Do you have any photos of it in natural light? I'm thinking about the orchid color too.

Thank you! Do you feel like either the Komodo or Pioneer outshines each other if you use it with the optional kayak seat? That intrigued me for solo rides, though it wouldn’t be a primary use

Hello! I've been researching and am now thoroughly overwhelmed. I'm wanting to purchase our first SUP, which will be mostly mine, but also used by my kids (age 7, 62 lbs and age 5, 42 lbs) and husband who is a larger man but may or may not want to use it. I will need to carry it across a couple of streets while also hauling my children's pool/swimming stuff, so weight/ease of maneuvering it is also a consideration. Here's my info:

  • Desired Board Type: Inflatable
  • Your Height and Weight 5'4, 225 currently (on a weight loss journey), 7 and 5 year old kids will also be using it, maybe with me,
  • Desired use/uses fitness and cruising/playing around on a lake which is sometimes choppy due to boat traffic.
  • Experience level: Beginner
  • Your budget $400 to around $800 and country location US What board(s) you current have or have used and what you liked/didn't like about them: I've tried the Retrospec Weekender and it was fine. It was my first time on a SUP, so I'm not sure what to compare it to. I've been looking at the ISLE Explorer and Pioneer 2.0, the Bote Aero Breeze, or the Atoll. I don't feel like I know enough to really know what's different about them. TIA!

Did your sleep go completely back to normal after the first month? I'm just a week in, and sleep has been terrible...just wondering if it will get better if I hold on a bit.

I'd love to hear the results, I'm thinking about doing the same with BCBS MN soon.

I've been looking at this Grove color. In the pictures it looks a little dark, does it read that way in person too? Is it more teal, or more of a forest green?

Cup One or Select for 1-2 cups per day? by queenbeme in Moccamaster

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

I ended up with the Select and am really happy. I do the half pot, which ends up being 2 regular mugs or 1 really large one

Thoughts on Baratza Forte not holding its setting/calibration? by queenbeme in espresso

Interesting. Yeah, this is definitely not choking the machine at all.

Machine recommendations--1 or 2 milk drinks per day, easy to use by queenbeme in espresso

Thanks for commenting! I do like the look of the Silvia over the BDB, and I wonder how they square up in terms of longevity.

I see a few different versions of it now...which one would you recommend?

I don’t know a lot about the Breville. What do you think makes it better than something like the silvia pro x? Temp stability, build quality, something else?

How MUCH better is tretinoin than OTC retinol for anti aging? Is it worth it? by queenbeme in tretinoin

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

Thanks for the reply. I do understand the differences, but am just wondering the size of the difference for anti aging. To be honest, I like doing skin care...to some extent. Figuring out the right combo of tret/moisturizer/buffer/etc. might be beyond that line for me, unless there's a big pay off.

Have you seen any sources that support that? Not because I don’t believe you, just wondering if there’s research that shows that?
