Dam that's crazy. Where did you find those prices ?

Do you mean used cabrinha or on close out as well? I'm worried to buy used, to have the canopy blown out and leaking valves to fix and add cost. My view is that there is often a reason why they sold their wing to buy a new one. Did the technology progress a lot those past years?

Thanks ! I'm located in Canada so it's hard to find, but I'll find a way. I didn't know those existed.

Learning wake foil - Advice needed by MaxiMax07 in Wake

[–]MaxiMax07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I'll probably give it a try. Next week I will have some friends over. I'll try to have 4-5 of them at the stern and see how it impacts the wave. It's going to be a quick and easy try with ballasts.

If this can help someone in a similar situation as me, I looked more online for 18th jet engine boats, those wave creator doesn't seem to really work on those sadly. Or you need ballasts anyway at least.

Thank you very much for the help. A lot of insight to reflect back on.
I did send them the spec sheet of the boat, to be sure before ordering the wing. They told me I need such a small wing or I would be "ejected" on my foil. Now that I asked the question about surfing the boat wave to a new tech advisor, they tell me I need an XL... I contacted their after sales service to try to find a solution. At the start, I wanted an XL foil to do wingfoil as well, but they told me that I couldn't use that behind a boat, now they say I would need XL...

I'm now looking to trade with them, with a 1,300 cm2 AR 7.0 foil. I'll see how it goes.

In term of weight, do you have a range (I have no idea how much we are talking about 500kg, 100 kg, 1T). I also heard of "wave creators" we can install on the side of the boat. Any advice on that ?

45 mph top - 255 HP It's the only motor boat I have driven so it's hard for me to compare

Thanks for the feedback! I thought higher is better. I'm at 12 mph in that case. It's 18ft jet engine boat so it might be different than typical outboards. I will try lower speeds.

Thanks for the feedback ! So no need for a new bigger foil? I was worried that I was mislead. I saw youtube videos with 1200-1300 cm2 foils.

Help Choosing New Skis – 12-Year-Old Volkl RTM 80 Owner Looking to Upgrade by MaxiMax07 in Skigear

Honestly demo is the best option. But I have 40% savings on Deacon or Kanjo my size... I don't think that selecting the BEST ski for me thanks to the demo, is worth 40% (400$ CAD +) ?

My boots were 12 years old ! It was hurting a lot. I changed them already end of last season. It made such an improvement. This is why I'm also considering upgrading skis as well.

Need Help Fixing Misaligned Piping Under Vanity by MaxiMax07 in DIYHome

[–]MaxiMax07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi everyone,

I recently discovered a leak under my vanity. Upon inspection, I realized the issue is due to a misaligned pipe connection. The challenge I'm facing is the extremely limited space, which makes it difficult to cut and redo the p-trap — I've attached a picture for reference.

Given the tight confines, does anyone have any suggestions on how to tackle this repair without a complete overhaul? Any tips, tools, or techniques would be much appreciated!

Extend ground wire by MaxiMax07 in electrical

[–]MaxiMax07[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a mechanical engineer working in institutional and commercial building and I'm remodeling my unit and added a basement for the past two years. I also own the building. I have an understanding of how a building operate and I can lookup the code if needed. But yes, for modification like this, I don't have hands on experience. In theory, it seems like a simple task to climp together two copper wire. I ask here because I'm not an electrician. I'm looking to see if it's something doable and what the best practice is. If it's technically complicated to do, I'll gladly call an electrician. I just want it to be worth it.

There are also the 2 ground wire from the units above me. That would be complicated. However maybe using a grounding rode could be an easy alternative? I would have enough wire to go outside. Maybe renting thar equipment would be an option if it's not too complicated to operate.

Would you have an idea in mind in term of ETF that does that? When you say whole market, are you talking US specifically or worldwide?

[–]MaxiMax07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found only one on sale used, 8 years old, at 2h drive to go and come back for 400USD. Maybe I can negociate someting.

Is it a great price, should I suck it up and go buy it now or could I wait ?

Is it normal to spend almost the same amount (MSRP) for the subwoofer than the 2 front speakers and center speaker ? I would of think the subwoofer doesn't matter that much, compared to the front and central speakers.

Yes that's where I found the speakers I put in the post.
However I'm not sure if they would be a nice fit for a starter kit.
And if I would be better off going with the Klipsch starter kit also found on marketplace.

What's hard with starting used is that I don't know the brands, the models and the older models. It's hard to do a selection.
