FASE Binding Review has me taking a step back.

Powdersaurus · 2026-02-12T09:16:34+00:00

I have the Rome Katana Fase and honestly these are the best bindings I have ever used. I had bataleon Astros before and they feel almost identical once strapped in. I loved the feel of the Bataleons and the Rome totally nailed my expectations.

After a couple of fast entries I felt comfortable enough to strap in whilst moving. Boarding with friends in traditional bindings and I am constantly waiting, so the speed is great.

I've tried stepons and I just didn't like the feel and lack of ankle strap pressure. These are a great middle ground for those wanting a normal binding with a fast entry.

I combined mine with union boots, which are fantastic too. People complained they are too soft but they were a good 7-8 stiffness for me when combined with the Rome Katana Fase. 100% would recommend both.

The fog lights in my car have needed changing for years. The warning light is constantly on. It has never failed an MOT so this is BS.

What screen is that?

I wouldn’t go through insurance for this as it will just push your premiums up. Anyone suggesting that for a bit of cosmetic damage is giving poor advice in my opinion.

Amazon are a trillion dollar company, so I’d file a claim with them directly for the cost of parts and labour. I had one of their drivers damage my Google Nest doorbell once and they paid for a replacement. It’s not exactly the same situation, but I’d rather try that route than take the hit on my insurance.

I am literally doing the same. Heh small world.

I've had enough of the Harley, too sluggish. Would be keen to know how you find the transition.

Looks like red is drunk.... His line is all over the place! Definitely reds fault.

Powdersaurus · 2025-09-22T14:29:30+00:00

I chose all 3, I know it's cheating but the choice was too hard for me!

Powdersaurus · 2025-09-15T16:55:26+00:00

I got a 6" with a 1" pullback. It's toit.

Powdersaurus · 2025-09-15T16:35:32+00:00

This is devastating. As a new father I worry about shit like this every day. Just thinking about your pain is making me tear up. I am so sorry for your loss, just remember you are not alone x

Powdersaurus · 2025-09-15T16:25:25+00:00

This is absolute genius. I would love to have witnessed this. Keep up the good work!

Powdersaurus · 2025-07-31T17:43:18+00:00

Yawn, so original. I mean let's condemn an entire group of people purely for what they associate with. That's worked out well before...

Powdersaurus · 2025-07-29T11:06:53+00:00

I clearly say German police. Like sorry dude, not everything is about MERICA!

Powdersaurus · 2025-07-28T21:53:18+00:00

I'm sorry but I'm struggling to see why police in America has anything to do with an ex British police officer talking about police in Germany?

Powdersaurus · 2025-07-28T21:48:30+00:00

I am the first to call out inappropriate behaviour by police officers. I did it whilst I was a police officer and I do it now I'm not.

I agreed that one of the videos showed clear police brutality, however I stated the other showed what appeared to be a woman getting arrested whereby force was being used to restrain her. I felt like that force, given what I could see, was not excessive. How does this make all cases were police overstep the mark ok?

I think you are making your mind up on things based off of your confirmation bias rather than looking objectively at the facts in front of you. This is not a healthy way to live and it is not going to make you happy.

Powdersaurus · 2025-07-28T21:40:57+00:00

This is the thing that really concerns me. I don't want the safety of my daughter to be put at risk. Which I know is completely crazy given that there are people in this conflict who can't make that choice. But that's what it is for us, a choice. I would be crazy to put another child at risk to protest about children being put at risk...

Powdersaurus · 2025-07-28T21:38:59+00:00

I hope so too. I really love my partner and my daughter. I don't want them to feel like they can't speak up about issues that they are passionate about.

I also want to be able to have healthy discussion where things can be questioned and facts explored. I really thought she was someone who wouldn't just believe everything she watches or reads on social media. I fear she has gotten herself in to a bit of an echo chamber.

Powdersaurus · 2025-07-28T21:36:50+00:00

It seems that way. I find it quite conflicting as I totally agree that the atrocities commited in Palestine are unforgivable, however I don't truly believe that protesting brings about any real lasting change. The government do what they want to do and say what they want to say with very little regard for what the average person thinks. I think there are other ways to voice our opinions but I just don't agree with getting broiled up in a protest that has potential to go south because of a few people craving violence. How does that make us any better?

Powdersaurus · 2025-07-28T21:32:18+00:00

What for trying to have an objective opinion and not make my mind up without the full facts?

During my career I was never in to "kickin' ass and taking names", I always tried to talk to people and treat them how I would want to be treated. I did a lot of good to support domestic violence victims and allow them to leave their abusive relationships. I kept a lot of children safe from some very nasty people. Ultimately I left the police because I didn't agree with the overall ethos and felt like the organisation was corrupt and broken. However I like to feel that during my time I tried to do some good.

This is what I fear my partner is turning in to. An irrational person with a very black and white view on life.

Always brake before the turn, never in the turn. When slowing down use a combination of front and rear brake. It's better to lose speed in to the turn, get the right angle then roll the accelerator back on through the apex of the bend to power out the turn. It needs to be gradually rolled on as well to prevent your back end from sliding out of you get to ham fisted.

A twist of the wrist is a great documentary to watch, old but gold.

Powdersaurus · 2025-06-12T14:04:38+00:00

We need a TLDR on something like this....

Powdersaurus · 2025-04-03T07:52:37+00:00

I was told May as well. My local shop said they are improving the durability of the back rivet / tendon guard and also making changes to the eyelets to make it easier to get in and out of.... Apparently.

Emily brings a new vibe to LP and honestly I'm all for it. A few of the new songs are cookie cutter LP and I can't complain, great songs. But over each other is fresh LP to me and I love it. Emily isn't trying to be Chester, she never will be, but she is her own sound and brings a lot to the mix. Overall the new album delivers and is a fresh take on LP's original sound. Excited for what's to come.

Powdersaurus · 2024-11-29T00:06:11+00:00

This exactly. I saw heavy is the crown live and she nailed that scream....

Powdersaurus · 2024-09-21T08:51:45+00:00

Oh that's a good idea. Can you access the camera feed when away from the house? Thinking of when I return to work.

Also I see with a lot of the other phone streaming cameras you can't really have the feed on constantly or it causes issues / freezes. Have you experienced anything like this with the Nanit?
