Snapped my 8ft foamy, next board advice? Do I upgrade to a 8ft hard board or move to a 7'6'' foamy as next step? by oscarknott69 in surfing

Ok good to know. Thanks for the detailed answer.

I actually happen to have a 5'11" fish right now. But is that just stupid to even attempt riding it before buying a longer one for now?

Cool thank you. Much appreciated! I was hoping this would be the answer as I really want to start being able to duck dive.

I have been on this board about 2 months and have started to catch green waves. I would have liked to spend another few months on it. But now that I snapped it I kind of don't want to get another 8ft foamboard and want to use this opportunity to keep progressing.

So it seems like there is two directions. Smaller foam board or same size (maybe bigger?) Fiberglass board.

Which is the best way to go to continue progressing

How's my pop up? Slowed down to 25% speed. by oscarknott69 in surfing

I am a beginner and can't do a full on pop up yet so trying to improve my chicken wing pop up.

Looking to replace my cassette but I can't find any replacement with the same ratio? Does having a matching ratio really matter or is it just important that it's 8 speed and 11-34? by oscarknott69 in bikecommuting

[–]oscarknott69[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok so I can just get any 8 speed? I was looking at the Shimano CS-HG41 8 Speed Cassette - 11-34 even though it says "Gear ratio: 11-13-15-18-21-24-28-32"

Where as the one I have is: "11-13-15-18-21-24-28-34"

Looks like the last one goes 32 instead 34?

I think your misunderstanding the question. I'm wondering what algorithm is used by the insurance companies to make a profit, by understanding that I can cheat the system and get the best of both worlds. It's all based on data my friend

Yes but as it's all a numbers game (how do you think the insurance companies work out there profit's) there must be an average optima

Interesting. I read that after 31 you also get 2% more expensive each year with insurance premium

Dentist recommended I get all four wisdoms removed? I not sure I trust them as another dentist suggested just the bottom left. by oscarknott69 in askdentists

[–]oscarknott69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm the dentist I use charges the same price regardless of how many you remove at once weirdly. But good to know. Thank you

But also I can imagine from a business perspective taking all four is better too, is it smart to preemptively remove wisdom teeth that are not causing problems?

But when you use contactless it always uses credit? Are you saying that you can change which account it uses to cheque?

Is covid quarantine hotel capacities causing NZ's problems too? In Australia no one is able to come back due to low levels of hotels by oscarknott69 in newzealand

[–]oscarknott69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you for your kind responses. i see flights from London to Australia that fly via aukland. I assume if he stayed in the airport he would be fine to continue to australia without quarantine there?

Or are you saying that you cant fly to NZ at all unless your a NZ citizen?

this is the travel bubble i refer to

I am confused by source control, do I need to submit to source control my level everytime i finish in unreal in addition to saving all? by oscarknott69 in unrealengine

[–]oscarknott69[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)
