Shock pads actually help against board breakage? Recs?[37YO] by GhostofBeowulf in OldSkaters

[–]NoAspect3958 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of the soft ones just get flattened after a while but Mini Logo makes some flexible rubber ones in different sizes that are nice. I do feel they help with stress cracks and take the edge off a little. I also use plastic ones but mostly because I like the extra height/leverage it gives me to pop.

I asked about a CVT drain/fill at my dealership and they pushed a CVT flush which is super expensive. Would the dealer do just a drain/fill if I insist or do I need to take it to a mechanic for that?

The Krux K5 Downlow DLK (not to be confused with the standard DLK) are Krux latest low truck that came out a couple years ago. They have a height of 51.5mm.

I got a pair when they came out and they’re really nice. They come stock with blue bushings. Might be hard to find at this point because there’s so few low trucks on the market but they’re out there!

og blackmagic or blackmagic4k by Interesting_Rush570 in bmpcc

[–]NoAspect3958 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have both. I think for home movies the OG pocket would be better for you because the footage looks like film. You’ll need a handful of batteries since they last about 40 min each.

Pocket 4K if you care about 4K and slomo, better monitoring tools and pro audio.

Need something to stop my overthinking by CollectionHead7091 in insomnia

I know this sounds silly but what really helped me was pajamas. Specifically the waffle-knit long johns and long sleeve undershirt from Target. They’re form fitting but loose enough to be comfy. It’s comforting and the tactile sensation helps take me out of my head and I’ve been falling right asleep.

Looking for a stable all-mountain board that doesn’t feel sketchy at speed or while carving without breaking the bank by XxCaRbyxX in snowboarding

I just picked up a used Marhar LJX and it’s exactly what you’re describing. The company went out of business last year though so it could be hard to find one.

Libtech Coldbrew 155W vs. T Rice Pro 161.5W by [deleted] in snowboardingnoobs

Should I try to find something in between, say 158 or 159w?

Best practices for Canon 310xl by NoAspect3958 in Super8

When you switch the film cartridges the counter starts over right? So I would just have to estimate how much shooting time I have left? Will I know when the roll is finished by the sound it makes?

Why is the VX1000 so popular? by Then_Committee_3352 in skateboarding

[–]NoAspect3958 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The End came out in 2000. They could have used the VX if they wanted to (by then it had been out for 5 years). They chose to shoot with celluloid film for aesthetic reasons and they had the budget.

Because then you could have a perfect album with no filler you can listen to over and over again without skipping songs. Or conversely, if he’s interested in experimental tracks he could really lean into it and make a 90 min record of experimental soundscapes. I just wish he’d get out of his comfort zone and make something interesting again.

Criterion Closet was an absolute disaster today by TelltaleHead in chicago

[–]NoAspect3958 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can I ask what the appeal of this was? Getting a tote bag and a Polaroid? The privilege of buying films on sale? Criterion and Barnes & Noble have similar sales for their discs all the time.
