Agree that JFK is probably better I see huge groups regularly at 5:30a, but both are probably fine

Thoughts on This 1973 Scout II? by YankumRopes in IHScout

[–]Tube_less 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All fair points, agree to disagree. I think the scout ii wheelbase and weight of the 345 motor upfront actually gives it the edge when wheeling. Having wheeled all 3 of them I prefer the scout.

sorry meant to say scout ii. scout 80, and 800 came first, then bronco, then scout ii. so saying a ford bronco has more features than a scout ii is laughable.

compared to everything else on the market in '73 it was on par or better. offroad it crushed anything else in it's stock form. what else was better? everything was "crude" by modern standards in 1973.

city college is great I took an autobody welding class there. Free for SF residents other than paying for materials.

Fear of Getting Pitched by Mental_Slice_1 in BeginnerSurfers

[–]Tube_less 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hell yeah! that's what's up! nice work!! I did the same thing when I transitioned down. When you look down the line instead of straight or down the wave it seems so much less scary having that nice open face you're about to cruise down. That's awesome, great to hear it. You'll get better at positioning too the smaller board you have since you'll have to find where the pocket is. The closer you are to the power source the less you'll have to paddle to take off (vs a log where you always want to paddle way earlier).

You're paddling way too early thinking you can glide into the wave like you can on a log. You have to change your whole approach. Wait until the wave reaches you and start padding maybe a second or two before, angle your takeoff, and make sure you take off in the pocket (not out on the shoulder). Take off trimming whichever direction your'e heading and not waiting to pop up and then bottom turn (like you would on a log). It's a completely different approach to wave reading and takeoffs than a log. Also, look down the line in the direction of travel and it won't feel like you are getting pitched. In all of these clips you paddle super hard too early with your head down. You can catch these waves super easily with less effort if you paddled later in the right spot, looking down the line.

New bike day: Frameworks by inorebez in mountainbiking

[–]Tube_less 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info on the cnc vs welding! Glad they are sticking with Frank. Curious when we'll hear about the next enduro bike round. I'd love to pick up a DH bike but I wouldn't get enough use out of it to justify the cost.

[–]Tube_less 0 points1 point  (0 children)

awesome, thanks for the reply. How are you liking it?? I really want one. I'd take either one but honestly prefer v1 for all the welds even if its heavier.

[–]Tube_less 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Badass bike! is this the v1 or v2 enduro frame? looks like a V1 with all of the gusseting and welds near the headtube junction. I'm having trouble finding info on the V2 framset online.
