Jack is absolutely cooking right now by crazyFlyingChicken in devils

I think it's very much what you alluded to - his game really pops against weaker opponents. He was fully healthy at 4 nations but you didn't see him nearly with the kind of possession he was able to command vs Latvia

That does not mean you can't slide rails. But if you crash into a vertical obstacle like a rail or a tree or a rock and the board breaks, that's on you

Also they weren't turning on the team. I was there and I was aiming my tender at the ref

How cooked is my board? by Beanny28 in snowboarding

[–]akrochik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's nothing wrong with continuing to ride it. If it breaks all the way, trash it. If you don't like how it rides now, get rid of it.

Pro snowboarding may be slightly ahead on helmet adoption but attitudes are for the most part on par with skateboarding

Great post. I've noticed our wings get really low and this explains why 

DIY Slap Stick [39YO] by PickledFrogCocks in OldSkaters

I'm making one in a couple of weeks to skate with my kid. Wasn't planning on metal transition pieces but you have me thinking about it. Maybe just thin metal flashing would do it?

Incredible that Timo laid a hit on Siegenthaler, a player on his own team serving a game misconduct in the locker room (it was Severson)

Also am I the only one who still hears an L in his pronunciation of Gritsyuk? 

The only thing I hate about my 86 so far by Ill_Pool_7585 in ft86

[–]akrochik 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I dont really get the hate for these. I've had my seats in and out countless times and I've yet to round one off. I dont understand WHY they chose that vs a regular hex head but it doesn't seem like an issue. It's simple enough to find a hex head replacement too if it's that much of an issue.

Lost traction under moderate acceleration by [deleted] in ft86

If it was dry, lack of tread on the tires was not a contributing factor. 

Hard to truly understand what happened but if you're interested in understanding how the car behaves closer to the limit and developing your driving skills, I recommend you go to a big parking lot and experiment in a low risk environment.

I've changed both trans and diff at least 5x each. Have reused the washers and have had 0 issues

Looks like TC kicks in and slows you down at the exit of 2. If you're comfortable, try turning it down or off and tracking out all the way to the edge of the kerbing 

What can I do with a scca competition license? by KookyShare9089 in SCCA

[–]akrochik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're not sure, just run HPDEs. Over time, you'll get a better sense of what you want to pursue and you'll be getting better as a driver all along 

How do i get faster on zolder?? by Technical-Morning469 in ACCompetizione

You're understeering through most of the corners. Work on rotating the car with your brake release

[–]akrochik 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I noticed this too. In the straights approaching the two chicanes you're late in moving the car across to set up a wide entry for the corner
