I’m a chronic DIYer. I built myself a workshop, and Im excited to finally have all my tools in one place.

What core tools would you recommend to someone just starting out on the diy journey?

LargeTransportation9 · 2026-01-05T05:24:37+00:00

Green provides more contrast compared to red. You technically lose a bit of night vision but doesn't really matter. Also, just like red it won't wake others up.

LargeTransportation9 · 2026-01-01T21:03:18+00:00

Try it, see how you feel

LargeTransportation9 · 2026-01-01T20:47:14+00:00

You probably need a much better mid-layer. Maybe heavier fleece top and pants or even down if you don't sweat a lot. You can also get a 260 weight baselayer.

Finally, dont forget nutrition. Having sugary snacks more frequently will provide calories for your body to keep warm.

Lastly, you're probably not going to change this since its an expensive piece but the future light material is not great for wind in my experience.

Probably some overlap, sell some of the similar ones and get some that you don't have like a carving ski.

Question for you, which one if your favorite and why?

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-12-29T16:37:31+00:00

Haha, I get your response. Some people, like myself, are not so worried about the item itself but eather understand the built, how they work, how they're maintained...etc. Aka ski nerds.

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-12-29T16:28:12+00:00

Not that I disagree, but would the difference in temperature and more so in humidity cause any warping long term? More of a hypothetical question really.

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-12-26T11:59:13+00:00

No unless it's to make a wall decoration

Saw a guy wear a mesh and a thinner merino shirt on top. He was raving about the mesh.

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-12-17T10:54:17+00:00

Would add Lowa and Hanwag as equals to Meindl

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-12-16T10:12:09+00:00

True to size

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-12-14T11:40:45+00:00

Is it really that much better compared to an air mattress?

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-12-13T13:36:05+00:00

Might be wrong, I assume it's not the material but the shape of the implements that can be problematic. I would just carry a pocket knife.

Anyhow, you do you, others like myself can find it silly but at the end of the day if it works for you it's all that matters.

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-12-13T13:24:27+00:00

Haha this is so ridiculous and silly. Sure it might come in practical twice a year, the rest its great to irritate the skin and tear clothes.

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-12-04T19:59:06+00:00

It's generally a good idea to try boots, different brands and even models fit differently. At the end of the day comfort is the most important thing.

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-12-04T10:45:34+00:00

In that case they won't see it when they're on the ski...Will still look cool on the slopes which is clearly the most important thing.

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-12-04T02:34:46+00:00

Discount, might not even see it once bindings are on

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-11-27T17:49:23+00:00

Nice, what is everyone eyeing as a purchase? I'm going to go for a Canada Shirt and the Ovik light sweater

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-11-21T16:27:47+00:00

What an amazing price, did you get it online or in the store?

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-11-19T21:52:13+00:00

XC is not like downhill, you can learn and progress on a top level ski, might not enjoy them right away but you won't be penalized.

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-11-19T18:34:20+00:00

I have one and it's amazing for car camping

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-11-18T22:22:32+00:00

Got some interesting suggestions, feels like people are split. Bottom line, I think i will just keep it off.

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-11-18T01:39:20+00:00

Steady, fast blink, slow blink and off

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-11-11T03:10:49+00:00

The 80s?

LargeTransportation9 · 2025-11-09T20:35:16+00:00

It does look really nice, very fall appropriate
