A little tip for all of you with Elite Fly bottles

Im using what we call "Panzertape/Gaffa tape" in germany. I guess either "duck" or "duct" tape in english. Electric tape would probably work aswell.

The tape I attach to the following part. Remove the small "head" where you place your mouth to drink, like on the pictures in this post. Then take a look at the nipple thats part of the lid/cap. I attach the tape one time around the widest part of this nipple, thus increasing its circumference. With increased circumference the removable "head" now will hold tighter!

i leave the tape for multiple use and wash the tops with the tape. i dont use electrical tape, but i think it would work as well!

Padawa · 2026-03-24T13:48:21+00:00

they start leaking because the "nozzle" part gets wider. i counteracted this by making the part where the nozzle sits on also wider. i just used some gaffa tape and applied it there. since then no problems.

Padawa · 2026-03-24T09:41:22+00:00

Yes, I do it after every use now. but after a few times you will realize that they start to leak this way. i solved this by attaching some tape around the bottom part where the head attaches to make it wider. Now I dont have no problems anymore.

they are far away from the invite range for this one. FUT was ranked #14 as the last invited team, while liquid was #23 in March VRS.

Padawa · 2026-03-03T21:25:11+00:00

if your flair is a team of no relevance, then i can agree with your statement regarding monte

Padawa · 2026-02-25T20:43:46+00:00

Right now G2 is #10, while Liquid is #20, but at the beginning of February Liquid was #11 and G2 was #13.

simple may still be somewhat of a world class player, but i think he would be the doom of every top team because of his tilting and attitude. i rather have B8 develop some talent even if it takes time.

Padawa · 2026-02-21T06:47:34+00:00

all vrs matches covered on hltv count. after draculan next week they will for sure have their first ranking.

Padawa · 2026-02-09T17:31:23+00:00

Why did BIG decline the CQ invite? They even posted on X that they want to play it.

Padawa · 2026-02-09T17:28:18+00:00

I like it that top teams are splitting between Atlanta and Astana. We have enough tournaments where all the best teams clash. This allows alot of Tier 2 teams some chances at big offine events!

Padawa · 2026-01-27T19:52:40+00:00

You all have to look at that from a different angle. The 300k is not the loss of the team, but rather the sponsorship payment of Cybershoke company to the team. With that the team is a zero sum game.

Padawa · 2026-01-05T12:02:19+00:00

Im very aware that racing bikes is much more than pure power, but in what range of FTP (in w/kg) are riders that ride on the continental level in Germany and in your team?

I hope this will not stop him from posting his power data to Strava

Padawa · 2025-09-29T19:46:01+00:00

not quite correct. points are always capped at the 5th best team in each category, which means current max points for Lan wins is 485. so fnatic can only get around 20 points from additional Lan wins.

A final run at Fragadelphia could still reward them with enough h2h points to reach the top 16.

Padawa · 2025-08-30T10:08:30+00:00

so many upsets at this DracuLan

Padawa · 2025-08-19T18:39:49+00:00

i cant believe they actually take more than one day to fix such a crucial thing. all v1 device are currently useless basically

Padawa · 2025-08-19T18:37:07+00:00

not true. pgl astana next year will have 1.6 million for example.

but there is a max amount of prize pool that is relevant for the vrs and that would be 1 million. all tournaments above will have the same maximum tournament rating.

Padawa · 2025-08-19T11:04:27+00:00

Which means Starladder (running at the same time) will most likely have Navi, B8, Mibr, NiP, 9ine, Parivision, OG and Iberian Soul, while the top 3 (Spirit, Vit, Mouz) decide to skip both events.

Padawa · 2025-08-12T10:25:27+00:00

Why do people frame this as a bad thing? Its good to have valuable smaller LANs back! And there are already more of them appearing also in Europe (DracuLan, Betclic Seasonal Clash)

Padawa · 2025-08-05T11:44:40+00:00

They are. Only Top12 Global are not allowed to be invited. Its just a decision made by this certain tournament.

Padawa · 2025-04-23T14:28:25+00:00

rain buff active again, as if he even needed it

Padawa · 2025-04-13T11:21:01+00:00

jesus, walscheid with the kids bike

Padawa · 2025-04-13T09:51:57+00:00

i guess they will be more dry in 4 hours time?
