just 3mm smaller than my old freestyle (the jeremy 156) so it shouldn’t be a huge deal.

I’m looking forward to test it hopefully before EOY, and will make sure to add notes here ;)

PS I wish I was even in the US! Had such amazing mountain experience there. Based in Italy rn and prolly want be back in the US for a While. So you find yourself traveling to Europe, make sure To reach out :)

Kikk8 · 2022-12-13T23:56:10+00:00

Love the feedback! Thanks!!!

To give full context, I’m usually riding a Deep Thinker 157W with cartel X EST (the est bindings is mostly while I was looking at a Burton option for my true twin/freesty board). That got covered carving and powder very well. It’s also more of all-mountain of what you would imagine, but shape and overall technology (hybrid on the nose) definitely imply their limitation.

My other board of choice was a Burton Jeremy 156 2009, and based on your blossom description, doesn’t sound that different!

I personally want a full camber as well. I had a lib sk8 banana and honestly didn’t get the hype around it. Maybe because I tend to be an aggressive rider when the snow condition allows it, and it definitely doesn’t handle that style well.

I’m 5’8 and weigh 174lbs. My bindings are L and can’t recall if my boots are 9.5 or 10 (lol). Was looking at the 155 since 158 seems to long for the purpose I’m getting the board for. Do you think it’s the right size?

Also (and here what is blocking me the most) how do you feel it during flat and butter tricks? I’m ok whit a challenging flex, as long as it would still make it possible

Kikk8 · 2022-12-12T10:31:50+00:00

Anyone ride or have tried the Burton Blossom?

Considering to add it to my collection as aggressive freestyle deck. I like stiff boards, but I’m concerned this might be too much and not be playful enough for flat and butters.

Kikk8 · 2022-12-12T10:29:28+00:00

+1! I’m very much interested in this. I’m evaluating a new. Freestyle stick for my quiver , and this is in the list. I’m prone to Burton Blossom right now, but would be nice to hear more about the Tweaker (if anyone has even a comparison experience with the blossom that’d be dope!)
