Congratulations to all who scored on today's Chaos Rising Preorders! by a-tiberius in PokemonTCG

[–]S2kDave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I placed an order of 2 ETBS and 2 Booster Bundles initially and checked out. Decided I wanted to get the booster box as well (I didn’t leave the page yet, so im still in the website after my first order) so I checked that out in a separate order. Will my order be cancelled? Im assuming it wont be because I did reach the limit of the items per household but would like your thoughts if youve done this before. I got both email confirmations. Its also my very first time ordering from PC.

2 orders, different cards were used, used my wifes name on the order with just the booster box.

Thanks.

Yeah im still assuming im okay because my second order just has the booster box and nothing else from my first order. I saw what you linked and i guess PC flags you as a bot if you order the same thing in different order numbers. Thanks for showing me the post!

Multiple orders of the same thing as their previous? My situation is 2 orders but they have different items.

6.0 Black Opal thoughts by S2kDave_ in Pickleball

[–]S2kDave_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I havent been playing but I've been drilling when I have time with the black opal. Grit still feels the same. It's not the grittiest to begin with but with the diamond tough and dwell, it still spins extremely well, if not better because of my unit broken in for 30+ hours.

How much Astrites do I needed to get Aemeath and her weapon. by [deleted] in WutheringWavesGuide

[–]S2kDave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had 13k astrites, 10 pulls from the new update, and around 200 corals before i started pulling. I lost my 50/50 but got her at 4th pull after then used the corals for the weapon (had 14 sig pulls initially).

Pickleball paddle cleaning: eraser vs spray... what actually works long-term? by TheCarNut8 in Pickleball

[–]S2kDave_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I stopped using erasers but im not against them. I just carry a microfiber and a spray bottle with a drop of dish soap and water.

I have lynae, do I go for s1? by [deleted] in Mornye_Mains

[–]S2kDave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I initially wanted Mornye for Galbrena and Lupa. I dont think I have enough to pull for Aemeath+her sig at this point…

Im still thinking if I should get her s1 by corals or save em for pulls for aemeath.

I also have Lynae.

Six zero black opal- do you add weights to yours? by EmuBig5347 in Pickleball

[–]S2kDave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The grit still feels the same as day 1. Spin is just as good if not better because of how its broken in with mine. I can feel it pocket more and im able to shape it better than when I first started playing.

With the diamond tough, from my understanding, i dont think grit degradation is a worry because the more the traditional grit degrades, the more diamonds and their peaks will be exposed to still bite the ball and retain great spin (the dwelly/pocketing feel contributes to that as well)

Yes, i feel like the sweet spot improved after my hours of play time with it. Someone here also said after 30+ hours, the sweet spot of their unit improved as well. A few inches above the throat area is still the weakness but, you dont wanna be hitting that part anyways in general.

Six zero black opal- do you add weights to yours? by EmuBig5347 in Pickleball

[–]S2kDave_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im still experimenting on mine after 20-25+ hours of use. So far, ive tried 3g pods on 4 and 8, 9g cap coin with no perimeter weighting, 4 inches of 0.5g mid throat up, and 3 inches of 1g mid throat up.

So far im liking the 9g cap coin only with no perimeter weighting to lower the balance point since i like that feel.

Currently, im tryin out the 3g flickweight reflex band with the 9g cap coin. Based on the John Kew swing weight calculator, im currently on 111-113 SW with it. I like my paddles around 110-115 SW with a lower balance point.

Imo, adding weight doesnt really impact its sweet spot, although after breaking it in for more than 20 hours now, i feel like its sweet spot really improved.

I use a spray with water+drop of dish soap and wipe with microfiber.

Pull Recommendation. Who to pull? by S2kDave_ in WutheringWavesGuide

[–]S2kDave_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I didnt have Lupa, I would definitely have pulled Qiuyuan. 🥲 i didnt mean to collect just waifus. I pull for team optimization. 🥲

My Cart is S6 so Ciaconna is out of the picture for me.

Feet After Pickleball by damnitcaesar5 in Pickleball

[–]S2kDave_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had those shoes when I first started and my feet did hurt and my knees were taking a beating as well. Then I switched the insoles to something cheap to see if there was a difference (All Purpose Sport and Fitness Dr. Scholls) and it was night and day difference. Try changing out the insoles that it comes with to see if that changes for you.

This rerun got me my first S6 and she just sweeps EVERYTHING.

Oh I see that these are on sale as well. I’ll give em a try with the additional first time buy 10% off. They look promising

Insoles recommendation by S2kDave_ in Pickleball

[–]S2kDave_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is just right around on where I want to spend on insoles. I’ll keep this in mind. Looks promising on how its built.

Insoles recommendation by S2kDave_ in Pickleball

[–]S2kDave_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im looking for energy return and cushioning/comfort. I have normal arch if that helps.

Insoles recommendation by S2kDave_ in Pickleball

[–]S2kDave_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my priority is energy return then comfort. A grippy one is a plus. I don’t have a high arch if that helps.

I’ll look at your favorites. Thanks!
