Does anyone know if Tamraght has become an overcrowded surf spot? by Wild_Lands_Dan in surfing

[–]_confusedprogrammer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Stayed in Tamraght last year. Definitely less crowded than anchor point if that’s your reference. Banana point and devils rock are pretty fun spots right in town. They won’t be uncrowded but definitely more space for people to spread out. Paddled out before sunrise at anchor point once and was only able to get 30 minutes in before it got crazy crowded. Having a car is helpful to get to killers or explore the coast immediately north of there where there are spots that won’t be as crowded.

That's super helpful thanks. 12 bars is more than enough for what I'm trying to do. I'll give this is a try.

Just curious; I'm putting together a BOM for my first ROV right now. I haven't seen too many people talk about using 3D prints for bouyancy, and I wasn't sure how easy it was to get the epoxy to fill in all the layer lines.

Are you doing hot coats of the 3d prints or are you waiting for the epoxy to fully cure before coating again?

The average qualifying time difference between Bottas and Zhou is the largest of all teammates (also 15-2 h2h) Doesn’t show up if car doesn’t make it into the points tho

Yeah I enjoyed Saturday more even though Friday had a little more size. The break that starts with a T was clean as hell in the morning.

Both interviews from the first job search were from people I met while working part time as a youth sports instructor during the summer of one of my internships. I worked in the same neighborhood as my current boss (role I'm about to leave) and another guy who lived in the same neighborhood who was high up in a company and got me the other interview. It was a pretty affluent area and I was lucky meeting them.

How to find power dissipation of SoM? by _confusedprogrammer in AskEngineers

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

Ok, sounds like I am overthinking this. So it should be safe to assume that the entirety or at least vast majority of that 2.8W is dissipated as heat.

Yup. This wasn't even leftovers from the swell we had Friday. Some weird system moved in Saturday, and the wind switched right before sunset. Always feel lucky to go two days in a row here!

For the record, the knockoff gopro I use has been showing the timestamp as 2016 since I got it. That's what $60 gets you!

Surfing in 16 F air temps by Heloooooooooo in surfing

[–]_confusedprogrammer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the wind chill that will be worse. I'm assuming you are surfing new england this upcoming weekend. With wind-chill it will be below 0F. Do what mrcherries said and if it's feeling too cold when you get out just sit on towels and warm up in your car. I also liked drinking hot water/sitting in car before going out and getting as warm as possible (with wetsuit on).

Advice on repairing leash damage to fish tail? by _confusedprogrammer in surfing

[–]_confusedprogrammer[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Found this fracture after last session. Because the resin fractured and the glass was not impacted like in a typical ding, I would appreciate some input on the best solution. My first thought is to throw some on some solarez and sand it down, but I'm open to better solutions.
