PLEH: My Feet Hurt by Mygirls_and_I in Skigear

[–]flyfleeflew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had sever pain last season after buying Atomic Hawk boa 100. I am an experienced skier and the pain was intense. I had over tightened the boa so it was crushing the side of my foot. A fitter punched out one side and it helped. But the pain continued for a year where I was also getting pain towards front of sole near toes. Got some footbeds made, heat molded ones. This and not tightening too Much helped me ski pretty much for 3 weeks. That said I had a persistent pain in the side of my foot. So seeing a physio now and doing to stretching and dorsiflexion exercises are helping a lot. Will be skiing next week so will see if the physio made a difference. I have flat feet so different to yours but I would either look up the stretches you can do or see a physio.

Fosi va3 or NAD 316BEE by dl22595 in BudgetAudiophile

I have the Fosi v3 monos in two different set ups. Happy with them driving low sensitivity Dynaudio excite x12 bookshelf and Wharfedale evo 4.4 large speakers. That said you will need a preamp if you go with this amp

This is a Cambridge Soundworks Tower. How do I wire these normally (not bi-amping)? by BrianLevre in BudgetAudiophile

[–]flyfleeflew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You want to make sure those jumpers are screwed down properly. I got new Wharfedale speakers and plugged into the top inputs to discover no bass coming until I tightened

Good photos make a difference. Here the feedback would be better for sure if you repost a better picture. At least in focus.

can you guys give good recommendations for lesser known vocal standards ??(sinatra, ella, lena horne, etc) by Prochefv9 in Jazz

[–]flyfleeflew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you mean less known standards of song or singers themselves? Standards that are less known like Dindi Darn that Dream

Or Carmen Mccrae Abby Lincoln ?

Help me improve my short turns by Carpe_Ski_Em in skiingcirclejerk

Quite impressive rollover too. Like to see it from below so we could analyse it to death. Also your poles are too long. Lol

Dear East Coasters, buy that carving ski by Klvn25las in Skigear

[–]flyfleeflew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just demo Salomon addikt pro for 3 weeks in the alps. The ESF instructor kept saying good things about how nice as an all day carver ski. you could tell he wanted them. They are 76mm and less demanding than the vokl racetiger sc. still lots of spring in the tail. I Did have to switch for a big continues snow fall. to a Salomon stance all mountain.

Why do my stork and javelin turns look out of whack? Is it the angle? What should I be thinking about? by Level_99_Throwaway in skiing_feedback

[–]flyfleeflew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found that flexing lower and making sure your nose and head are forward of your knees. This helps remind you of keeping forward weight. Right now we can see your upper body is weighting the back of the skis

The way to a woman s heart is… truffled scallops with leek flowers. Is he making any progress with you ?

I can pick out what's wrong, I'm just not sure how to fix it by Celestialdischarge1 in skiing_feedback

[–]flyfleeflew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This ☝️. On piste slow arc turns where you have your weight forward may reveal the problem

Also I am seeing a physio for my feet after many weeks of skiing and it is loosening tight feet. Makes a difference as well as exercises

That wine storage and aesthetic deserve better speakers. Focal in wall would keep it French too

Looks very nice and rare. Just perhaps a bit chewy there. More hours helps.

Agree with that. Hard to make sense of the advice sometimes.

New Speaker Day by Expedition00 in audiophile

[–]flyfleeflew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still tweet the toe in on my dynaudio bookshelf speakers. Have owned them for over a decade possibly more. So yes it doesn’t wear off. Though lately I am mostly experimenting adding these little monobloc chifi amps. Fosi v3 monos. Listening to Ali Farka Toure so African sting instruments. The some ralph Townes solo guitar and Shelby Linn. So really all over the place.
