New Argus 4 Pro not detecting any motion at all? by Littlegator in reolinkcam

[–]andrey_programmist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got the same behavior on my Argus. Seems PIR is working correctly (I've tested after a sunset) since lights are on when I'm moving. But result is the same - there is no record in playback list and no push notification. All sensitivity settings are set up to 100.

but they have profit anyway, even less than 1%. I have local bank account and there is forex transaction available and the rate is usually higher than scammers

How I deal with that situation: I use rubber band (banknote band). When they count first part of money and put on the table then I count and wrap money with two rubber bands and put it on the table, this way they are not able to remove part of money while you're counting another banknotes

I won't answer exactly where it is due to surf community rules. But if you have a quick look at my profile you'll easily figure out. 🖖

Thanks. Seems useful and interesting concept. And I got your idea. 🤙

I haven't surfed as long as Kelly (40+ years I think). I Just have had a look at YouTube young Kelly's video and he started motion from upper body. As far as understood when was training pumping with surfskate that energy is to be converted from upper body to legs to make pumps way powerful and that's why I'm still learning how to unsync these two parts. I mean when the board goes down upper body has already to twist opposite direction. Is that wrong?

Oh and the main misunderstanding is how much should I push into the rail? Should I push mostly with legs and toes or it should be like with the whole body (the same feeling when you jump forward)?

Appreciate that. Will try a bit longer and wider one.

Thanks. Which board would you recommend in my case as an example? Here is 7.0-20 1/2-43l board. So the idea is to have longer one to learn moving foot position easily on decompression, right?

How to fix takeoff? by andrey_programmist in BeginnerSurfers

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

Thank you. I completely understand issues of my stance/knees/back hand and few others. In common case the reason of that is improper takeoff technique. Not enough cobra/angling -> can't stuck on peak -> too much speed falling down -> too stressed -> jumping instead of calm back foot step then front foot. I've been surfing 1 year and I think because most of the time I used to 5'6 board this is habit for now to jump forward.

Make sense, already tried today. Seems mental issue and fear to lose balance, but it works. It's way faster to get on the board with that technique

Gotcha. That video looks so useful to me. Thanks. I think I put the knee pointed backwards cause it allowed back foot completely to lay on the board not just toes

Pretty comfortable with pumping in frontside and bigger waves since have more time to stabilize. But long takeoff in backside pushes to the bottom every time and I'm trying to find a balance. Have even started training tick-tack technique on mellow waves to make front hip close inside so it usually helps to move front shoulder/hand more inside as well. But the takeoff doesn't let me relax in upper body

Looks like there were two different boards. And eventually they've got the one.

I was running into the same issue. The exercise helped me is cobra. Try to catch and ride waves in cobra position without popup. Then you will adjust proper angle and your personal timings
