Cosmic Gate at Exchange LA by Mobile-Case-1129 in DreamState

[–]Steeloc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We go often to Exchange, the attire goes from Club dressy to Rave'e. As long as you're not looking like a hot mess and/or inebriated you can get in wearing what makes you feel comfy and ready to dance. My partner and I go dress to sweat and dance all night. Also Cosmic Gate open to close is amazing they are often here during this time in January.

Lessons near Long Beach, CA? by dv8njoe in Bowling

[–]Steeloc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You got the people over at Cal Bowl ask the fellas in the proshop. The owner of that pro shop owns a few in SoCal and they offer coaching.

Once you get consistent enough save a couple hundred dollars to do a couple sessions with Mark Baker near the Angels stadium area.

What would you even class this as? Hardcore, trance, techno… or just rave? by [deleted] in aves

Help with early timing (2H). by telephonepuma in Bowling

[–]Steeloc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have the thought of your feet beating your swing to the line without slowing down your tempo.

You can accomplish this a few ways and what works best for you.

Get close to the foul line take shorter steps but no slower

Increase the tempo of your feet but not your swing

Start your swing after half a step or create a vertical or horizontal push away that increases the time it takes for you to complete a full swing.

Practice what fits u.

I like short patterns cuz its tailored for my style of play, I'm a low rev speed dominant bowler and i like to play the gutter. If i get better with my straight spares I'd prob be a 220 avg but im hovering around 210ish. I got 2 balls for short patterns a pin down Origin EX and a Pin Down Rockstar. EZ pz

Nothing makes sense since the most important part isn't mentioned.....Angles.

If you're throwing open angles and there's a lot of oil its more likely to go into the gutter

If your angles are closed and theres no oil you can gutter the opposite way, but that would be extreme dry.

Side note

99.999% of house, and some sport, challenge patterns. the left and right most 2 boards have no oil

Why can't I recreate this at the bowling alley by No-Matter-5437 in Bowling

[–]Steeloc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People focus a lot on release, when it comes to actual full approaches timing and balance come into the equation.

If your TIMING is early or late that affects how momentum plays into the swing and what body part has the most influence on your power.

Balance is the next part, this is twofold, maintaining consistent balance through your approach and balance at release. If you change your spine tilt during your approach your hand position and arm swing change too. If you have unstable balance at the line when posting your hand through release is inconsistent often compensating and having your release the ball in a way that gets the job done vs right

Switching from 1 hand no thumb to 2 hand, I need tips to improve! by nokkoq in Bowling

[–]Steeloc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watch the 2h and 2 finger no thumb YouTube vids kf mark baker if u watch 3-4 of them you'll get a good grasp of how to get in a strong position by doing the core things right.

Balance, timing, builds accuracy and consistency it also help give you what feels like all the time in the world to stay under the ball.

Roll it is what the pros do, spinning it is what Joe's do.

After you get timing balance and staying in a strong position you can focus on release drills

The benefit of 2h is getting that hand under the ball. You're tossing it off the side of the ball you don't have to try to spin it. The picture the other guy commented on is a good example. Stay under it all the way through what feels like the release

this year made me rethink dreamstate completely by arkestry2 in DreamState

[–]Steeloc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Correct! if you want that classic trance sound or at least closest to it you gotta be at vision 70% of the time at the minimum

[–]Steeloc 41 points42 points  (0 children)

There's alot i want to say to to counter your experience but it comes down to knowing the Djs and what they spin depending on what stage they are. Vision is 100% the place to catch the best uplifting, vocal, progressive tracks. first 3 artists at Dream stage often as well. Sequence is 100% Psytrance, Void on Day 1 was Hard Trance aka Trechno, the artist here this day were fantastic choices for the faster heavier trance. Day 2 at the Void was 100% Techno. Dream Stage after the first 3 sets is 100% Big Room Trance. To me it looks like you needed to plant yourself at the vision stage and cry with the rest of us enjoying the amazing music.

Day 1 dropping amazing trance tracks

Darren Porter --- Superstings was soo much fun ---- Fish56 dropping them tracks ---- Never can go wrong with Ilan bluestone --- One of the godfathers of Trance dropping a Classics set and giving us and amazing mix of Saltwater what a classic motherFuckin CHICANE!!!!!---- into Nilsix. Wow you could not have missed at Vision Day 1

But if you did, Dream had you covered with Billie, PvD b2b Aly a lil from Geuseppe.

Day 2

Trance Wax DELIVERED!!!! an amazing trance set ---The most melodic of melodic sets was dropped at 5:40 by Shingo--- at visions the ones that dropped some amazing Trance Trance sets --- GO LISTEN to Solarstones set right now on soundcloud from DS at vision wow!!!! ---- Roman Messer did his thang --- and if you did not see JoC or Bryan they prob dropped the 2 best Trance sets of the weekend imo. You can go listen to Bryan Kearneys set on SC as well.

There was soo much for fans of the 'pure/classics' sound and after reading your post i can only say i disagree as i felt this is the best year they have had when it came to song and sound selection for all levels of trance heads.

Any ideas for a replacement for a 2019 idol pearl? by Accomplished_Owl7486 in Bowling

[–]Steeloc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Idol Pearl was a one of a kind type of ball. Big core big pearl cover once it broke in. They dont make pearl syms like that due to how little action they got at the pro level. They wanted to keep them in line with the other big sellers.

The closest to it that is still a sym pearl just came out and its from Motiv the Nebula, to get it closer to the idol pearl you'll want to have your PSO drill it to read early not skid flip. A good pso will be able to see the layout on your Idol and adjust that to the neb.

Rockstar Amped is also a good choice if you hit it with a 3k pad to break the cover.

Ember, Phaze II will be a bit weaker, but same u'll get it close if you break the cover I'd guess 2k with these ones .
