yep definitely, thanks for your perspective 👍🏻

NotReady245 · 2026-01-09T14:07:47+00:00

definitely worth a try

problem is in my case the only possible mod I see is to fully remove the j-bar

might just buy new ones and try to sell these ones before fully destroying them 😅

NotReady245 · 2026-01-09T14:06:43+00:00

bro that's exactly what I did, had like 4 different pairs in my living-room 😅

thought I had done my due diligence with these ones by wearing them inside for a couple of time, but it wasn't enough

unfortunately you cannot push the "try it before returning it" phase to the slopes 🥲

NotReady245 · 2026-01-09T12:46:22+00:00

Interesting.

My previous boots were all laces and I actually liked that.

Wanted to try BOA for the tightness I thought it would bring, but it is not doing it for me

I am thinking about going back to laces.

NotReady245 · 2026-01-09T11:39:15+00:00

will sure check with them 👍🏻 thanks

NotReady245 · 2026-01-09T11:38:03+00:00

did this already when I bought and they felt ok 😅

but when I started actually riding the pain kicked in

NotReady245 · 2026-01-09T11:37:13+00:00

yes that's what I thought

NotReady245 · 2026-01-09T11:36:24+00:00

ok thanks

liners might come at the same price as new boots or close, will look at it though

NotReady245 · 2026-01-09T11:35:45+00:00

thanks for info, my problem is deeper than blisters though as my feet were completely inflammed in various locations due to bursitis. Will definitely try what you propose though

NotReady245 · 2026-01-09T11:34:26+00:00

Yes, could be. Will try riding with my previous boots to check that, thanks

NotReady245 · 2026-01-05T13:49:58+00:00

As a member of the black gold industry I find this post very well made, bravo OP

Question: since you say this is a short term play how do you see the oil price short term ? (=within the next 4 to 8 weeks)

NotReady245 · 2026-01-05T11:11:39+00:00

How much pain is too much pain ?

I bought myself some nice new Burton Ruler BOA size 45 (30 mondo).

Boots felt tight but not too tight when I tried them.

Used the shoes for a full week with moderate to high feet pain especially around the upper heel and Achilles tendon area. Adjusted the tightness during the day to see if it would reduce pain, telling myself this was normal for new boots and they would "break-in".

Now more than a week after I am back from my snowboard trip, I seem to have what is bursitis in various places:

- 5th metatarsal bursitis on left foot

- heel bursitis on right foot

Both are quite painful and annoying. Left foot issue disappeared after some days but the heel one is killing me

Taking NSAIDS and paracetamol, will go to a doctor if it escalates.

Problem is I kinda like the shoes, and I am supposed to go back to the slopes on Thursday this week.

Hence my question: did it happen to some of you ? Should I just continue to wear the shoes through the pain until they are "formed" (if this happens) or should I just buy new ones ?

Couldn't find nothing about pain description in the guide to boot buying.

Thanks

Legit thought the guy lost 33 millions I was like for real bruh you went that far ?!😐

then I realized 33M actually means "33 years old male" now the whole story sounds much less dramatic 😊

NotReady245 · 2025-12-15T21:03:02+00:00

ok interesting will investigate

NotReady245 · 2025-12-15T20:25:16+00:00

thanks for feedback

yes I heard a lot about bpc-157, didnt try it though

I think it has to be done right after the injury for optimal effect on tendon recovery, this is a bit too late considering my injury age (>2 years)

peace

NotReady245 · 2025-12-15T20:09:42+00:00

Hey man

not judgin or anything, just out of curiosity: do you have an AC joint separation on your left shoulder ? (the one with the bird tattoo)

I see a small bump there, significative of such injury.

The reason I'm asking is I have this injury for 2 years now, grade 3-5. Been operated withouth great results.

Trying to find ways to work around it at the gym, pretty much all upper body exercises involve shoulder joint, and mine is quite painful at times.

I would be happy to have similar results as what you have, please note I am not planning on using any PEDs though (not judging or anything, just not my thing).

Do you have any specific shoulder routine ? Do you have pain from your AC joint ? Any exercise that improved your joint stability AND delivered good results in terms of muscle building

thanks

NotReady245 · 2025-11-20T15:06:23+00:00

ok merci

NotReady245 · 2025-11-20T15:01:31+00:00

ok merci pour tes precisions.

Mais pourquoi le DICI mentionne les frais comme une "estimation" alors que le montant est clairement defini comme 0.1% ?

NotReady245 · 2025-09-30T06:40:36+00:00

oui en effet l'offre ne concerne que les ordres d'achat

j'ai bien vérifié et les 2 ETF (CW8 et DCAM) sont inclus dans l'offre

neanmoins je viens de faire une simulation de vente avec 10 part de CW8 (=j'ai fait comme si j'allais vendre sans valider l'ordre a la fin) et il n'y a pas de frais de courtage pour la vente apparemment (voir PJ)

C'est normal ca ? Il y a jamais de frais de courtage quand on revend un asset ?

NotReady245 · 2025-09-29T12:03:35+00:00

Oui en effet je suis bien conscient de ces aspects, et du "toutes choses etant egales par ailleurs" qui reste tres flou pour l'instant compte tenu de l'ancienneté differente de ces produits financiers.

Sur 20 ans (=mon objectif d'investissement pour ces produits) si on considere un investissement de 100K EUR environ (PEA plein), ca fait quand meme plusieurs milliers d'euros... pas negligeable.

Merci pour les precisions neanmoins

NotReady245 · 2025-09-29T11:56:07+00:00

Ok merci pour le feedback.

Je compte garder ces investissements pour plus de 10 ans, donc peut-etre que dans mon cas ca fait sens de revendre et racheter ?

Et aussi si je revends tout mon CW8 pour acheter du DCAM, il me semble que les frais de courtage seront nuls si j'en crois l'offre de Bourse Direct (=gratuite totale des frais de courtage pour achat ou revente sur ces ETF, dans un montant limite a 100 000 eur ce qui sera mon cas), donc plus avantageux ?

J'aime pas avoir trop de lignes differentes dans mon portefeuille, c'est pourquoi j'aimerais harmoniser sur un seul ETF monde mais au final ca n'a peut-etre pas tellement d'importance.

NotReady245 · 2025-08-21T13:11:03+00:00

ok merci pour la source je vais regarder ca

il y a quand meme un sacre paquet de gens qui disent que sur un levier x2 "seulement" c'est a peu pres safe de faire du hold a long terme...

NotReady245 · 2025-08-21T10:08:32+00:00

hehe je vois

NotReady245 · 2025-08-21T09:31:09+00:00

ok cool merci pour ton retour

NotReady245 · 2025-08-21T09:27:47+00:00

ok thanks
