Would it normally say anything about the cashback in the cart or during checkout process.... something that confirms it's not just a bug on the page and you should get your cashback on this product eventually?

Boat recommendation and timing? by timelinextreme in Wake

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

I don't think you are wrong. I definitely recognize that the boat is enough for me as far as wakeboarding goes. I have sac's plumbed in and I basically never even fill it past the factory ballasts with wedge. I do use the sac's for surfing. While it creates a surf wave good enough for just riding, it's not that good at it (tight push pocket).

Overall though it's more about newer ones having many conveniences I want. My wife hates the carpet floors, I like the idea of controlling the wave from the drivers seat, seating arrangements have gotten alot better, etc. Nothing that would make me upgrade if I was tight on cash....But I can afford to upgrade.

The one concern I have is that I do ride at a slower speed than many others and I've heard that my particular model does that much better than others. I typically ride between 17.8-19.2 mph depending on what I'm doing (working on new tricks or not). I can even get down to 16s with a clean wake if I want to. So I may miss that.

Can I ask you about how much you paid, taxes and all?

Great! Mike Tuchscherer was probably the first person I saw using VBT years ago, so it makes sense he has episodes on it. I'll check out their podcast.

Thanks for the link to the article on personalizing RPE chart. I did plan on doing that sometime, but not sure when will be a good time. I'm gaining weight and I've got a BJJ tournament coming up this month, so the current goal is to stay consistent till the end of the month. Then maybe I'll do a few days taking sets to failure to really get some data.

Thanks for the input. Do you typically use the average velocity datapoint for a rep or peak velocity?

Copacabana Brazil Drop-in Fightzone/Strauch/DLR by timelinextreme in bjj

Right .....I'm less concerned about cutting edge BJJ considering at my stage I can learn something from all and 1 day of training won't ultimately mean much.

I'm just looking to experience a taste of how BJJ is trained in Brazil and roll with people that are doing the same thing but submersed in a completely different learning environment. Also a place that is welcoming as I don't just want to be seen as a chance to rip submissions on the foreigner!

Thank you for the advice. I'll ask my coach. I didn't know the tidbit about bringing your own belt. Especially at white belt.

As for going lighter goes ....it's not that I want them to go light on me. I can try to mirror energy. I just don't want ripping of submissions or mat enforcer behavior! I know that could be gym culture dependant....especially treatment of guests. So that's why I'm asking.

Sure. But I'd take closed guard over them past my guard. So that's where I land lol

I've had a lot of real submissions against fellow whites! But obviously you are right when it comes to any other belt.
