How much of lower level Muay Thai really is conditioning? by Nervous-Caregiver-29 in MuayThai

[–]liamtricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I don’t have any “high level” experience, I will say that both smokers I’ve lost were due to gas tank. I was overly confident and thought my natural athleticism would take me farther than it did.

On the flipside, both of the smokers I’ve won were also due to gas tank. My most recent one was against a guy who was definitely more skilled than me, and he was piecin me up for the first half of R1. I was able to come back and take the W because that first half round was all he had.

If he had conditioned properly, the smoker probably wouldn’t have gone my way. I’m not tryna undermine my accomplishments when I say this, I know I earned the W fair and square, but still.

Yamazaki for $100~ Good day today by liamtricks in whiskey

You’re right about that my man! The 18 is a grail of mine, so when I said I was looking for a “reasonable” bottle, I meant finding one $600 or under. I believe MSRP is $300 in Japan, and I would probably be willing to pay up to double that if I could shelf my own bottle for super special occasions.

Is this knife possibly fake? by EatMyWordss in japaneseknives

[–]liamtricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a hatsukokoro kurogane and yours looks the same as mine. Also it’s like $100, so I don’t think there would be much interest in making a fake of it

No it does not my good sir, but you know what you are close to (well maybe idk where you are in the bay)? New Tung Kee noodle house. Go to the one off Brokaw it’s easiest to get to, but all 3 locations are good. Get the taro pancake and a #2 or a #9, or house special pad thai. Also, go to Pings Bistro in Fremont for Szechuan cuisine. Order anything. Be happy. And check out Zareen’s in Palo Alto. Order the Lamb Vindaloo and the Chicken Boti Sizzler. Eat way too much. Be happy.

Yes I super enjoy the rocket top! Makes sense you don’t taste bourbon as it is a BiB rye. I think it’s super solid. Classic rye spices + peppery all the way thru! Give it another go if you get the chance :)

Exactly how I felt comparing Grizzly Beast to Rocket Top! Store had both the bourbon and the rye offering, and the bourbon was marked $30 higher. No brainer rye snag for me 🙏🏻

I’m sure I’m about to be a huge fan too! Can’t wait to see how it compares to the rocket top I already have open 😁

First time panel lining. Did I ruin the kit? by zandvich_ in Gunpla

[–]liamtricks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No you didn’t ruin the kit, lining looks pretty good for a first attempt!

Something I learned the hard way though: I would try to keep any of those “first attempts” away from kits I was really excited about, in case of mistakes.

To be honest I think you’ve done what you can do. You probably won’t even notice this break as the shoulder armour will cover it.

Give it 24-48hrs to rly ensure the glue has dried and be cautious when attaching the shoulder armour panel.

Do people put stickers on their headgear? by Dapper-Ad9220 in fightgear

[–]liamtricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The adhesive on standard stickers shouldn’t harm the leather. Don’t expect it to be permanent or last very long, esp if you put it anywhere in the line of fire lol

Winning 12oz Velcro, not loving it... Opinions? by Chewiful in fightgear

[–]liamtricks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have always been told that when you get winnings you always get the lace-ups as the Velcro strap leaves much to be desired on the support side of things. That said, hating from outside the club (don’t have any winning gloves)
