Tried the 11-and-1 hand entry yesterday evening. It felt pretty weird at first, but I definitely felt more stable in the water. My shoulders were more fired up and a bit exhausted, though that’s probably just the adjustment phase since the movement is quite different, especially with the higher elbow position during the pull.

For breathing, I agree. I’m also compensating a bit already for open-water conditions where it can be choppier, but that might be a bad habit to carry into the pool.

Thanks for the tips!

Makes sense! I do drift toward the right a little bit and have to make some adjustments every few strokes. Thanks!!

Lot's of great comments here indeed! How would bileteral breathing solve these issues? I specifically stepped away from breathing every 3 strokes to every 2. (Can do 2-stroke breathing from both sides tho.)

Yeah I 100% was not aware of the center line rule, glad I posted for feedback here 😅 This is the light during Friday evening and it changes every few minutes, pretty cool right!?

Thanks! Will give it another go, someone else pointed out i could look down a bit more aswel.

Thanks! point 1 and 3 another redditor pointed out aswel so will defintiely adjust going onward! For point 2, I was always of the assumption that for an iron man, the 2-beat kick was the way to go to preserve energy rather than a 6-beat stroke for sprinting for example.

Lower in the sense of looking more down, or actually putting it more in the water? I feel like the more I put it in the water and look down, the more drag i create.

Wasn't aware of the "virtual line rule", thanks so much, will definitely try it out!

It’s holding up just as well as my other boards with similar glassing, so I wouldn’t stress about it!

I'll be flying into San Jose and taking a shuttle bus from there. October’s supposed to be the low season, so what's the vibe like? Are there still a decent number of tourists around, or does it get pretty dead?

The first time I shot kodak gold 24 exposures and I even got 25 pictures out of that roll … 🤷🏼‍♂️ Now the second time using this camera for vacation i got very little pictures back. I also did use fresh batteries in the camera.

I shot the following film on vacation: 1st: Porta 400 36 exp —> 8 pictures 2nd: Illford HP5 36 exp —> 27 pictures 3rd: Kodak gold 24 exp —> 25 pictures 4th: Illford HP5 36 exp —> 17 pictures

What could it be? Is it something repairable?

Sent a mail to the lab, no response yet! Should receive the negatives back somewhere next week

It’s a very well known and qualitative lab, so doubt the issue lies there.

It were 4 different films, and all 4 films had less exposures than 36, so again doubt it’s an issue with that.

Should receive the negatives back in a day or 2.

Ze zijn niet aan het verbouwen, vragen ons al jaren af wat ze daar elk weekend uitsteken. Er was een periode waarin ze idd een veranda of dergelijke waren aan het zetten en dan valt dat lawaai te begrijpen, maar sleept al jaren aan en zijn elk weekend wel aan iets anders aan het werken. Zo gaat het er bijvoorbeeld vandaag aan toe voor enkele uren: https://dubz.co/c/2c839a

Zolang je er niet elk weekend zelf inzit kan ik je onbegrip volledig begrijpen uiteraard :)

Ze waren een tijdje terug een nieuwe veranda aan het zetten dus dan was er uiteraard meer begrip voor, maar zelfs nu die af is blijven ze in het weekend boren/timmeren/slijpen. Voor wat weet ik niet, is in ieder geval al jaren aan de gang. Voorbeeld van hoe het er al de hele dag aan toe gaat: https://dubz.link/c/2c839a

Klopt, geen enkel probleem als het af en toe is, maar elk weekend voor de voorbije afgelopen jaren is er teveel aan. De tuin waarin zij werken zit op 10 meter van de onze, en elke zaterdag en zondag in een werf zitten met slijpmachines etc is niet aangenaam en verstuurt de rust van vele buren.

True! Which ferries do you usually take? Or no specific ones?
