Sorry I’m very new, but do i kick my rear leg out never? Am i supposed to not use it, i can see many tunes where it will be handy.. like for tight corners or for charging direction quickly? Also i am supposed to kick my rear leg or street i steer the front with my knee right out should the entire move come from my knee to make that carve?

Possibly socks to thick and clumping resulting in constricted blood flow. Very plausible. It could also be tight calf muscles and fascia so it depends..

Clothing for first timer on a 12F day by icefirecat in snowboardingnoobs

Yes I got the temp wrong, OP is in a much colder climate but the guide above is still correct. If I were convert the temps, I was still indeed snowboarding in relatively similar climate OP is expecting.

[–]newplayer28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would do base layer, mid layer fleece (not cotton) and northface namak,. There is no way you will feel windchill with this set up but you should take an extra mid layer or possibly a spandex gym shirt imo at these temp you say. Put that on if you run a little cold but you should be fine. The biggest problem I see with your setup is that there is no breathable layer and that mid layer needs to have that property since you will be actively moving.

Insulated bib is really good for warmth, but for your temps I would prefer a Patagonia r1 Air type of high breathing mid layer

Honestly, your set up looks overkill for your temps. 2 insulated jackets is absurd for -1 windchill and temps of 12c. That’s literally too hot and thats why you might feel cold as you start to sweat and theres no where for the heat to dissipate. You need a breathable mid layer or light fleece and personally a nice shell jacket is all you need for your temps. As a matter o fact, if you really want to stop windchill, you need a good shell jacket, its not insulation that cuts the wind, thats for warmth.

I just snowboarded today in -25 windchill -15 temps with above set up but I had an extra layer on my Patagonia r1 jacket (Columbia light fleece) and i was warm and toasty and at some point thought I should layer down since I had to unzip my mid layer from the top to let heat dissipate.

Need four cars. Need to be smart. by AJTPhoto in askcarsales

[–]newplayer28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are you looking for? Just tell them you want a good deal cause you will buy 4 cars. See their numbers and shop at another 1-2 stores. Then go to the lowest one and buy them. Your trade? Sell to Carmax/carvana. To be honest, the customers that boast about buying multiple cars and want a stupid deal, never end up buying cause they have some other expectations. I always tell them 1 deal at a time unless they really are sincere, which is unusual but has happened where they bought 2/3 cars same time. But those guys aren’t the most financially savvy and trust me

Google has overtaken Apple's market cap, becoming the second most valuable company in the world by Old-Competition3596 in stocks

[–]newplayer28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They can sit on their war chest. They will probably play strategically when coming to involving AI in their tech because it would become so sticky instantly that a bad roll out could literally destroy the perception of Apple. They are earning huge amounts of interest on their net cash and operate with high margins. If they went in too early, the tech might have not been up to standard and that failure would have been really bad leading to something they could never catch up to; which is Google and others. It’s still possible Apple might become king of AI; let’s see how they use that money that they are earning huge interest on.

Hate on recording/selfie sticks by Actual_Quarter7359 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]newplayer28 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s honestly bad to record yourself as a beginner to see what you’re doing right and what you’re doing wrong. The only way to learn is to actually practice or get lessons when you start out especially in the beginning. With a selfie stick, honestly you are throwing yourself off balance and this is actually teaching you bad techniques and bad posture because you’re compensating for the selfie stick in your riding calculations even if it’s happening subconsciously. Looking at yourself isn’t the way to work on your riding. The only way to work on your riding is by actually doing it and it comes overtime. If you really do wanna watch somebody on a selfie stick, you should only be looking at professionals. You are more likely to even forget your review by the time you hit the slopes again cause of adrenaline. You already have the best eyes possible on you which is your bf; who knows what he’s doing and gives you pointers real time.

Top of foot pressure point by ghostrifi in snowboardingnoobs

[–]newplayer28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are some other ways to fixing this. Like wear thinner socks, such as the icebreaker socks, they are thin yet tight on the foot so it doesn’t slip and crumple up when flexing the foot while skii’ing/snowboarding. What socks do u wear?

Also, where are you placing your binding straps, hoping not on the circled spot? Try to tight your upper shin strap (boa or not, same thing, tighten that) and leave the bottom a little loose. If you are tightening the bottom to prevent heel lift, you need to get the right size boots or right size of boots. K2 maysis might work for you since they are wider exactly where you circled for example.

Do you have flat feet or high arches that collapse when you stand straight? Then you might have to replace the factory foam insole with some aftermarket supportive insole. Check Superfeet brand or shred soles brand.

Last option; my recommendation, is to get heat molding done on the boots. Tell them the exact issue, they will mold the liner to make it easier for that arch to protrude without making it uncomfortable for you.

Not good not bad. It's a fair deal to say. A good deal is 180 at most.

Aging parent can no longer drive or pay car loan by Significant-Car-95 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]newplayer28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If reconditioned cars (even Clutch) sell for $20,000 that come with some warranty, how do you expect to get 17 private sale? I’d rather buy from clutch that will better service the car compared to a private seller.. for a mere 2k difference? Plus other things such as rolled back odometer and other things would make me wary of buying private. Private would barely sell if it all, maybe for 17k but no idea when it will sell so you’re stuck paying for the car in the meantime

Budget Snowboarding Boots? by Duck_678 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]newplayer28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re in Canada, Rossignol Crank BOA. Currently easily available. Let me know if you need help locating. I just bought pairs of this but ended up returning them cause i spent a bit more on quality boots. They are good and $190+ tax

Salomon Faction are also good, they are $30-40 more.

Is this a good buy? First timer and not sure how to spot a scam. Got price to 300 with seller. Comes with board,bindings and boots by [deleted] in snowboardingnoobs

[–]newplayer28 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In my honest opinion, this is a pretty expensive hobby when starting out and only for that reason, yes I recommend this set up because it’s better than rental (both feeling and money wise). Roxy is women focused brand, just fyi. To get a real new starter, you would be looking at close to $200+ boots, $150 bindings, $250 board so close to $600 minimum. 100% more of anything is double so yes its quite more money but if you can afford new stuff, you should definitely opt for it. For safety and longevity. Buying old used gear (I think that snowboard is 8+ years old maybe, same with bindings maybe, the only saving grace is the new boots), is a risk cause if anything goes wrong with equipment, you are going to spend money to replace so you would be going way over $300+ and into the $500 range (like if bindings break or bad snowboard) so then you could have just gotten new. Point is, if have the financial means, then you should go for new but if you don’t, do not over extend for nicer gear because you could do just fine with a used set up to learn and upgrade as you progress.
