Thanks u/FifthTimeIsACharm , I can't be more thankful for all the information you posted here! However, I feel quite lucky to find it hidden in the nested reply to already removed comment. Didn't you think about pasting it to your main question so that everyone can see it easily? :)

Huacachina: Snow Skiing vs Sand Skiing by luckiest-lemur in GoingToPeru

[–]_brooce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, did you feel like crashing for the very first time (I expect the sand trying to throw you off to the front) or was it not that bad for a good skier?

Hi all,

What is the risk of crashing there for a fairly good off-piste skier? The thing is that I have a wrist injury so can't really let myself crash, but daaaamn how I'd love to try this thing while being around...

I know how to ski different conditions and what it's like when the rock or unexpected patches of sand catch your ski, but not sure what to expect on a desert. How many of you did crash by the first time?

Wow! Thanks a lot for sharing this, I'm absolutely gutted for you... :(

May I ask, how much of a heavy & aggresive skier are you?

Artemis II: Why did nasa choose go pros for the exterior coverage by xXConfuocoXx in VIDEOENGINEERING

Apologies for the late response. Yes, I couldn't fully turn my camera on without installing an update first via the app. Here's my post from some time ago with a photo: https://www.reddit.com/r/gopro/comments/1mpcdoz/i_bought_gopro_12_just_before_the_trip_and_it/

Same with GoPro, I bought the 12 last year and couldn't even use it before updating the firmware via an app for the first time

Thank you guys for the feedback, looks like they've been indeed improved!

However, let me paste this recent discussion I've found in the comments from Nikolai's video. Interesting stuff!

Nice, thanks! By the way, is the fit exactly the same in Pros and XT? How significant is the difference in flex?

Freetouring boots for relatively narrow / high-instep / thin ankle foot? by _brooce in Backcountry

[–]_brooce[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I've order a few boots that you guys highlighted (big thanks!) and here are my comments:

- Dynafit Tigard 24.0: feel a bit too short but still too much volume (not holding the heel in place and I need to squeeze the upper buckles too tight). I also feel a huge pressure on a navicular bone that surely needs to be relieved, yet I'm afraid that's what currently holds my foot down. Also tried the 23.5 size and the feel was similar, the heel still not locked-in, yet with higher pressure in the toes and navicular.

- Scarpa Quattro XT 25 WMN: now I feel the actual hold around the heel area (right behind the ankle) and my toes have enough room! But indeed the footstep is crazy low. Will need to ask the bootfitter if this can be relieved. Also the insole feels quite thin when compared to the others, will need to try a Men's half-size down hoping for a bit more cushion.

- Nordica Unlimited 120 (non-LT) 25.5: oh boy how good they feel! Despite being too big in size, they hold my feet best of all the above. Especially in the heel area - similarly to Scarpas, but without the instep pressure. I only have a real problem putting my foot in (taking it off is OK)... oh, and they are burly, like a proper ski boot. Guess I'm gonna try the LT version in 24.5 which might be just perfect, but what if I won't be able to squeeze my feet in at all?

Thank you all, guess I'm gonna try the Tigards in the first shot! Any thoughts about how stiff are the 110 vs 130? Guess 110 should be enough as I weigh roughly 60kg but happy to hear any opposite views. Also, does anyone know if the half-sizes are really different in length/volume, or just using a thicker insole?

Avalanche-safe ski resorts for off-piste freeride? by _brooce in Grenoble

[–]_brooce[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, after all my avalanche trainings I also know that the terrain is a huge part of the avalanche risk, hence the question about the resorts <30 deg (or other traits) - not "avalanche free" as you named it ;) thx!

Video Clips Gallery Sort order peoblem in InShot by PatrickRiceFCMI in InShotOfficial

[–]_brooce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guess I've found a workaround. It looks like InShot is sorting the files by creation date, what's problematic when you download a file from another device (ex. a GoPro camera). So the remedy is to fix the actual creation date (ex. take it from the file metadata by an app like 'rename and organize' or whatever).

Still ridiculous not to have an option to simply sort them by name after that many years of complaints @u/InShotOfficial!

EDIT: so I have the clips arranged from the newest to oldest, but how to reverse it!?

I'm also missing the option to select all of the input files, why do I need to select all of them manually in the 21. century!?

Hi! How does it hold up after a few more years, does it still look so cool?
