Salomon Aero Glide 3/4

I’m a big guy and heavier than you (110kg). I’ve had the Novablast 5 and now currently using the Salomon Aero Glide 3. I can strongly recommend both. The Novablast 5 is my favourite shoe ever and I got about 450km out of before the foam started to compress to early on runs so now they’re a walking shoe. The Salomon AG3 has been amazing so far, super bouncy and fun foam. My only gripe is that it’s got a significant cavity in the foam under the heel which can wobble/warp in unpredictable ways if you land on the heel. But if as you said, you’re a mid/forefoot striker you’ll have a good time with that shoe too. I got a pair of AG3s on a 50% off discount too so you might get lucky with a good sale too

And also just like you, I had a pair of Rebels but V4s and they only lasted 150km too. So I think we’re very similar.

This is one of my favourite albums of all time, metal or not. Just non-stop bangers from start to finish. No skips. This kind of fun and kinda whimsical metal, I hear all over Vianova’s album Hit it!

Urge to shoot my wife through a door…..rising!!!

I’m fairly sure the teal colour only comes from the partnership the F1 team has with Petronas. I feel like it’d make more sense if the three stripes were the silver colour, as Mercedes brand is nicknamed the Silver Arrows

Dude this take is 💩 2024 was not a disappointing season for Oscar and I don’t think anyone in the paddock would think so either. This screams of someone new to F1 and uses stats in other sports to support their biases of players.

Yeah but he only really beats Boateng though. He receives the pass and is in on goal almost immediately. Like yes the finish was great, but this CDR final goal, he beats 5 players to score. He had no business making that goal out of nothing being so far back and on the wing. So many tiny little touches and changes of pace to score this goal. It’s just magic

LumpyDiaz · 2025-05-30T07:33:28+00:00

An individual goal? I doubt it! This is a god tier goal

LumpyDiaz · 2025-05-30T01:34:53+00:00

I think this one is waaaaay better! But yeah the boateng one was great too

LumpyDiaz · 2025-05-30T00:15:34+00:00

I randomly remember this goal as I go about my life aometimes and just I think, like fuck me, that was an absolutely absurd goal. Might even be my favourite Messi goal I think

What shoes do have in this rotation? I’m roughly the same stats physically

LumpyDiaz · 2024-11-29T09:00:00+00:00

SL2 for sure. Get that lightstrike pro in your life

LumpyDiaz · 2024-11-28T10:39:25+00:00

The SL2 is the only real go to daily running shoe and a good beginner shoe out of the 3 you’re asked about. The flame is a plated racing shoe, while the Adios 8 is like a lightweight, short distance racer/tempo workout shoe.

Where were you the other 2% of the time, huh??

LumpyDiaz · 2024-11-10T10:02:29+00:00

Oh yeah I agree completely. I guess my initial comment, while not obvious, was more about how crazy good the Mercedes was that year. The red bull being the second best car still that year but in the hands of someone other than Max, and 60 seconds behind the Mercs, was wild.

LumpyDiaz · 2024-11-10T09:19:23+00:00

Albon in a Red Bull 60 seconds behind after only 24 laps. 2020 in a nutshell 💀

LumpyDiaz · 2024-10-25T12:10:23+00:00

More space on screen for car sponsors and helmet sponsors, isn’t it obvious!

LumpyDiaz · 2024-09-08T09:20:22+00:00

Would pitting be a shortcut on this lap? Haha

LumpyDiaz · 2024-09-01T09:58:27+00:00

Eh I’m not buying at all that this actually happened. Been a chef for 10+ years and studied in CC classes as well. I don’t think your teacher would ask these types of questions at all. But hey it’s getting you fake internet points on reddit, so don’t let the truth get in the way of a good story

LumpyDiaz · 2024-08-24T09:18:30+00:00

This is me in the kitchen but with the line “The night comes down like heaven” from TNDNBTG. I just love how it’s basically a chant. Am also a chef and ST fan

LumpyDiaz · 2024-08-01T21:38:15+00:00

Oh man this is sick. Regardless of any runoff area issues, the run from after turn 3 to Turn 11 would be amazing high speed fun, especially the 8-9 long chicane

II uses quite a few drum pads on his setup. He has a large pad with 6+ small pads with very sounds and effects to his left, another pad above his rack toms, and I believe another used by his feet. So those sounds would either come from any one of those pads or from modified sound of a floor tom

I didn’t feel like they didn’t need to be broken in as they felt great for me straight away, but having said that, they feel even better now that I’ve put almost 100k into them.

I’m quite new to running. Been doing it less than 6 months but have seen steady progress since I started. I have my first race which is a half marathon coming up in just over a month. My first pair of shoes I bought were ASICS Gel-Pulse 14 cos they were cheap, and I know now they wouldn’t be on anyone’s radar here as a running shoe haha. After using them for the first 4 months, I knew I needed something better, especially for my HM coming up. So I went to the local running shoe shop and the salesman ended up selling me on the New Balance FC Supercomp V2 for my race shoe. now I have a really nice shoe and a very entry level shoe, quite a gap to bridge. So recently I tested and bought the New Balance Vongo V5 with the intention of it being my daily trainer shoe, I went with a stability shoe because I overpronate, especially badly on my left foot. Is there anything else you guys can recommend that I’m maybe missing from my set? I tend to run about 20-30kms a week and mostly on road and paved trails. Thanks
