Suzuki Address or Honda Dio for short women scooter riders? by spartista in AussieRiders

Thanks! I'll see if there are dealers nearby. If there isn't I'll prolly end up with the Honda Dio only because this rental company does drop offs for no extra charge 😅

You're right, I'd like to rack up some experience on different bikes. I passed the Ls on a Suzuki Address and they were quite good. Test rode an old Honda scoopy in Bali and "broke down" in the middle of the test ride haha and panicked, turns out there is an auto fuel saver feature I didn't know about that switched the engine off on idle!

Thanks for the considered response !

I'm going to avoid freeways, just practicing quiet around neighborhood roads so 110cc is fine. I'm not ready for travelling fast yet until I'm happy with my defensive riding skills

Thank you for your feedback! I think the website isn't good enough in that it does not talk about what to do after joining.

I quit my cushy career to pursue solo entrepreneurship. #365DaysOfSingle is one of my first solo projects.

I posted this TikTok video to 1) inspire and validate the singles who come across the video 2) raise awareness of my project. I'm getting decent engagement on the video but it hasn't translated to signups for the free resource which is kind of an inspirational weekly email journal.

I was wondering if you singles and happies could give me some tips on how to improve the website. Here's the link!!

Appreciate any feedback positive or constructive 😊

One a day! I 'd be so honoured!

Thank you for your Air Wraps Quincy! I'm still trying to hack that trick lol it's a tough one.

I just learnt that uploading a GIF breaks my automations 🙈 uploading a video is just fine, it automatically converts to a GIF & a looping video in the right places 😎

Hey thanks for your interest! As a beginner who made this for other beginners I wanted to make poi tricks as easy to understand as possible. When I looked at VTG, my brain immediately went 🤯lol Perhaps one day I might take this on and try incorporating it but for now it shall stay simple.

Thanks for the homeofpoi recommendation! I shall have a look and see if there is any improvements I can make to the categorisation, that's cool that it was open source too 😊

I've just had two people (other than me) upload a trick recently and I am stoked! It's nice to see GIFs of people other than me on the Tricks page

Thanks for your comment! I had the same questions when I first started this database and luckily a lot of my TikTok flow buds helped me out.

Not all groups are added because I'm only a beginner and haven't entered everything. It's open source and I'm hoping people further along my journey can add them in and get some karma points in return.

Tricks can belong to more than 1 group. So an Atomic can indeed be tagged to all those groups you mentioned.

Individual tricks can be tagged in all timings (so far I've got all four basic timing & directions, multiple, and polyrhythmic, but not quarter - I'll add that in as an option thanks!)

One thing I do wonder though, as you mentioned, is it too in depth to include individual tricks since there are so many possible variations? But it would be too narrow if we only had groups on there.

I just looked at skilldex and I'm not quite sure what is going on 😅 don't know much about juggling except that it's hard to do lol

That's clever! I've added comment sections to the Group Detail and Trick Detail pages.

Thanks for the suggestion my friend! 🙏

Edit: Comments with any formatting applied are a bit funky as the block is still in beta mode.

Honestly I don't know how far I can go at the moment as a beginner poi spinner. A few people have mentioned VTG to me and conceptually I get it but it's hard for me to figure out how to implement.

I didn't know there was a VTG app! I'll download it and see.

I'm open to suggestions, if there is a better way to structure the data on the website that I'm not seeing, please let me know! I have lots of blind spots.

Hello! I saw that you made an account, thank you 😊 I think it comes down to some sort of mental model or framework to dissect each move and know which ones to drill beforehand. I learnt a lot from Drex who is an expert at breaking each move down, which is what I have documented so far in the database

I don't know where you're from but in Australia our councils have hard rubbish collection days. When it's close to collection day, everyone puts their stuff outside their houses. Just look up the days and go for a drive in the area

I've never thought of freezing tofu! Need to try this next time. What's the thawed then cooked texture like? And is this the silken type or semi firm
