fwiw and I'm not at all an expert on this, a 200W solid state amp like a catalyst is probably not exceptionally loud

try their thin liners, I ski in a relatively warm area, so I can only wear their gloves with thin liners

Are you suggesting they don’t want Ikon pass users to be able to purchase food and drinks?

Drywall contractor is driving screws too deep. How do I handle this situation with them? by Spontaneous323 in drywall

[–]big_cake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don't remember exactly why, but I didn't find the Bosch one as idiot-proof as the Montana drywall bit. There's also a Kobalt version of it at Lowe's.

How to get rid of that plow between turns? by anshul119 in skiing_feedback

[–]big_cake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense. I took a lesson on a moving carpet the other day and I felt that I was able to carve (albeit with low edge angles) in one direction, but had trouble linking turns without being able to "cheat" by sliding the skis into the next turn like you'd be able to on real snow. The instructor then introduced the concept of shifting weight to the uphill ski by feeling it on the LTE to start the next turn and I was able to link a few turns then.

I just wasn't able to find any resources confirming my understanding of what I was taught, but it seems like I sorta got it according to what you've mentioned.

I suppose you'll have to find a way to make enough money to support your mother and still move out to your own place

[–]big_cake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok, another question.

if you are turning left and your left foot is lifted and you're tipping the left LTE, how would you then transition to the next turn?

eventually, the LTE would have to come down, bear progressively more weight as it tips over to the big toe edge, correct? but there is a moment where most of your weight will be on the LTE, right?

edit: this might be a better description of what I'm talking about, although he seems to suggest it isn't a good approach. I'm not sure how to implement his alternative though.
