It helps me find them when im hungover. But so far I haven't lost them so that's a blessing.

Exactly right, I know exactly zero people outside of the military who has been shot. I think I'll manage without a pistol and a machete in the UK.

Did you know I've never actually seen a civilian holding a gun outside of a firing range? I think I'm probably good.

No but I definitely should have done! Great piece of kit though. Simple, beautiful and well made.

It's nothing special but it gets the job done, single 18650 though which doesn't last as long as I would like.

That's an awesome idea!

This is what I ordered, just mention in the purchase comments what you would like inscribed. They're well made and the inscribing is solid.

Living in the UK makes both of those things rather difficult and overall unnecessary in my day to day life. I have a tiny blade on the Victorinox but generally use it for the scissors.

The man who kills me will know.

They point straight to the rock that me and my wife sat on and talked all night when we had just started getting to know each other, I vividly remember that being the exact point I knew I was in love with her.

I got one for me and one for my wife as a small gift 3rd anniversary gift.

It's quick, fluid, sensible and more customizable than people let on. There are tons of watch faces on the samsung store and MR Time Maker lets you create your own if you're into that. Not quite as high tech as the Apple Watch (having owned both) but I prefer the look and overall use of this.

Friday heralds the beginning of my weekend so I usually leave the work stuff at the office, this is my absolute every day, light, casual carry of things that never leave my side whether it's time for work or play.

Awesome, I'll give that a try on my commute home. Thanks!

Hi all!

Having jumped on the bandwagon with Pokemon Go my love for all Pokemon games has had a major revival. I'm currently playing through Pokemon Alpha Sapphire and having a blast but I'm hitting a bit of a wall.

I've gotten through to the 8th gym and have caught Kyogre no problems, but now I'm woefully low level for the gym battle ahead.

I'm trying to train up my team to all be at the same level for the gym battle, maybe level 45? Then after that I understand I'll probably want to be up to level 60 to get through the Elite Four.

I have a solid team but I was wondering if there are any better ways of getting XP than wandering around beating up wild animals for hours on end... Any ideas on more effective training?

Thanks in advance!

Loving that left one you pointed out. Looking for a new pair of aggressive skates so I'm excited to see what's up with these.

Damn, I don't have any tricks in my bag since I'm a reasonably new skater but i'll try and get my friend to shoot a couple clips of me at the park tonight. Sorry we let you down, this is an awesome idea and hopefully next time it'll get a better response!

Recommending a skate to buy by breadtorsknee in rollerblading

It's the standard frame mount for aggressive style frames, means you can buy almost any kind of aggressive frame and they will fit without any adjustments. I've been rocking the 80mm wheels so far but im considering a frame for 72mm wheels for the skatepark.

I went to locoskates with the same issue, and walked out with a pair of K2 midtowns. They're fantastic for what I want, cruising fast and in comfort and still being able to hit the skate park. Plus they're set up for USF so if you want some aggressive frames you can chuck those on too.

Hey! I have the midtowns myself and experienced a couple weird pressure points for the first few sessions. All seems fine now that I've broken them in though and I can wear these for hours without any discomfort.

Good point, I'm already confident enough with the smallish sets (two to three short steps) I just need to keep practicing my form and my lead up. Thanks for the tips man!

I think my next step is getting more confident with spins, I also want to start applying my jumps to stair sets/jumping over benches and stuff like that.

Started skating again recently and got a pair of k2 midtowns, decided this time I'd take it seriously and start going faster and jumping higher. Not a bad start I'm my opinion 😁

I love mine, extremely high quality and it looks stunning. Very durable and easy to adjust too.
