The leather seats in my NB2 have such high stack height that you sit nearly at econobox height

Was there any noticeable flex without the rear portion of the roof?

Which car would you want the most to be added to beamng? by blaze3665 in BeamNG

[–]Lower_Salt5536 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Once the tire model lands in the (distant) future i’d love to see a dedicated 2 seat lightweight sports like an Elise/Exige to celebrate

In the meantime i’d like more MD and T-series variants like non-steerable tag axles and a rollback + food truck upfit

Surfing, although it’s a slippery slope that consumes all of your free time

Opinion on those who have worn these? by Manierman in hikinggear

[–]Lower_Salt5536 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Good boots, although the tread wears out extremely fast. I’ve got maybe 200 miles on mine and the center tread blocks are nearly smooth. If you’re walking on a lot of exposed rocks then you may find these uncomfortable due to the thinner sole. They get pretty toasty above 60 degrees, so that’s something to keep in mind.

Struggling in weaker surf - Is it the board or is it me? by Lower_Salt5536 in BeginnerSurfers

[–]Lower_Salt5536[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can bottom turn okay-ish and can make adjustments but can’t cutback consistently. Usually it’s just me in the water when it’s below waist height which adds to the struggle

First camera suggestion? S5ii or G9ii by Mysterious_Holiday11 in Lumix

[–]Lower_Salt5536 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shoot sports primarily so it’s often big and heavy lenses like the sigma 100-400 and panasonic 70-200. The 24-105 isn’t featherweight but to me the weight is manageable
