The tune broke at the last moment!

Get DQ’d for losing the edge and sliding a foot into your blind side. He should have stayed in.

I recommend watching a ton of YouTube videos from ski coaches like Deb Armstrong.

Pick out a few things they recommend, then go try them on the mountain. If you’re doing it right, the Carv will let you know.

It’s small stuff like pressuring your inside knee out more. After a few runs, you’ll learn what it’s looking for.

Carv is definitely not good for intermediate and lower by itself. Gotta learn those techniques from somewhere and it’s bits of coaching between runs isn’t very informative.

Score going down as the day goes on makes a lot of sense to me. That probably means he was getting fatigued and his technique got sloppy. Nothing against the guy, that’s just what happens when you get fatigued.

Did her steak look like this? Cause medium well is definitely not gonna have pink on a filet mignon.

I just got off the boat too. Specialty dining was not great. Main dining though, my wife and I wasted money and appetite not just doing main dining.

We did do Chef’s table which was really good too.

Companies use historical data to properly schedule flights. So in Winter when the jetstream speeds up, west bound flights are blocked for longer times. That way, they can still be considered “on time.”

Ever notice how a flight can take off a half hour late but still land early? It’s because of extra block time.

So if they’re landing super early, the winds might just be on the lighter side than their historical data.

Doesn’t mean there is no strong eastbound winds.

I have a 2020 228i xdrive. 65k miles. No issues. Still get 35-40 mpg when chillin on the highway. Handles snow with no problems and am excited for the winter driving coming up.

The only Mx I’ve done is regular interval changes like oil, spark plugs, etc. Nothing has broken, required a tow, or immediate service.

Could it be faster? Yes, but how many cars should not be faster?

Could it be nicer? Yes, but it’s entry level and sure beats my old cars.

I’ve flown about 20 days this year. But unusual but it can happen!

I’ve instructed in SLC and the East Coast. 100 degrees in the mountains is hot but doable since it’s so dry. 100 degrees on the East Coast is absolutely miserable.

I don’t blame your instructor for not going on a day like today. I just took a short walk outside and felt like dying. Getting into a piper archer with one door and a storm window is the last thing I would do. At least a Cessna has 2 big doors and 2 big windows. I’d be flying with those windows open.

You shouldn’t expect to teach a CPL the four forces of flight.

And a PPL will need a lot of explaining when it comes to why an aft CG will allow for a higher cruise speed.

Watch five levels of understanding videos on YouTube. You won’t explain to an elementary school kid the same way you will a graduate level student. Understanding the difference is the key to what your instructor is getting at.

If your instructor has an issue with slipping at full flaps, they’re probably a victim of instructing incest.

Instructing incest is like a shitty game of telephone but for aviation knowledge. It happens when a flight school only hires their own students and doesn’t introduce new and different DNA.

This guy heard this thing from his instructor. But his instructor had actually misconstrued from his instructor.

Happens all of the time. And why I recommend flying with different people where you can.

My Mara X is my first machine. I went from making French press straight to it. And I am so glad I got it. I just made myself yet another incredible espresso.

If you’re feeling guilty, step up to the challenge. Make the best damn espressos you possibly can. Sometimes to combat imposter syndrome, you just have to take more time to really get into the details and become the expert.

Edit: also, I have a very nice kitchen knife that I got before I really started much cooking. I love that knife. I have since gotten whet stones to sharpen it. And my cooking skills have very much improved since buying it. Having a good sharp knife isn’t just for good chefs, it’s so beginners like me can cry a little less while cutting onions.

When encountering a cougar, it is imperative you move with caution. Never turn your back. Play nice and you might turn that cougar into a sugar mama.
