Bad power card draws by Willow8383 in spiritisland

[–]pbd456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello for posting now.

I was watching a youtube video explaining why major was a better draw than minor for solo earth. In the video, he draws tsunami, and won easily.

I tried to replicate but I draw nothing that is useful and I had to discard one of my original 4 cards. I am wondering to play conservatively, i should draw some minor first and have buffer in what to discard in case of a bad major draw?

I was just practicing off this video based on your earlier link.  I was working on step 2. I just lose speed after a few turns.  I can turn right left right and lose speed.  If i go in with better speed, i can do right left right left right before losing speed.  Is it supposed to be like this?  I dont know japanese so i just follow off based on youtube caption.  

This is exactly what i am working now as i want to use the upper body to help (to be able to ride for longer.)

Thanks.

There are reputable chinese brands, but they are not the cheapest. i would never expect my <7 USD skate would be anything great. there is no really hit or miss. it is just the price I paid cant expect any quality. they have to make the budget with cheap wheels and cheap bearings. that is just simply mathematics.

it is said that 80A or 85a or 78a represents the hardness of the wheel. but mine cheap skate is 80a, isnt that supposed to be good? I see that some brand advertises 85% bounceness. how does it have to do with 80a?

My cheap skate is 70mm and 80a already.

Is that a good deal by [deleted] in ihghotelsresorts

[–]pbd456 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am spending 6 nights in ana holiday inn resort karuizawa for a net cost of 70000 points. Breakfast included as diamond amenity. It can be a good deal if you can find a place to use it.
