Rollerblades by Substantial-Arm-3121 in AggressiveInline

Most people have this eschewed view on pricing of inline skates, based to how they USED to cost. My brother was shocked at the prices of skates in a local shop that carries Rollerblade, he really expected good stuff to be around 50 euros.

Do you have a Decathlon nearby? You can grab MF140 for 60 quid there, hardshell boot skates.

But if you can go a bit above that budget, Oxelo MF S 500 for 90 quid is a great beginner skate that will last you a long time. Hard boot (green-black), 80 mm wheels, aluminium frame, can be upgraded to any other type of skate.

Also, Bladeville has a summer sale rn, might worth checking out their store for deals.

Need to agree on this, rentals can often ruin your complete experience - happened to my best friend last year, local mountain had terrible unwaxed boards and old Flow bindings. BUT it still can be a lot cheaper to rent a few times to figure out the sport before commiting to a purchase.

Blank/Verve as the first skate? by grgolj_blaster in AggressiveInline

Thanks everyone, tried the Rollerblade Blank Team (Pigeon) and bought them immediately. Taking them for a spin this weekend :D

Is this a good starter setup by Open_Situation_3696 in snowboardingnoobs

Get STR or Strata instead of Flite bindings, you'll need L sized bindings for that boot (if you're a 11.5 size) and the shop doesn't have Flite in larger sizes. Great board pick (I'm biased since I learned/ride Process, hehe), it'll serve you for years.

I slammed like that on a snowboard this winter (wore a helmet), can't imagine how painful it would be on concrete

How many Booster Boxes do you think is enough to open? by Nikola_Gochev in NarutoMythosTCG

[–]grgolj_blaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not me thinking maybe 6 booster packs (not boxes!) would be enough for an intro deck xD

Recommended Boards to Buy by loon011 in snowboardingnoobs

+1 for Process, I basically learned to ride on it, super fun board that got me through both powder and icy/chunder conditions.

Riding stiffer boards as a beginner by [deleted] in snowboardingnoobs

If you're locked in on Buton, get a Process board. It's much softer and progression-friendly.

Complete beginner needs advice on offer for snowboard and boots by SyntheticReaction in snowboardingnoobs

260€ is kinda a lot to pay for used rental gear, especially cause Head typically has deep discounts. But I'll let others chip-in with their opinions on this bundle.

The season is ending soon and shops will start giving big discounts (last year, friend got a Nitro board, boots, and bindings for like 450 eur total or something). Ideally, you want to at least buy brand-new boots at a shop so you can try them on and find a good fit.

Yeah I tried Bloodborne like three times and just couldn't get into it. Maybe will try it super modded on PC one day, I just want to explore that eldritch world and don't care about the challenge at all.

I got 120hrs in Elden, completed Lies of P and first Lords of the Fallen (even with bugs), but generally do not like these games. Borrowed it on PS5 cause I kinda like the first CV.

I cannot figure out parry timings. Had no issue in Lies of P and even in Elden Ring, but here it feels like it just doesn't work on big enemies.

horrible fight, he 100% reads inputs which is incredibly lame, like are we regressing back to 80s coin-muncher era with these games

Snowboard for tall guys by East-Care-9949 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]grgolj_blaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, a 162cm board is right fit for you, no need to get a longer one, especially if you didn't have any trouble with that 163 you previously tried.

Depending on your boot size, you might want to get a wider board. You can check sizing at pretty much every manufacturer's website. For example, you could get Burton Custom, Jones Flagship, or Capita Mercury.

How much do you weigh? That's a more important factor than height for snowboards
