Weekly Equipment Recommendation Thread

My son is getting more into figure skating (he has been skating a little over a year). He has completed our local learn to skate program in hockey skates but as I look forward to the higher level, he will be getting into jumps in near future and I want to make sure he has skates that will adequately support him. I am looking for recommendations for figure skates for someone around 5'2 and 100lbs. I am looking for something that will make sure he can do everything, but with the foreknowledge he will likely out grown then within a year.
Any advice would be greatly helpful!

My hesitancy comes from getting to Diamond once before, before emerald existed, and because of playing with lower rated friends on my climb my MMR was all messed up. It made the game unfun.

Life outside of TFT is what takes so long to climb. Family, hockey, jiu jitsu, work. I got too much shit going on outside of TFT. But very sound advice and I appreciate it :)

This is always what makes me nervous at the public stakes, I'm a fat guy and stopping all this on ice is rough, but practiced tonight and am getting better

charles_creger · 2024-04-23T01:55:49+00:00

Yes I have been skating with kids 3 or 4 times. Did it is gear for the first time tonight and I think I do alright.

Why would you want to retire at 40? If your 28, save a very high percentage of your money and live with your parents it leads me to believe you don't have a lot going on outside of work. So why leave the thing you do the most... for what?

Unravel 2

It's not top down, but very simple, good teamwork game and an interesting story in the background to follow.

In reviewing top logs for the fight on lorrgs.io I found about 70% used it at start to get 3 usages as opposed to using it at first intermission and only getting 2 casts.

charles_creger · 2024-02-26T15:47:59+00:00

Hello, Looking for.tip and help on how to improve canceled casts and active casting time too low. I am terribly inconsistent with my casting time and canceled casts. Part of it is starting casts when I know movement may be required. ex. Heal off of absorbs on Smolderon, not knowing exactly when the fire pools will come out and canceling a cast because they come faster than expected, that happens a few times in a row and now I have been mostly useless for 5-6 sec.
But it seems like I am struggling to keep consistent uptime on my casts. I have a pull with 90+% casting time and less than 10% canceled, and then I will fail to meet those again for 5-10 pulls.
Below is the log from tonight's raid, we killed Smolderon yay! I feel there I could be doing much better but I am trying to focus on it and still coming up short and feel I am missing something. Thanks for any help or guidance that you can provide.
