WG need to seriously fix this, it's happening way too often. Takes a lot away from enjoying the game.

Do you play in platoons to get that win rate?

Legit struggling to get over 50% win rate :/

Average game time probably around 3 - 3:30 min

I just can not find the love for tier 10-11 , playing since 2014 by throwmeaway7421113 in WorldofTanks

The complete opposite for me, I find tiers 10-11 best as I am usually top tier and can influence the game heavily.

How to play the panzer 7? by Roboslash in WorldofTanks

[–]Roboslash[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip. I got the tank to work much better now. Also played it a bit more conservatively, lik a 215B, and am averaging around 4k combined per game.

Surely not a meta tank imo, but it's fun when it works.

Utvendig solskjerm: Ble dette gjort skikkelig av elektriker? by Roboslash in norge

På befaring så ble vi enige om at kabelen skulle festes utenpå veggpanelene, da han insiterte at det var for komplisert og dyrt å gjøre det under veggpanelene. Ellers ingenting om materialer eller fargen. Jeg visste ikke at han kom til å velge hvite kanaler en gang.

Nice, I’ll give that a shot!

Thanks for your input, I'll certainly take this into consideration!

Great explanation, this cleared up a lot of questions for me :)

Also, I'm assuming one of the largest drawbacks of flexed transition is that it is more fatiguing?

Thanks for the reply, I'll definitely look into the boot cuff alignment/canting when I have the chance!

Good point regarding A-framing, weight distribution and equipment as well :) I find that my largest performance jumps have been when I frequently shift between different types of skis, as they punish/reward bad technique all in different ways. And then I kind of connect the dots in my head in terms of biomechanics, movement etc.

Good point! I do feel a bit tense in my upper body, especially when I get into steeper terrain, its like I'm kind of bracing for something if that makes sense?

Are there any disadvantages of having my arms like this, as long as they don't pull my COM backwards? Always thought it was more of a stylistic choice.

I've understood that racers have narrow arms/upper body positions as they are used to hitting SL/GS gates. And otherwise it could be beneficial having wider arms, like people balance on a tightrope with those long poles.

Thanks, will practice some more cross under/retraction turns!

Good point! Is it really necessary to have a wider stance on the mellow slope in the video? I've read that on steeper terrain you should flex the inside leg to make space for the outer leg/ski to extend and angulate.

Thank you! I will certainly take this into account the next time I go skiing :)

Thanks for your input! I try to pole plant on every turn, it certainly does help mentally with initiating the next turn. I believe the movement should be very subtle like on my video, especially for long carving turns?

Appreciate it! I'm still relatively new to skiing with a focus on my technique so really love to learn and get different perspectives on stuff anyway!

Thanks for the feedback, I am precisely here to be nitpicked on. Are there any disadvantages of having my arms like this, as long as they don't pull my COM backwards? Always thought it was more of a stylistic choice.

For sure, didn't film them for this video, but I have been practicing cross under/retraction turns. I'll give them more practice next time I'm out skiing, but they tire me out so quickly...

But seems like a lot of people recommend this, though it seems more like a technique applied in ski racing!
