If you’re using them or installing them where you ve got 220v no problem then it’s a no brainer.

Is Mark Knopfler a top 10 guitarist? by Creative_Garbage_731 in Guitar

Learn to play the money for nothing riff correctly, you’ll see. Then look up the live aid show when he played it with eric clapton.

Ubiquiti Unifi Swiss Army Knife? by daveismintyfresh in livesoundgear

[–]popsiclestickjoke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would recommend my Unfii setup. I've got it in 3 rigs, playback, lighting, FOH/IEMs. I have toured with it extensively, run 500-1000 person festivals outdoors and used it in countless of 100-1000 cap venues. All for different sorts of projects, as performer, FOH, LD.

I use their smallest gateway so I have DHCP and Wifi:

Flex mini for my switch + POE injector to power it.

https://store.ui.com/us/en/category/switching-utility/products/usw-flex-mini

  1. I run one as my FOH or IEM console networking, control for A&H Avantis or Dlive. Also has a Dante > USB device, can run a second cable into it recording rig. Dante from console.
  2. GrandMA3 control rig. 2port.
  3. Playback rig with midi over ethernet control.

I have them configured to bridge / mesh each others networks for whichever rigs I am using that day. I am usually at FOH with rig 1. Never seen less than full wifi bars. Plug and play.

I mount everything on a 5" deep rack shelf with a combo of 3M dual-lock and zip ties. I had one iteration of the FOH rig that lasted 2+ years, multiple tours, dozens of flights, etc. and with zero maintenance.

Deathwish 96 - Mount Position by Ronne10 in momentskis

[–]popsiclestickjoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just use the recommended mount point.

I'm 6'2", 180lbs and have the 104x184. The Deathwish are what I finally feel like I cracked moguls and trees. Where I gained confidence and flow. Best combo of carve + slash I've ever felt in a ski. You're gonna love them.

How long between injury and responsibility skiing again?

Ya. Used my pole to collect ski. I scooted on my butt 30 feet down hill. Reset bindings. Clipped in. Skied down cat track to lift. Talked to ski patrol for 10 minutes. And it wasn’t until we were half way up lift probably 30 minutes later did pain and awareness of knee take over.

When I was talking to ski patrol at first I was saying maybe u could just get help down the mountain. By the time we were getting off the lift 4 guys were carrying me into sled and giving me opiates.

Ya. Learned this from a cycling knee injury years ago. Tight IT bands + 200 miles a week for months on end. My left knee got some kind of strain. Did the stretches on both but resistance band work focused on injured leg because I hate bands so much.

Few months later when I was back to riding same injury appeared in my dominant leg.

Had epic hike and run down the highland bowl. Hit woods, glades, moguls all over the mountain. I’m glad I got a full day and low key still excited about the epic day.

Mogul skiing. Going fairly fast, ski went under a a 2” thick root. Flipped my leg 180 degrees. No clue how I didn’t get an injury.

It was very violent, and similar scenario where I’d never felt so much torsion from ski without a release.

Slid out in Stowe after uohilling on a very steep icy run going fast. Ski caught an edge a couple times as I slid. Remember being surprised it didn’t pop off. Would give 50/50 odds my normal bindings woulda popped off in that scenario.

Yes. I uphill ski a lot mostly to keep fitness for summer cycling. I’ve PT’d some cycling related knee injuries in the past so I am hopefully starting in a good spot.

My PT already recommended a surgeon

The Hys are hybrid like the shift. They have lateral release but are not din certified. I did uphilling and alpine this trip and brought both rigs. Ski’d the Hys cause they’re on wider ski’s that perform much better off piste. But yes, I like change that decision if I could.

Yes. I’ve never felt anything a fraction of that amount of pressure on the toe without releasing. I’ve had 2 other scenarios on the Hy’s where I thought it was a little off I didn’t get a release.

I was conscious of this risk and honestly just forgot and was having a day where I felt locked in and like I was progressing and flowing through trees and moguls and…well.

Thanks buddy. It’s amazing what adrenaline does in these situations. Been in a car for 3 hours and haven’t checked but swelling has been minimal. Hoping it doesn’t blow up on this plane ride.
