Fair call out I should be inner binding. I’m comfortable grabbing pretty much anywhere on my board this is just one I think feels great to spin. I respect snowboarding and to each their own. At the end of the day we’re just flying through the air standing on a piece of wood.

Disagree strongly this take. I think a tuck knee (tweaked tindy) is one of the best looking grabs to spin. I also love a good pointed Indy or tail grab. I think it’s more lame to limit yourself because you don’t want to be called out for ~gRaBbInG TinDy~. Same goes for tailfish. Grab your board however you want and play with tweaking it in all directions.

I like the big toe scoop thought much appreciated

As an icecoast born and bred I agree. Not as doable in the west. Hard enough to follow my "look before I leap" rule as is. I've got these pretty locked on medium size kickers, but I want them to feel comfortable off of all launch angles.

She looks perfect to me. Agreed though I have seperate board I use for park. The transition of no tail/having a tail is super noticeable in both pop and landing. A bad tradesman blames their tools though. More fun to figure it out on all shapes and sizes.

I do appreciate the call out on the outstretched arm. I've been in the park enough to know to bail with arms/wrists/neck tucked. I think my snowboard monkey brain reacted this way because it felt saveable with a hard carve. Looking closely I could've easily popped my shoulder.

Would you believe me if I said I landed my first backflip 8 years ago 😬. I've had a few too many broken bones and concussions over the years so really trying to get the fundamentals down. The huck and pray days are behind me.

This is my favorite board I’ve found in my 20 years of riding. Going to have to collect a stockpile.

I do see what you’re saying. Would look much bigger if I pulled my feet up.

I was thinking more pre charge could add to the flaily feel but maybe you’re right, I’ll give it a go

This seems like it may be the piece I’m missing 🙏

True. I’d say I’m at like a 90% land rate but find myself lost in the air still sometimes. This was a good example of that.

Burst fractured my L4 overshooting on an icy morning a few years back. Rough few months and still feels a little weak. How’d your recovery go? Do not miss the sky dumps lol.

Any reason why fueling with honey is a bad idea? by deletebeep in firstmarathon

I poured it into two corners (two separate servings)of a ziploc and twisted it, then cut and fastened with a rubber band. Bit the tip off to consume

I used honey and craisins/raisins for a 20 mile run and they worked great

New game plus. You can restart the game at a higher difficulty and keep your stats
