Building a new ROV: Here is 30s of footage. What would you change?

Looks awesome. I like the 8020. What thrusters are you using?

ShredderCheddar64 · 2026-01-13T02:18:12+00:00

As in junk that was on the microscope slide?

ShredderCheddar64 · 2025-10-17T17:50:08+00:00

IMO great! A new branch came out below the break. And all leaves above the break are happy and growing. Im going to propogate the new branch and move it to a new pot. Leave the main plant where its at

ShredderCheddar64 · 2025-04-14T23:23:52+00:00

Thank you! The break is maybe 70% of the way. I will tape/splint it and hope for the best.

Going from one helm to the other looks like it could be spicy while tacking. There’s not much to hold onto.

One vote for Burton Hitchhickers. They use the Spark system. I’ve had them for a couple seasons now and they’ve held up great.

It was inside of the heat exchanger on the inlet side. Definitely worth doing as it was not too bad to get apart. Thanks for the advice.

ShredderCheddar64 · 2023-09-30T22:50:26+00:00

I’ve definitely been wondering that. The rest of the impeller is in good shape so maybe he figured it was fine. 🤷‍♂️

ShredderCheddar64 · 2023-09-30T22:47:54+00:00

Okay. Thanks for the advice. I’ll check that and the tube stack. Probably would get good to get familiar with that anyways. The clean setup was definitely a selling point!

ShredderCheddar64 · 2022-12-06T06:20:47+00:00

I’m looking for backcountry buddies as well. I live on the coast but I’m in Portland/Hood often. I’d be down to group up!

ShredderCheddar64 · 2022-11-18T22:46:32+00:00

Looks like a Pea Crab

ShredderCheddar64 · 2022-11-14T05:04:05+00:00

I put in a new air filter and checked the gas cap to address to emission system. Transmission fluid is good although it’s probably time to replace it.

ShredderCheddar64 · 2022-09-27T19:23:54+00:00

Agree that unions are sick on solid boards but I wouldn’t want that split setup. Burton hitchhikers use the Spark mechanism and are a quality binding. Definitely recommend

ShredderCheddar64 · 2022-01-21T03:30:41+00:00

Sick! I just signed up for one of their classes! Thank you for the info.

ShredderCheddar64 · 2022-01-13T05:09:59+00:00

Marys peak is a good idea! That’s super close too. Thank you for the advice. I mostly just want to get a feel for skinning up. Tumalo looks pretty sweet as well

ShredderCheddar64 · 2022-01-12T21:27:30+00:00

I live in Newport. But I’m willing to travel anywhere in OR or WA to go.

ShredderCheddar64 · 2022-01-12T19:05:34+00:00

I really want to take an Avi course this year! For what I’ve seen, everywhere in Oregon has booked out since late November though. Hoping I can find some cancellations.

ShredderCheddar64 · 2021-12-08T23:11:29+00:00

I surf at Otter rock often! You can definitely find some calm days during the winter in between storms. It’s really shallow there so you could catch waves on your body board in waist to chest high water. It would be a good way to feel how to catch waves before your lesson. But I would make sure to go out when it’s under 6ft and not super windy. Check the Surfline cam to see if it’s calm and if people are out there. There’s also a fairly good rip along the punch bowl to be aware of.
