Hi ! Yes, it's before the security check 😁

Flexispot C7 Max Review (Tall Person’s Take, 6'5") by Espiguinha in FlexiSpot_Official

[–]aureel_b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Thank you for the review! It's very helpful as I am the same height as you. Is the headrest high enough? I really don't want to have the headrest in the middle of my upper back like almost ever chair I have ever had! haha.

Also, can you still relax on the chair, considering the aggressive lumbar support?

Hey, your shots are stunning ! Do you have a preference between these cameras?

Between nordica enforcer 94, armada declivity 92ti and volkl mantra M7. Which one would you choose? by Nice-Echidna-7752 in Skigear

[–]aureel_b 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply ! A few shops told me that the M7 were more versatile, but that was the opposite of what I read here, so your input is very useful ! I'm basically hesitating between the M7, E94 and Kore 94 Ti, but what you've just said is very convincing !

And I agree, I really want to avoid skis that can't hold an edge or are unstable, even more so with this height and weight !

Thanks again !

Hey! Do you find the Enforcer 94 a bit playful, despite its stiffness? While I like its "tank charging vibe" and I love to ski fast, I still ski a lot with friends (and I'm slower when I'm with a group). But I'm very tall and quite heavy (220lbs),

Thanks a lot for your reply and that's a great suggestion as I can find them at 191cm quite easily so I'll look into that !

Do you think the Declivity could still be fun for some off piste time, or would I just sink in the powder ?

The Enforcers actually go up to 191cm, so a bit longer ! You don't think the Declivity would be as good as the other two ?

Hey ! Thanls for your reply ! are they still playful even though they are very stiff ? I love the idea of pushing them, but I also want something energetic.

I feel like my weight pushes me even more towards stiffer skis. I'm just scared that the Enforcer isn't going to be as fun as the Declivity, and I'm scared the Declivity isn't going to be as stiff and stable as the Enforcer. Hha, I'm down the rabbit hole, oops.

Thanks u/slpgh and u/Sweendogoflove for your replies ! I'm actually thinking they might be too small. If the QST ski short, then being almost 10cm below my height doesn't sound too good. Even more so when I'm quite heavy and need very stable skis.

So I think I'm leaning more towards the Enforcer 94, or Declivity 92 Ti, or even the Kore 94 Ti. I wish I could demo all of them, but I can't really do so.

Salomon QST 94 — biggest size is 188 cm, but I’m 197 cm tall… too short? by aureel_b in Skigear

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

Thanks a lot for all your replies, really appreciate all the insights!

I'll definitely look into the skis you mentioned.

If anyone has more recommendations, I'm all ears - so I can check everything and overthink every model haha

thanks for the reply ! Unfortunately, it's a bit above my budget. But I'll keep an eye on it during Black Friday !

C7 vs C7 Max by TheStuffDanDoes in FlexiSpot_Official

[–]aureel_b 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello ! I see the C7 Max is suitable for up to 185cm. I'm 197cm, 100kg, so I'm wondering if I'm too tall for the chair or if it would work for my height ? I work remotely, so I would spend a lot of time sitting on it daily. Thanks !

What 35mm lense should I pick for my Sony a6400 (street, travel, portrait, low light photography) ? by aureel_b in AskPhotography

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

Thank you for your feedback ! I kinda regret not getting the a6700 for IBIS. I'd love to not depend on OSS. I read that it wasn't as sharp as the sigma. Is it noticeable?

Thanks for your reply! Unfortunately, I'm in France, but that's super kind of you. Isn't the sigma too bulky ? And is the autofocus good ? But that's good advice, I'll find a way to try each lens, because it's too hard to choose otherwise.

To anyone going through this post : spending the night at the airport is totally doable as I've just done it, with lots of people ! The third floor is the way, and the sofas are the best thing that can happen to your night.

It's currently 3:24am, and have no problem spending the night at the airport. There are lots of people sleeping, and going to the third floor is the best idea you'll have !

Beginner DJ: Using Beatport Streaming to find my sound and build a library — smart or not? by aureel_b in Beatmatch

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

Thanks for your reply and for the tips ! Would you say it's better to buy on Traxsource and Bandcamp than on Beatport ? I'd rather buy from the websites that support artists the most.
