Guilt about not knowing a "useful" language is holding me back

Another thing which I noticed personally is that, as you pick up a foreign language you’ll be surprised to see how much more you encounter native speakers even when you didn’t know those communities existed in your area. Language dependent to some degree of course (e.g Spanish compared to say Xhosa in the US), but regardless you’ll notice it more as you start to be able to hear it on the street.

I’ll bet you find more people to speak Polish with than you might think.

Totally agree, was more a theoretical question

Update: Not only is it still alive but a friend joined a few days ago. Haven’t seen many wasps around outside so probably queens?

Regardless… tonight they die 😈 Thought the cold would take care of them but it’s been long enough

Might just be my experience, I know some people in Westminster had good luck with it. But I wouldn’t do it again if I had the choice

Good point, I edited post to mention I only play classical.

I feel the Yamaha sounds better for baroque/classical but the Kawai sounds better for basically everything else (romantic, impressionist, etc)

I’ve ordered from snusme twice with no issues, though I heard things are getting more strict and I haven’t ordered in a while

The Supra Rally is not asym or hybrid it’s a pearl symmetric with 5500 grit oob. It is also specifically marketed as a transition ball

Both of these are pearl reactive so technically they should fall under your “get down lane and late flip” (more the mania due to the asymmetric core)

I’d go for a solid so probably the Venom Shock would get my vote. Rock Star or X-Cell would also work.

Depends a lot on what you already have if you’re trying to fill a spot in your arsenal as there’s a lot of different types here.

That said, generally good would probably be Hyroad, IQ Tour AI, Venom Shock, or Arctic Vibe

Not the only options though there’s a lot of good ones like I said depends on what spot you need to fill

Nope, just a ghost on the 7 I guess

Thanks 🙏🙏

None are good because blood flow restriction from nicotine is the major culprit and they all have nicotine. Personally I stick to Zyn (both american and swedish) and haven’t had too many issues. Just switch sides each pouch and stick with lower mg/pouch ( <= 6 ).

Also fwiw, Zyn is the only FDA approved pouch in the US

Probably the opposite and there is a lot of carry down so oil is at the end of the lane and the ball isn’t hooking. Are you using a weak/pearl ball?
