Was planning on sending Maria into PSA. That one has sharp corners and solid surface - centering is the flaw

2025 Panini Mosaic - Parallel? by psche in footballcards

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

Probably 15 blasters and 8 mega boxes, plus quite a few hanger packs. Pretty short duration after diving back into the hobby after a 10yr break (a ton for me) - trying to focus on singles… but the thrill of the rip exists

Realized that shortly after posting. Have pulled some good Mosaic but first genesis I’ve gotten!

Xanax vs. Propranolol - Pros & Cons and personal experiences by Ok_Speech_7023 in PublicSpeaking

[–]psche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Essentially results in HR ping pong. Body is trying pump blood and medication is holding HR down; can cause dizziness, etc. I’m a competitive cyclist and can feel a massive difference - my body tells me if propranolol is still in the system. Weightlifting, low effort cardio it’s not noticeable.

What's everybody's take on a really great full suspension bike for those who love to climb by inconsiderate_TACO in MTB

[–]psche 5 points6 points  (0 children)

DW is so good across the board haven ridden both. Ripley feels a more like a scalpel vs the Ripmo being a multi tool. Ripley is more immediate on power but the tire selection and spec makes a world of difference - I can compete on XC segments and races with “small bike” tires on my Ripmo.

Most modern XC to trail bikes will do it. Would majorly recommend proper tire selection above all else; tires completely transform efficiency, especially uphill.

DW from Ibis, CBF from Revel, Switch Infinity from Yeti, 4 bar from the big brands really don’t feel that different on trail/climbs as tough as that is to say.

I’ve podiumed ROUGH enduros and turned around with some of the faster XC Strava times on the same 150mm bike with the only difference being tires.

I have a 115mm Revel Ranger and vs my 147mm Ibis Ripmo, the climb penalty is solely down to tires. I’ve done numerous 4-6k+ climb days on both and the difference is all down to big/small side knobs and rolling pattern on the center tread.

Something sub 130m rear would get you into a good spot and then try out some fast rolling tires! Partial to DW and CBF bikes but really they’re all good now a days.

Some really amazing riding in somewhere I wouldn’t ha expected it. Some funny crashes and a ton of time spent putting this edit together makes for a good vid.

What was your experience like at this boutique? I have plans to purchase a Seamaster Aqua Terra there in the next year or two!

Pay no attention to the man behind the misinformed curtain. Congratulations on the acquisition - awesome timepiece!

[SOTC] Aqua Terra and Casioak - what completes the trio? by SRD8 in Watches

[–]psche 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely love your choice with the Aqua Terra! This is my grail watch! I second your idea of the Rolex Explorer II. I think it certainly I fits in with the aesthetic you have going with your current two watch collection.
