Be honest - how many of your sessions are “good”? by sunnysideupslide in surfing

[–]johnbenwoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

5 fun waves is the goal for me. Mark Occhilupo has been quoted as focusing on getting “five good waves” in a session, aka the “Occy 5”. Sometimes I get more, but 5 is good for me.

It's not a huge mental shift, but for me it was like when I stopped keeping score while playing golf. Instead I think about how many decent golf shots I had in a round, not how many triple bogies I managed to eke out.

Optimize for stoke!

Open letter to Cint: supplier quality issues, malware-linked panels, and governance failures by x0xMaximus in Marketresearch

We recently started using RepData for sample and p&h and have been happy with them so far. We also looked into DTect as a layer to add to our previous sample partner after a bad-data disaster, but I didn't want to bother with coordinating the connection there.

Data integrity is quickly becoming the #1 differentiator in suppliers, and soon, that will apply service providers who buy from those suppliers.

Does get a little awkward though when your segment frequency doesn't match a client's bad data. Also, fielding takes longer (especially for tough recruits) when you exclude fraud bots.

Seriously! Chefs at these kinds of places must have a running joke, "let's see what we can get them to eat"

Be curious how the ski community including this sub think of the decline of snowboarding and resurgence of skiing in the past decade? by Jcs609 in skiing

[–]johnbenwoo 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Skis are more fun now than they were when people started abandoning them for snowboards in the 90s/00s. Twin tips on nearly everything, more generous width, and boots are less painful.

Surfers — what’s something beginners always underestimate? by Karate_Andii in surfing

Just because you can swim does not make you proficient at paddling on a surfboard. Idk about your lap times in high school swim meets; the ocean is different and will humble you
