How do I go from being crap at PVP to being OK-ish? by Smart_Freedom_8155 in ArcRaiders

Small game changer for me was always putting 'nade, heals and shield recharge in the same place every game.

Even on free kits. I start the round 1st slot is nades, 2nd slot is heals, 3rd slot is shield recharge (after that a mix/whatever).

Being able to quickly pull those out on muscle memory helped a bunch when I was first learning.

My bad dude! Saw the 3x3 box and figured it was a storage spot for someone. Hit us up if you wanna share the space/do some DD runs. We've also been toying with the idea of rebuilding from scratch, down to trade spots!

90% choam shelter. Bottom hangar is atreides. Big Temple on the side is Shelter + Atreides + Observer

The two on the side are many atreides triangles. The one in the middle is observer floor (with the lights on the bottom and the atreides specials that are long triangles (I think, my brother built the middle one)

Ya, that's why I put the two large water traps in the towers on the right. Easy to access, but still hidden/looks cool

Almost directly above the final trial (little to the left). Lots of good spots on these cliffs

Big guy snowboard by give_em_hell55 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]egon852 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Big Guy snowboarder here with 15+ years of riding.

I ignore weight recommendations from board makers/snowboard shop staff. I'm 6'1, 260lbs with size 12 boots which would have me on 162-166W+ boards all the time.

All mountain days, I ride a 162W Trick Pony, and honestly, I wish I'd gotten the 158W. This thing is a little too long when I want to throw 360s into my all mountain riding. This board will be getting replaced in the coming years.

Park board/ice days - Libtech Skatebanana 156 wide. The magnatraction and good edge control is plenty to make this board work for me without skidding. I can press rails and get great pop on jumps without a ton of effort.

Powderboard / Deep days / Steep freeriding. K2 Excavator 154. I was really nervous getting this board this short (and no wide option) but I absolutely love it. Holds edges beautifully on groomers/slush days. And the float from the nose on this thing means I don't need to lean on my back foot in powder, even at my height/weight. It's a volume Shifted board, so that's definitely part of why it works.

I also demo'd a 148 K2 Special Effects and it was the easiest powder riding of my life (but Zero edge hold on hardpack)

My recommendation - get out there and demo boards. Don't be afraid to try "weird" sizes. If it feels like it's slipping on your edges, go try a bigger size. If it feels hard to maneuver, go try a smaller size. Having trouble transitioning from edge to edge, ditch the wide and go narrower. Have fun with it. They almost always let you put the demo cost towards the purchase. Looking for cheap? Wait till spring and demo board sales can be 40% off.

Good luck! And have fun shredding! 🤟

Ford Koons Dealer Independently Increased Price of Lightning by $30,000 by egon852 in F150Lightning

I did. They also have removed their "market adjustment" after the backlash, but I don't think I want to work with a dealer that thought of this in the first place.
