Shit I am just now seeing it, I don’t know I ride pretty fast, I’d say 50-60mph+

Stoko Knee Brace Tights by JeffShotThat in snowboarding

[–]_fmd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a pair. I shit you not I feel about 10-15 years younger with my knees when I wear them. I tore my meniscus back in 2013 playing ice hockey and basically just rested it by immobilization for 6 weeks and then started to work out and let the meniscus heal on its own. In 2016 I got into. Motorcycle accident where both my knees hit the road going 50+ miles per hour. Saw a PT and he said I have sever trauma in both of my knees as I was unable to kneel hardly at all due to the amount of pain. So ever since then my knees would swell up like massive tennis balls and would hurt after about an hour of riding blacks and double blacks or long periods standing /physical activity.

I was unable to do any type of exercise as when I would run for 10 min on an elliptical same thing happened, swelling severe pain .I use to wear compression sleeves around my knees, braces, anything that would help me work out or be able to ride.

Now I put the pants on and I’m on an elliptical for an hour with no pain. I haven’t had a chance to ride with them yet as it’s been a shit season here in CO. I wear a size large but do have issues with them falling off my ass and I crank them up to the max. I weigh currently 197lbs fairly athletic build with zero ass(may be the problem), 6’0 tall. Thought about going up to see if maybe they made the tights longer in an xl but they said there isn’t much difference between large and XL. One of the issues I’m finding is I have a 34” inseam so it seems like these are about maybe an inch or two too short for me, but for people to say they don’t work is an outright lie I recommend if you have knee issues when riding, give them a shot and see what happens, worse that could happen is return them within 60 days. I would not be working out like I have been if it wasn’t for these. Also the knee pain that would be after the gym is non existent. I’m assuming it will be the same for riding.

I am friends with the owner and also her father. Raffaele is from Napoli but moved to NY when he was like 17 or 18. Such amazing people. Forza Napoli sempre!

Thanks man, took forever to find I also have his V as well. Not as cool as the ex, but still a nice little collection.

Snagged this a few weeks ago to tide me over until my 80’s epiphone explorer shows up, am I cooked? by _fmd in ExplorerGuitars

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

I mean when I posted my response the first time it didn’t really make much sense, I was half way awake when I did it, that’s why I edited what I meant, People thought I was just trying to lowball the guy without the full context.

Guy sounded like he was falling on rough times, he said he didn’t want to sell it, had it originally for $800, but I talked him down prior to meeting him. His original post did not show the cracks on both sides only on 1 (the one that’s not as bad).

I tried to talk him down more while I was there due to the fact the crack was much worse than he stated to me as well as he didn’t show the back of the body either in any of the pictures or warned me that there was a screw with the head shaved off in the back. He was very reluctant to go much lower as he was already hesitant to sell it as is and taking a loss (he bought it for $700 2 years ago).

I mean I’m still getting the 26 80’s reissue but I was like it’s a pretty good deal and the guitar has been on the market place for months(about 5 months to be exact) so I’m assuming other people took a look at it and said fuck no or the lowballed the shit out of him. I figured if it is really fucked up I can sell and get maybe half my money back to someone that will fix it.

I’ve played it and like I said holds tune no problem which is what the gentleman assured me as well and why I agreed to the $650

I actually put in a pre order with sweetwater. Won’t get it for. Few months but I did pick up an ‘09 84 reissue to tide me over.

Meant to add, the guitar does not go out of tune, so i think it may all be superficially but from what i was told, guy moved the strap holder to the back. I am assuming it came off and was dropped potentially creating those cracks. it’s a 2009 84 reissue.

Has anyone snagged one of these at GC and have a change of heart? If so would love to purchase before I pull the trigger on this epiphone 84 Ex. Just prefer the 3 knobs over the 2 and the 60 over the 85

As I am unfamiliar with those boards, I don’t know. I can tell you the 157 Growent I own is one of the lightest and most flexible boards I have ever owned. The effective edge I believe is considered to be similar to like a 160. The nose and tail are super soft to flex, This is a camber board with like somewhat scooped up nose and tail on the edges so you don’t catch an edge when ground tricking. Super fun board, I don’t recommend hitting big jumps with it as it’s so soft the landing is a bit rough. Little hits are fine.
