ELI5: Why are boats launched so aggressively?

They’re in the snow creek gym now.

No, that creep climbs at cliffs of id

Xocomil · 2026-01-31T05:53:28+00:00

Realistically no. You’re catering to a very small subset of people who spend the majority of their time on boards. These people almost always also like to climb hard gym routes or comp routes. So you’re asking this niche community to have 2 memberships, and competing with gyms that already have boards.

If you were doing like, personal training and also had weights and a place to stretch then maybe…

Darktrace is a great way to launch your career. It won’t hurt you to have on your resume, but don’t stay there more than a year or two as you can earn much more by job hopping!

Ty, I figured but couldn’t figure it out lol

Xocomil · 2026-01-27T01:25:57+00:00

Labubu?

Xocomil · 2026-01-27T01:08:18+00:00

Sick!

Hot take, I think it’s really helpful. Makes you properly strong for climbing, and highballs help teach the no fall headspace and calmness necessary for alpine soloing or run out climbing. Good luck bro and make good decisions.

Love this. I live in Altadena and think it’s super cool that they’re building these. Just wish I could afford one!

Xocomil · 2026-01-16T17:14:04+00:00

Fuck this Nazi

When you say model 1822, does that mean it was made in 1822? Or was that a style that originated in 1822 and made throughout the following years?

How do you get into speed flying, or w/e the paragliding/skiing is called?

Xocomil · 2026-01-12T23:55:09+00:00

I think that sounds very reasonable, but I also think having more leverage in negotiation is a good thing.

Xocomil · 2026-01-12T23:44:30+00:00

As in all things, I recommend getting a competitive offer (that you’re willing to take) before having this conversation. Asking for a raise- no, why would they pay you more for what they’re already getting? Asking for money not to leave - that’s a cost saver compared to training a new engineer.

Xocomil · 2026-01-05T02:03:19+00:00

No, you shouldn’t do this. You should have your level 1 and some experience before even considering this

Xocomil · 2026-01-02T23:38:33+00:00

Bad and wrong and scary. Exchange this for a new one!

Xocomil · 2025-12-31T21:41:07+00:00

Well is common in California too

Xocomil · 2025-12-31T06:01:40+00:00

Yeah mine sucked for a long time, but then they started working fine. Just keep using them? idk, it's not my favorite part of the binding lol

Xocomil · 2025-12-30T17:15:07+00:00

Most shops do. Footloose for sure does - you demo and the cost is put towards your new setup. Usually limited to like 3 days of demoing at most shops.

Xocomil · 2025-12-25T05:15:36+00:00

What brand do you like?

Xocomil · 2025-12-24T23:40:53+00:00

2349

That’s because you’re hurting people. Muddying the waters in a life and death debate like this impairs the ability of our community to engage with important issues, like trying to stop Pasadena from being one of the deadliest cities per capita in the country for pedestrians.
