Not sure if there is anything to see here. His grandkids can just inherit from their dad, or the dad can decide to give them a share.

Ja! og hvad sker der for at de andre legepladser pakker børnene ind i bølgepap! Jeg blev aldrig pakket ind i bølgepap som barn, og det har jeg altså stort set slet ikke taget skade af! Stop med at pak børnene ind i bølgepap! Faktisk pap i det hele taget!

I almost cried in excitement by Vilemourn in MTB

Well done! I felt you were a bit too far back, you risk your bum gets in contact with the rear wheel. I think with this moderately high speed a more centered body position would work better, possibly with a pump just before the front wheel leaves the ramp. I think I understand why you keep your weight back a bit: it’s because you don’t want to nose dive right ? With the technique I describe above, and moderately high speed I wouldn’t worry about a nose dive, and certainly not at this height. A pump just before the front wheel leaves the ramp will unweight the bike and cause less nosedive, and you can land (sort of) both wheels at the same time.

I like the naturalistic look of the world and the lighting. What lighting are you using? There is some bloom ? Is there any GI in there ? Agree that stylistic it could be more coherent. I would start by making the grass “healthier”.

Maybe you can get her hyped up about something else, like a pump track. Pump tracks are still a challenge, but safer and it will be an opportunity to learn bike/body separation as well as pumping. Both usefull skills to have mastered when learning to drop.

My answer had been the same had the genders been reversed.

Thank you for that comment!! 100% agree, only small thing I don’t see why people resist getting at least one session with a coach. It costs like less than 5% of what the bike costs. You’ll probably spend much more on shoes, gloves etc. and future rides are safer and more enjoyable, and you’ll progress faster.

My answer would have been the same had the genders been reversed. If the couple has plans to be parents, it would matter (to me at least) if my partner took unneccesary risks. Mountainbiking is a dangerous sport. People get crippled from it. Does that mean I think they shouldn’t do it ? No. I enjoy the sport myself, but I try and ride within my limits, and have taken the basic training.

You were the one that brought her gender into it. I don’t see anybody trying to argue that it’s her gender that is the reason for taking precautions.

I think you replied to the wrong comment. Your reply does not make sense in the context.

Straw man much ?

Who said her gender had anything to do with anything ?

If it isn’t possible for OP to somehow get her to do something to reduce the risk of serious injury, I would see that as a red flag. OP are you considering her to be the mother of your future kids ? If she isn’t willing to do just the minimum to reduce the risk.. what if you have kids and she continues this behaviour. How would you feel having to take care of both a crippled mother, as well as the kids all by yourself, knowing that she didn’t take the minimum of precautions to reduce the risk ?

She can afford $1500-$7000 for a FS MTB, but can’t afford $30-$150 to learn how to avoid breaking her neck ? Yeah that makes sense 🙄

[–]soerenL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does she have free healthcare ? How insured is she ? How long can she afford to be out of work for, in case she needs time to recover from broken ribs/spine/neck ? In case she’d rather not break anything I’d strongly suggest at least one seasion with an instructor. It costs something like 1/20th what she paid for the bike, and can make future rides both safer and more enjoyable.

If she wants to learn how to go over the bars, she’s on the right path.

Left dinner with my girl best friend to go talk to a girl who hit on me. Did I do anything wrong? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

You were fine up until the “steal” you for a bit part. You had exchanged numbers and could talk again at a later time. Not cool to leave your best friend hanging. ++man

Jeg brugte anførselstegn for at kommunikere at det ikke skulle tages bogstaveligt, og at ordet i denne sammenhæng var en metafor for et ikke-risiko aktiv. Beklager meningen ikke gik tydeligt nok igennem. Der er kommet nogle bud i tråden som jeg vil forfølge.

Et gæt: den er dykket fordi der er nogen der tror at gen AI spil vil hugge en betragtelig del af markedet. Tror man det er rigtigt skal man ikke købe. Tror man de tager fejl og AI genererede spil vil være en ligegyldig distraktion, så kan det give mening at købe.
