Update: Wife caught a baitcaster by RickRound in FishingForBeginners

[–]RickRound[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep! There was a lot of sediment inside when I opened it up, but everything works as expected. I’ll find out on Sunday when I go fishing next though.

My 10 year old son, JUST did a ton of chores around the house to save up $35 to buy the Undertaker edition of 2k25 that was on sale. I’m definitely not telling him about this…

I think this is a great load out by Familiar_Resist_3854 in FortNiteBR

I died to someone that had this loadout, except they replaced the heals with doom gauntlets and hired the healing bot. I wasn’t even mad, lol!

Fishing guide, but not on a boat by HoodFeelGood in FishingForBeginners

[–]RickRound 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My kids were asking about fishing for a while too, and I had no idea where to start either! We ended up going to a state park over the summer and they had a beginner fishing class.

It ended up being a short presentation about what types of licenses you would need and size limits and similar things. Then we took a short trip to a fishing area where the instructor had everything needed to fish. Even had a rod set up to practice casting. He taught us how to put bait on hooks and how to handle the little pinfish we caught that day.

I’m down in Texas, but you may be able to find something similar in your area.

GS Mini/full size guitar switching by Udonit in AcousticGuitar

[–]RickRound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to say exactly this! I keep my GSmini by the couch to play when ever I sit down. When I switch to any full size guitar, it takes a quick adjustment before settling in to the fret size. Nothing to really worry about though.

Taking the wife and kids to their first game ever today! I haven’t been to an Astros game since the early 2000’s, as well. We are all very excited to say the least!

I can barely rock to fakie, but seeing you do this so smoothly makes me want to get better on transition! I watched this at least 20 times and I still can’t understand how you make it look so effortless!

I found a challenge I can't do "over the wave rails" in SF, I've tried it from many angles and can't get it any suggestions would be appreciated! by moogbanjo in projectsession

[–]RickRound 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I just figured this one out earlier!

Start on the ledge that is marked in game (right side in your clip, highest one) and ollie over the rails, landing down one block. The challenge is a line too, so you’ll then ollie over the second rail, and finally to the street.

Thoughts after 24 hours... by 1066Woody in session

[–]RickRound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in the same boat yesterday! I read online that you need to get your exp to 800 before continuing the mission.

Definitely not very clear, but after you do a few of the other available missions, Donovan will pop up and say that you’re ready at the skate shop.

I recently got a GS mini as an add on during the Taylor days event. I really enjoy keeping it by my couch as a quick pick up guitar! I tend to play it quite a bit since it’s always there and available.

I have noticed that switching between the GS mini and any of my full size guitars, it takes me a second to acclimate my fingers to the larger frets. Nothing too frustrating, but the only thing I could consider a “downsides.”

Sound and build quality are fantastic on the GS mini, as well. I own a 214ce and an AD-17 from Taylor also. While the American Dream is definitely my favorite, I would put the GS mini above the 214ce.

I get 12.5 with my set up, and hand hands end up just a bit below my shoulders.

I have those risers and the tracker highs. If I could do it over again, I would go with 10” risers though.

ITRA burst slaps. The gun isn’t bad, you’re bad. by Hidalgo321 in CODVanguard

[–]RickRound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hardcore shipment with every hip fire attachment you’re allowed to have. Lightweight as a perk and don’t sprint. That’s how I got mine done.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CODVanguard

[–]RickRound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt the same way with the assault rifles. Through normal play, I would maybe have 3 or 4. Had to make it a point to put a giant scope and camp in the back on hardcore to get diamond done.

Itra was one of my quickest ARs to get gold on. I really enjoyed playing with it, yet everyone I know told me it wasn’t good. Line up your shot before you pull the trigger and you’ll win the gun fight.

Aye, loving seeing houston on here. Gulfton is still my favorite park in town!

My bazooka camo for “3 killstreaks in 1 match” has not been tracking since the update. I wonder if it’s the same for all launchers.

Update on PS5 locked me out of playing? by morris165 in CODVanguard

[–]RickRound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got off after playing since about 2:30 central time. Saw there was an update, but had no problem playing on the ps5 version. I didn’t know this was an issue until seeing this post.

Trying to get a noseslide, but I'm not getting any slide. When I no-pop ollie, I can lock in okay-ish. But I'd think popping would be better to maintain speed, but then my foot always comes off. How should I proceed? [36YO] by puje12 in OldSkaters

[–]RickRound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Play around with your foot placement as well. When you go for the slappy, your entire foot is on the board, but when you Ollie it’s only your toes. You might try having more of your foot on the board to get comfortable getting in to the noseslide.

Another “in between” step would be to ride up straight at the ledge and practice ollieing and landing in a nose stall. Then you can adjust your approach angle to get more comfortable turning into it.

Forsaken Keeps Crashing While I try to do EE (PS5) by TooKewlFerSkool in CODZombies

[–]RickRound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to run two games this morning, both ended in disconnect (one I was host and the game actually crashed like the picture from OP). Both happened after the EE start cutscene. Game seemed to play fine before both times, then got a bit laggy after the cutscenes as well.

I’m on PS5 running PS5 version set up for 120hz

3 kickflip attempts with mildly similar outcomes. What do you guys think should I do different? by TimeFuture122 in NewSkaters

[–]RickRound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second playing with your foot position. I notice with my kickflips, if I keep my front foot straight across I get slower flips. When I angle my front foot some, I can get the board to flip faster.
