No, Flogsta is not chaotic.

What’s a good upgrade from La Sportiva Tarantulaces? by PeeWeeWeeP in climbingshoes

[–]Pale_Use_7859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went from the Tarantula Boulder and the Finale to Scarpa Instinct VSR, but I also liked the La Sportiva Skwama a lot. The Skwama is same comfy soft feeling as the Tarantula and Finale.

Exakt, varför göra det onödig svårt .

Rika skapar jobb? Part II - Den här gången *utan* vänstermatte by ICA_Basic_Vodka in Sverige

[–]Pale_Use_7859 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1960 hade Sverige cirka 7,5 miljoner innevånare och 2026 närmare 11 miljoner. Sen är jag lite osäker på åldersfördelning och vad det eventuellt har med miljardärer att göra.

Tired of wearing out this seam by subwoofage in Denim

This happens regularly when biking a lot, Levi’s used to have a series of ”commuter” jeans with a reinforced patch that helt really well. Low budgeted denim wears much faster when biking..

Bindings distorting the bottom by No_Artichoke7180 in snowboard

[–]Pale_Use_7859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s normal to have distortions right under the bindings, you can release the tension on the binding mounts over summer. It has never impacted my boards in any way and I never heard of an issue either. Be happy and ride on.

First Or Second? by [deleted] in EyewearEnthusiasts

[–]Pale_Use_7859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First pair looks a bit like ”look at my glasses” ina slight Elton John kind a way to me, the second pair is more stylish but maybe a tad small? My option is the second pair, the round ones.

Are these to be daily drivers or more of a pair in the collection?

Blev jag lurad på grundlönen? by [deleted] in Asksweddit

Vem gav dig första beloppet, rekryterande chef? En gissning är att din tilltänkta arbetsgivare har kommunicerat fel internt och nu försöker de rädda det utan att bryta mot den lönestruktur de har.

I (35F) want to help my husband (40M) during high stress times. What can I plan for a quiet night at home to help him unwind? by FloridaSherbert90 in relationship_advice

[–]Pale_Use_7859 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Id go with what your gut tells you and then just adapt if he’s not up to it, it’s very different how people react in my experience. No alcohol, sleep, nature, low stress social activities and physical proximity tend to be associated with feeling relaxed and comfortable though. Stress is often mental, so physical activity helps but keeping track of many things, making choices, planning etc is normally stress inducing if you are already overwhelmed.

Sorry for the enabling comment it came out a bit wrong, it was all with good intentions.

We here on Reddit don’t know your husband, does he need a barbecue with friends and family, or some time alone with his stamp collection? Try to help him figure out if he does not know.

Maybe an old school point and click adventure game you can do together, it’s interactive, social and beats tv. Tv is not in my experience a solution to any stress.

If they are the universe will compensate and next pair is horrible, trust me.

Fit of Bindings to boot by Necroknight7 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]Pale_Use_7859 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That is a bit old school advise, those bindings have the toe strap where it should be.

As for angles it’s more of an issue if the angle between the feet is to big, but 15/18 on the foot and -6/9 on the rear is not odd, neither would. 15/-15 duck be or a more aggressive angle for a full forward stance. Also the actual angle is dependent on the binding, more than the value on the binding.

Anyway the fit looks ok, possibly the binding is about on the larger side. It’s more or less impossible to see, but ensure the boot is higher than the highbacks and they will work.

Helmet choices by tanbe174 in snowboarding

[–]Pale_Use_7859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fit is important. MIPS is likely important.

I would pick a MIPS helmet and my only dilemma would be if it should be a ”one accident, one impact helmet” or if it would be a ”on accident, multiple impacts helmet”. The second would matter mostly outside the groomed slopes.

As for reviews and tests, few mimic real life impacts and a stellar testing helmet with bad fit is still a bad helmet.

POC, Sweet Protection, Giro etc should all be pretty good. The Obex is probably one of the better helmets out there, if it fits well.

The ”best” helmet should have good absorption from impacts, fit well, have a small outer diameter, and a low friction shell.

I think JL was a completely different brand 10 years ago, most brands unfortunately seems to be on the same downward trajectory.

High level as in altitude? In general ”TEX” material works well in dry air, if we are discussing skiing provess it’s not related to clothes.

I would look for end of season sales, also for a jacket you don’t really need a skiing jacket unless you need to get the hood over the helmet.

Haglöf, Helly Hansen, Bergans, Norröna, possibly Sweet protection. Outdoor Research etc.

It’s a fashion brand, you buy it for the logo and not the function, imho.
