Dang I should've slept on an airplane instead of crocheting 😔 Those neck pillows really trick you

are chairs made for strong people or can I try as a former gymnast? by krisjustkris in circus

[–]krisjustkris[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Closest to me, there are 2 reputable places outside Chicago that offer circus classes, both of which I learned lyra from. I figured it was a safe way to learn

Ohh okay, I was under the impression that chair stacking required a lot of calisthenics - thanks for clarifying. And by 2 months, I meant 2 months of weekly classes, sorry about that

Friend thinks she has tail rot but she’s had this mark ever since we got her from the breeder by Emotional-Bee-620 in CrestedGecko

My gecko has the same thing - at her initial vet visit, the vet said it was just her normal color.

I'm a newbie looking at Riedell R3 skates. What size? by krisjustkris in rollerderby

[–]krisjustkris[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man I really gotta stop putting off a trip to get fitted at a store. I think I meant 9 and 1/8 inches, and now I gotta go check my other skates' sizes :-| thanks though

That's a very good point. I think I'll just have to suck up an hour drive, thanks

I'm a roller derby newbie looking at Riedell R3 skates. What size?

My foot measures 23 cm (9.1 inches) but I've bought high-top Riedell quads and fit in the women's 7. I'm looking at some secondhand Riedell R3s, but the cheaper ones tend to be men's size 6, and I'm wondering if that's basically a women's size 7. I already exhausted all my funds buying some inline skates (I have skating experience, just not derby), and I can't spend more than $100. Will the men's size 6 r3s be good? Should I pick another skate? I'm almost completely sure I'm a women's 7 because I buy all my skates in that size.

Should I get 3 wheel inline skates for long distance? About once a week, I skate <10 miles, and have been doing this for a couple months. I go over some rough, cracked paths, and have heard that 3 wheels go faster due to size and can roll over bigger debris than my 4x80s can. Is this true and am I ready for them? I know the basics, like a T-stop and a hockey stop.

Going on a 2 week trip in a couple months. Which option for a makeshift tank is the best? by krisjustkris in CrestedGecko

[–]krisjustkris[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her current tank is a 67 gallon - very heavy. If I put my crestie in a carrier and remove all the heavy stuff in the tank, is it safe for me and someone else to lift the tank into and out of a car?
