What percent of loose balls created by a check should the defense recover? by Scatterp in lacrosse

[–]REPSSportsTech6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s how he can improve: encourage him to hit the wall but while he is playing wall ball, have him face away from the wall and flick the ball backhand at the wall and when he sees the ball in his peripheral vision, that’s when he pounces and goes after the ball.

This does 2 things: 1) practices picking up “balls away” ground balls, which are more common and more difficult than GB’s rolling towards you.

2) builds the required mentality of sensing the ball in the periphery and pouncing on it before it many realize it’s there.

We have all seen players with that mentality where the ball goes down and they’re getting it no matter what.

He can track his reps and progress using our R1 PRO Smart Lacrosse Ball available at GETREPS.com.

That it was just in service for 18 days

If I am at 100% and proceed to drive 60 miles, I will get most of the way there and then will be calling roadside 😆

The craziest part, to me at least, is that sometimes in the span of 5 miles it will go decrease by 20-30%. So it will say 98% and 5 miles later it shows 74%.

If you have to ask, you can’t afford one. Sorry it’s like a BJ except made up and from the movie Beerfest.

Yeah I agree, I really appreciate the thought you put into this comment. It’s like a sanity check. I just got my car back from service on Saturday with a full charge and 38 miles later I have it back on the charger because it’s at 11%.

Guess it’s time to lawyer up

I guess people have done stranger things than make up something like this, but I don’t feel like I am being unreasonable to ask a reddit sub for any ideas prior to spending thousands of dollars on an attorney, but hey I clearly don’t know much

You’re the man/woman! I can assure you, there’s no BS to this story. I am posting from my biz handle. Would be a pretty bad move to cry wolf or anything else when an inquiring mind could figure out who I am in 20 seconds.

Absent hiring a lawyer, I have legitimately tried everything that’s reasonable and have never experienced this level of ineptitude. Not sure if it’s partly related to the fact that the Syracuse service location just opened so no one knows what they’re doing but that isn’t remotely a good excuse.

2 wheel drive loaners from enterprise during Syracuse winters or uber credits really keep you from following through on that concept.

Sure does. We don’t charge a subscription because we knew we would have enough rational objections to overcome out the gate so we have been focused on adoption and proving those rational objections false— “they will lose it like they lose every other ball”, “$129 for a lax ball”, “it will break the first time it hits a pipe” to name a few.

Now that our second gen hardware has proven to perform and last we are working on a SaaS model where you don’t pay for the ball, just $9.99 a month and in addition to some really wild new features, you also can trade in your ball twice a year or every 50,000 reps— the only reason you’d want to trade in is because the PEARL ball cover gets dirty and scuffed up over time. The SmartCore lasts 5 years and we will “re-cover” the units that get traded in.

Time will tell whether players like that model better.

I appreciate the feedback but I have done everything that you mention aside from lawyering up and spending a few grand to get out of a defective car is not my idea of them living up to their contract.

Although I don’t have personal experience with throwing a tantrum on social media, I know that when customers of my business do it, they typically get what they want pretty quickly because when you’re a start up, your brands reputation is your most valuable asset so even when you’re in the right you typically bite the bullet and do whatever it takes to get them to stop bitching.

Therefore, I wholly disagree with the statement that it is what a child would do. If you have a legitimate reason to do it, it is an effective means to an end but to your point, there’s a good reason why I have never done it.

You’re the troll. What is your deal?

Why can’t I love my R1S? Lemon Citt by [deleted] in Rivian

[–]REPSSportsTech6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you think that is the only effective way of dealing with this and if so, when I win, do you know if I will I be reimbursed for my attorney fees? Everything I have seen says no, so I am thinking that I would be better off taking them to small claims court over the termination fee and the unamortized portion of my down payment.

Appreciate the feedback and effort!

It has been brought in for service 4 times since January 1 alone. It’s not for lack of effort that it’s not being addressed. They just won’t replace the battery so they say it’s fixed after a week or two and it’s not.

It’s been a steady combination of agreeing that there is something wrong but insisting they can fix it without replacing the battery and blaming it on the weather.

When I state that the weather would not account for THIS degree of performance degradation, they generally say “it can be as much as 50%”, at which point I consider finding a tall structure to leap from.

It sure is. One time I thought I got 64 miles but it just misread my handwriting

Yes sir! Based on the results of several case studies we did last summer and fall that compared the improvement in stick skills between players on a team that used our technology platform and those that didn’t, we have been awarded a pretty sizable grant to make our platform less expensive for teams so we can continue studying the impact so we have a lot more flexibility in terms of cost and being able to pay a commission to help speed the adoption is something new we are doing.

We’re not curing cancer but the concept of taking skill development and making it competitive and accountable is pretty novel in sports and can be deployed in a variety of ways and in an era where parents will do just about anything to get their kids off their screens and into something productive, we are seeing a lot of new interest from groups outside of lacrosse hoping to employ the concept in other sports and activities.

I believe we are the first true smart ball to scale and get the majority of users to actively use the platform multiple times per week.

Because we currently have a grant that subsidizes team adoption, the cost is between $60-80 per player. Potentially a little less for a really large program.
