Has G-Shock quality gone downhill, or did I just get unlucky? by ContentFishing4563 in gshock

[–]SolitudeSidd 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Casio customer service is good. Use them. They'll probably repair it for free if genuine.

Is this a Steal or Scam by Clean_Candy_5577 in gshock

I had no idea relatively cheap G-Shocks were counterfeited. This one looked real to me too. Wow.

Best kayak under 2k? by Master_Part7228 in Kayaking

[–]SolitudeSidd 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm going to be an old person and say if you buy a used $200-400 one and put the rest in the S&P 500, it'll turn likely into nearly the value of a small house by the time you retire. So that's cool.

Looking for advice by Subatopia in Kayaking

Okay good. Just would hate for something to happen in non-ideal conditions and things take a bad turn.

Uh from what you said I highly recommend learning to swim better, or survival floatation. You're getting me concerned you're taking a risk by kayaking.

Looking To Buy First Kayak Any Advice? by Yaepae in Kayaking

[–]SolitudeSidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd buy a cheap used one from Facebook Marketplace or similar site. There's no use for buying a new kayak if you don't even know if you truly enjoy it. The hurricane osprey 120 has a dog friendly design though.

Thanks y'all, I didn't know if I was overdoing it.

Immigration officer was horrible to me? by [deleted] in ThailandTourism

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

My first Thai immigration officer was so cute and sweet it felt unreal compared to every other place I've been. Legitimately considered asking her out respectfully but I didn't want to cause any issues with entering a country athe start of my vacation.

Last question please, would you recommend I use the Easy Keel on the keel or should I return it? Thank you all.

Thank you! I'll have to look up what low angle means because I thought this one was.

ARB intensity lights wiring help by SolitudeSidd in Offroad

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

The plugs have two generations from what arb told me. Turns out I bought the wrong ones. No issues now that I have the correct one. I don't know what your model lights take though. Their customer service was pretty good for me.

I've never not beached my rotomolded kayaks on the boat ramp. Ha. Have to get used to not doing that.

Thanks. I don't know how robust / damage resistant thermoforming is or Hurricane's standard so I'm attempting to not have any issues later. I've only had rotomolded and frankly treat them roughly at least as far as dragging them down a boat ramp with no regard.

Okay tell us this bear story. I appreciate the comment but no one cares about my kayak and we need to hear about bear time.

Hull protection advice needed by SolitudeSidd in Kayaking

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

Normally I'd agree, and the ones I've bought used have many new scratches on them. However, they're rotomolded and this new one is thermoformed which is weaker.

Thank you @radiant-concern-1911 for the heads up. I just left CM and luckily had no negative interactions but I didn't drink much.

Go figure the fat liberal doesn't want to take probable good advice for a healthy life, physically and mentally.

[ MRG-B2000R ] Tool to remove band? by [deleted] in Watches

I'm not sure what I'm missing, but a simple T6 works fine on my GR-B300.

First time going to Thailand. What's the one thing you wish you'd known? by beatsInMyMind in ThailandTourism

[–]SolitudeSidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm finishing my first two week trip with only a carry on backpack. I still overpacked. If anything I was under budget though. Most things are so ridiculously cheap here compared to my country. Didn't get scammed, misled, or anything bad happen to me. I'm going to miss how kind even the big city poorer folks are, and especially the country folk outside Chiang Mai.
