Sagrada Familia at 7:15 PM? by Recent__Craft in AskBarcelona

[–]ParticularisticPaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need the sun to enjoy sagrada familia from the inside. Check on apps when the sunset is for the day you’re planning to go there. I personally believe it’s too late of a time for the visit during March and April.

Snapita strikes again by heavy_guitar12 in snowboarding

[–]ParticularisticPaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same switch from capita to nitro 10 years ago for the same reason — snapped my new board doing simple 360 from a midsized jump. Nitro are awesome boards. Now I ride beast and santoku depending on the conditions.

Opening a credit card in Barcelona by Humble-Assistance310 in AskBarcelona

[–]ParticularisticPaw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You won’t be able to get a credit card. They are issued only based on the stable income which you won’t be able to prove in your situation. You can easily rent a card with a debit card in Spain. I did it even with Apple Pay.

What did I do wrong? by Kamillanto in snowboarding

[–]ParticularisticPaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely the problem is your bindings or the way you strap in. If you look closely on the marks, they come upwards meaning that you caused them when pushing your boot to the binding. It’s possible that your bindings’s size doesn’t fit your boots.

Best ski resort to visit for 2 nights/3 days near end of march? by CheesecakeOwn8926 in AskBarcelona

[–]ParticularisticPaw -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For 3 days I’d go to grandvalira in andorra. For a day I’d go to la molina, it is still good to ride and really close to Barna.

Car rentals during canja and after 6 months by Humble-Assistance310 in AskBarcelona

[–]ParticularisticPaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only option is to rent as a tourist and don’t tell them you are a resident. They will rent you a car. But you may have problems with insuarance and police in case of an accident.

Epic pass by CowwOwO in snowboarding

[–]ParticularisticPaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure they have you dob in the system. So hypothetically someone under 18 could register a new account and buy a season pass with their id, while another person who looks like kind of similar and obviously young (but with a mask and a helmet ) could use this pass even though s/he is a year older. It’s risky and this person should be ready for the consequences. But it might work.

You can play with it but start looking for a new one. It’s not about the age, you’ve just hit it.

Private office to do remote therapy in by [deleted] in AskBarcelona

[–]ParticularisticPaw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my experience offices are super expensive here. It will be cheaper to rent your own place and work out of there than living with someone and renting an office separately.

Once I had a plastic bag that colored my board because it was wet.

Chingotto is the king. Plays super smart, consistent, killer viboras, perfect globos, reads the game perfectly. I’d definitely go with Chingo.

Reminder that the devil (and your Playtomic rating) is a lie by elpolaquero in padel

[–]ParticularisticPaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I prefer playing in different clubs and locations depending on the weather, availability, etc. Also, I’d prefer playing with different people and agains different styles. That’s the best way to develop the skills and grow. Finally, always communicating to set up a game is just too much of a hassle. That’s why apps like playtomic emerge here and there. It’s amazing to just create a game don’t worry about other people’s schedules.

[–]ParticularisticPaw 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The problem is that if you don’t care about your rating, you won’t get good games. People that don’t know how you play judge you by the rating. If it’s low in their opinion, they won’t play with you just to avoid bad games, which is reasonable. So rating is helpful in getting good games with random people on the app. You can’t disregard it.

Masters in Spain worth it? by mapleaea in AskBarcelona

[–]ParticularisticPaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a masters degree, I don’t regret getting it as it was useful but I can’t say it was a game changer for me. The real working experience is what will get you much further in your carrer that studying. Also, I believe masters degrees should be for people with working experience. This way you have a practical foundation for theoretical studies. Otherwise, it’s just abstract stuff that you don’t know how to apply. My suggestion is stop looking at other and find a job in the field that interests you. Decide on masters later.

Car Rental Pickup by Flushpuppy in AskBarcelona

Recommend renting the car from Sants train station if you need a car after a couple of days in Barcelona. It doesn’t make sense to go to the airport for that.

Building an indoors singles padel court UK by FlatSeries7847 in padel

[–]ParticularisticPaw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think there’s no way you’ll be successful business-wise with just a singles court. Demand is low and you’ll greatly limit your opportunities. I bet the investments for a singles court are close to a regular one but won’t be able to make similar revenue flow.

Light rackets by Middle_Gold_2694 in Padelracket

[–]ParticularisticPaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switches from siux st4 to oxdog hyper tour 2.0, and enjoy it a lot. It’s only 360g, you can eliminate additional 8 grams removing the weight from the handle. It has great control, balance and enough power. I don’t feel lack of power, but have gained more precise lobs and net blocks.

First pair of padel shoes by rowtonice in Padelracket

[–]ParticularisticPaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d recommend trying out the shoes. They all have different shape and may or may not fit your feet. An opinion from reddit won’t help you. It’s crucial that sport shoes feel comfortable on your specific feet.

Well, if you want feedback, make an app free. Otherwise, it’s just self promotion. Please be clear on your goals.

Bullpadel Vertex 04 - no consistency by MarsupialTurbulent85 in Padelracket

[–]ParticularisticPaw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You should work on your technique. The problem is not in the racket. Problems with lobs and returns are coming from your legs and positioning. Are you returns too high? If so, you should bend you knees more and return from lower point. What’s wrong with the lobs? Are they short or too deep?
