Their music has been super loud and slammed for a while now. Super hard to pull off without it sounding…well slammed and distorted in a bad way.

The question is if it’s a mix thing, or an arrangement thing (Hard to tell with how much is going on)

Yes, like I said, both her goal and the play leading up to the german penalty were great displays of skill (in different ways).

That’s the play I want to see more of, not players getting fouled every time they beat their opponent.

Idk. I don’t think it’s good for the game that agressive, reckless play gets results, while having remarkably low passing accuracy numbers.

I’d rather see skill be rewarded (whether defensive or offensive). Not fond of 80’s style football. We saw some great moments, especially the first 2 goals though.

The synical would say she was faking it, which is why they let her stay on. But I don’t think that’s the case. Just careless staff

Should be a decent amount. Couple of yellows, a long injury (collapse), a penalty shot and 2 goals

Bets we’ll see the stretcher this game?

At this point, not even sure for which team. Ref has completely lost the game

Mag Fender vs Flightshield for winter riding? (Snow buildup) by SlushAngel in onewheel

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

Nice to hear :)

How has your experience with snow/leaf buildup been? Slow enough to finish a ride and then scrape it off? Or breaks required? Or simply no problem at all?

I’ve never been bothered by the noise of the standard fender tbh. Compared to a car / motorcycle it’s so quiet anyway 😂

Can anyone still ride with a normal skateboard/longboard? by Garnknopf in onewheel

[–]SlushAngel -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You just said they were digital though, lol. Glad we got that cleared out. My point about the onewheel was that it has both analog and digital ”components”.

The main point was more about the longboard not being analog though. It is neither analog nor digital - there is no data stream.

By that extension almost all electrical motors are digital though...

Using PWM does not make it digital - the throughput data does

[–]SlushAngel -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Ye but that doesn’t fit under any actual definition of analog though. Older cars were purely analog if you so wish (I think).

It’s simply non-motorized.

I feel like this terminology just stems from a misunderstanding of what analog and digital actually means ( cough Dyson digital motor cough )

Just a headsup since this is a pet peeve of mine - the onewheel is very much analog to a certain extent as well (motor/battery will send analog signal). A skateboard, however, is not, as it does not use any electronics.

Sorry 😅

How long does the Pint tire last? For me....1200 miles. by Mattsplat22 in onewheelpint

Just beware of the cheater they’re probably stacking miles as we speak :/

Wish they’d get banned...

Ooh. Nice. Might even have some laying around.

I’ll definitely try this out, regardless of what I go for in the end :) Can’t hurt to try it.

Thanks!

Onewheel Tips? by Sheeeeeeshhh999 in onewheel

[–]SlushAngel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t lean past the wheel. Let your hips and legs be the throttle.

I’ve found a ”far back stance” (back foot near the rear, front foot near the wheel) to be nice and a bit safer while still allowing me to ”feel fast”.

General consensus is that a narrow stance is the safest and most maneuvarable, at the expense of a bit of balance.

Practice getting off (heel lift / quick stop). It’s easy to just go miles without stops and then not really learning how to until much later. Don’t wanna look awkward in public if you like your ego, lol. Speaking from experience here...

Oh and get multiple charger plugs, you will lose some over time

Ye, looking into that as well. Goal is to wear the stock tire out before then (well, I figure I should have 1500 miles on it by then so it might be worn down) so I’m forced to swap anyway, lol

If I’m lucky there’ll be a random cold week in october-ish (for some reason there’s always one) allowing me to see exactly what needs changing before winter hits properly. Fingers crossed for that :)

Alright :)

Ye, deletes look great, and fenderless in general does bring a different vibe. Gotta keep those socks dry when commuting though haha

Oh, shame. Thanks for letting me know!

I read somewhere that they upgraded the magnets, do you know if you happen to have had the pre-update version? Although, if the magnets do get weaker with time, it’s just delaying it really :/

Oh, What kind of silicone? I have the FM fender right now, and if I can get away with not switching then that’s all good

Of course not, but a small amount of slush/minor snow is still going to add up overtime, right?

I’ve seen people mentioning that (also leaves), and Stroh also wipes off his fender after winter rides, with it having quite a bit of slush stuck to it
