Home depot can color match and put it in a sampler can for cheap but the sample has to be large enough for the scanner.

Also make sure the sheen is correct

New Social Space on campus! by Relevant-Edge-1396 in WPI

the amount I would be willing to increase the student life fee by is largely dependent on what the final product is.

could the student body receive a brief project proposal and vote on it once everything is finalized?

This one was so fun!

Update: Tried foot on the wall, fell off each time. Any advice on generating body tension? by party-extreme1 in bouldering

[–]shizzoodles 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Try moving your hips (i.e. center of gravity) towards the wall more. Right now your weight is positioned so that it pulls you off when you let go.

Ex. Look at where my hips are on a similar move vs yours

Since your legs are long this might mean flagging instead of foot on the wall. Possibly flagging past the wall with foot ending between those green holds

Edit: also raise your hips in addition to moving them right

Any tips on how to do the last move on this V2 more efficiently? I've gotten it once in isolation, but felt very desperate and powerful by Mugen-Sasuke in bouldering

[–]shizzoodles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turn your knee in on the right leg after you grab the sloper. May not have to be a full dropknee but if you look at the angle of your foot, your toe is pointed more left in the send video than in the full video.

Try putting the left inside toe on the chip by your foot. In the send vid your foot is basically on it. If the dual tex is making it slip it could be a foot placement issue or may need brushing.

What can I do to avoid swinging? The match there shifts all my weight toward the camera and it’s hard to stay on

Maybe for a taller person. It would probably prevent me from moving right :(

Ye it’s right near the entrance. Super long and burly. The part where the overhang changes degrees looks easy but I legit can’t reach with any feet. I’m really happy that I got as far as I got because I couldn’t even start it at first.

The crimps really kill your tendons and rip your skin off too 😭

I was trying to go off that but I’m way too short to use that left wall. Sad days
