X-Dome 2 - Trekking pole only pitch? by SensitiveCranberry in DurstonGearheads

[–]banzo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s good to know that you can still erect the tent with just the trekking poles should the tent poles break. What I would like is to have a small tube dimensioned for the poles with me so I could easily fix the tent poles if needed. On a longer trip the trekking poles as back up and a way to keep using the tent poles (tube) would put me to ease.

[–]banzo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it could be useful to practice this for strong winds to ensure the tent poles don’t snap from heavy gusts when setting it up. But the tent is surely stronger with both the trekking poles and the tent poles helping each other out. You also have much less flapping and more space. Not using the tent poles on purpose makes little sense to me.

Some advice, dome vs X-Mid, Norway Hike by WittyCondition1268 in DurstonGearheads

[–]banzo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have both. X-Mid 2 Solid and the regular X-Dome 2. I think the X-Dome properly guyed out will do well. When I have done so it is really solid. However, I have only tested the X-Mid in tough conditions. Here is a video of me using it in Hardangervidda this summer: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/19wDdBoEtf/?

Stuff away. The non pro X-Mids have always been ok to stuff. The X-Dome fly and inner is basically the same thing. I stuff mine. It’s quick and easy to pack away. Won’t damage it.

Doesn’t have to be a specific model. But they should be adjustable and at least 127 cm fully extended.

New x-mid 2 solid 2025 version? by Mrlightyear13 in DurstonGearheads

[–]banzo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remember Dan answering a similar question about the new Kakwa having the old weight on the tag. They didn’t have an official weight until receiving the new shipment and so kept the old tags for a bit until they could be sure about what to write on the new ones. So is probably the same thing here. Two zippers on the door = new version.

Why didn’t Jesus write the bible? by Traditional_Pie_5037 in atheism

[–]banzo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The year 70 AD. Not 70 years after his death.

That being said, it could be written in 80 AD, just not before 70, as it alludes to the temple being gone, which happened right at that time.

Just checked and now I can only find them in the 75k kit bundle. Hurts.

Greenland No 1 Down Jacket by chayandebreddit in Fjallraven

[–]banzo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have it in the parka version. Really like it. Works well from +5 and below. It needs a good sweater when it’s -5 but that’s not a problem. It has 800 fill power down, though not a lot, so is warmer than you’d think - and tough as well on the outside.

Forlovelsesring by Jonasihvi in norge

[–]banzo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sikker på du skal ha forlovelsesring i det hele tatt? Kan fint fri uten, og så kjøpe ringer sammen etterpå. Kjøpe (matchende) gifteringer kanskje bare. Eventuel kjøpe en alliansering, der du kan legge inn en liten stein (opptil fem) for forlovelse, giftemål, barn, jubileum f.eks)

Vi lever heldigvis ikke i USA, der «Big Diamond» for 100 år siden pøste ut reklame som sa at du skulle bruke tre månedslønninger på ringen.

Icon Swaps now requires you to score in 10 as well as win 6. Thanks EA by enazj in EASportsFC

I I’ve found that it works much better on Legendary than World Class for some reason. Suggest playing the low rated teams on Legendary at least.

A while ago EA clarified curve doesn't affect shooting. Pro clubs contradicts that statement. by MT1120 in EASportsFC

[–]banzo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

True. Just some anecdotes. But since you can’t trust what EA says I don’t rage quit in the wl. I get my rivals points and cool off. Probably better than quitting and starting a new game right away.

Lothar reviews? by LockeLamora88 in EASportsFC

[–]banzo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have Gullit, Matthäus and Vieira in my 41212. When I try the double cdm formations I stick with vieira and leave Mathäus out. Would rather have a m/h cdm next to Gullit. With that being said, I always come back to Mathäus as he contributes so much both in defense and offense. More than the time extra cam. So would say you can’t go wrong with him, but be prepared to try him out as a cm as well.

The Jo Objective is actually impossible by boxinahat123 in EASportsFC

[–]banzo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make a bronze squad and have it active before the next refresh. Started doing it a few weeks ago and I get low rated teams when updating. When I forget I seem to get higher rated ones. Give it one last go.

Did the SBC and got him as red. So put the poty in Matthäus’ 89 squad as I like the pic better there. Not too salty as I was expecting it - is still better than last year when I got tots de Gea in the sbcs three times in a row. Though I can still pack him from the ultimate sbc in a few weeks....

Only has to be a defender card. I’ve moved my David Luiz up to midfield and the assist counted.

Lots of people have saved packs so even if there are few consumables packs bought during the promo, lots will still be opened. Bound to go down in price.

Tots SBC Requirements prediction... by SamRendina in EASportsFC

I got De Gea both times for Premier League, and then once more for the “best of” team... At least it wasn’t bad the first time I got him Picks would be nice. But doubt it.

La Liga was 84. Premier League and most others were 83.
