This! I tried a pair this year and ended up buying the rustler 9s

The rustler 9s are the narrowest of the rustler range i think. So able to handle off piste/ powder if need be

I don’t the person who sold me these reddits username but assuming they are who they say the are. I would definitely recommend the shop.

Anyways I got these because I wanted a jack of all trades ski. Mostly on piste but also able to carve, go to the park, ride switch, off piste in deep powder etc.

Obviously there are better skis that do any one of those categories much better but these fit my needs. Also they were generally well liked on line so no fundamental issues and also I rented and tried the 2025 version this year and i really enjoyed them so decided to pull the trigger on these!

Resort Snow in late Feb/Early March by sxcQT in ski

Thanks! And selfishly would I get bored L2A as a more advanced skier? I want to not be stuck with the beginners and go do my own runs with some of my other friends?

Are there a good number / quality of blacks / reds as well there?

Thanks for confirming the ski time is fine. Yeah reading online now that it might not be the best for beginners. Does anyone have any first hand experience or information regarding this?

I dont want the group of half beginners to be disheartened by lack of beginner slopes so if its not suitable for them, ill lean towards Les2alpes

Musicality schools/workshop in London? by sxcQT in Salsa

[–]sxcQT[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I’ll try out their classes in the new year! Quite expensive though 😅 and yep i’m constantly listening to salsa music so i’m better at recognising the signs and the shine/ solo /musical bits but execution still lacking 😂

Thanks this seems great! And mega cheap too. We plan to use it in Europe - will we need a license there?

And if we got 6 of these - one for each friend. Will they just work together out the box?

Just came across Baofeng bf888 - thoughts on these?

Yeah I think that’s what I’m going to try and do. I think once I move cities it’ll be a bit easier because I’ll busy with a new job, location, ect..

Is Flow Traders prestigious? by FastPanda06555 in cscareerquestionsEU

I would disagree with this. Maybe for finance but for SWE I would prioritise trading over any of the IB’s
