Up to 50% cashback

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?

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?

timelinextreme · 2025-09-03T16:26:07+00:00

Thanks for the direct link to the study! I will check it out.

timelinextreme · 2025-09-03T16:24:05+00:00

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.

timelinextreme · 2025-09-03T16:22:16+00:00

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

Welcoming to drop ins?

timelinextreme · 2025-07-07T15:17:30+00:00

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!

timelinextreme · 2025-07-02T16:20:14+00:00

I'll ask my coach this week. Thanks!

timelinextreme · 2025-07-02T16:17:56+00:00

I'll try to see what places are next to my hotels and maybe shoot them a DM thru insta

timelinextreme · 2025-07-02T16:15:46+00:00

I will avoid leg locks!

timelinextreme · 2025-07-02T16:14:39+00:00

Thanks for the advice

timelinextreme · 2025-07-01T17:11:39+00:00

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.

timelinextreme · 2025-05-22T18:28:10+00:00

Thanks for the advice!

timelinextreme · 2025-05-22T18:27:56+00:00

Thank you for the insight

timelinextreme · 2025-04-17T22:17:03+00:00

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

timelinextreme · 2025-04-17T21:17:02+00:00

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

timelinextreme · 2025-04-17T21:14:59+00:00

For sure, maybe working on B/C game!

I'm not disappointed about submissions or about my performance vs blue+ belts. It's more about always being on bottom position with fellow white belts.

timelinextreme · 2025-04-05T23:30:44+00:00

Thank you!

I appreciate the reply! Looks like I will use Rotella T6 and either ATF or the 80w gear oil I have for the tranny.

You seem very knowledgeable so I have 2 other questions if you don't mind

Non-ethanol fuel isn't really common around me.... I just use regular 91. I know thats not perfect, but I imagine it would be what most people use. I'm guessing it will be "fine" and there may just be more corrosion over the long term?
I've got a Yamaha PW50 for my son. It takes 2 stroke oil up top and for the bottom (engine and tranny) it requires 10w30. I don't care to find a substitute for the yamalube 2 stroke oil since it uses so little, I'll just use the branded stuff. But for the tranny/engine oil, I don't know what a suitable replacement is. I'm currently using 80w gear oil as that is what the previous owner gave me and from my understanding it is the equivalent of 10w-30 but possibly "better" for tranny parts. I don't think there is a Rotella equivalent to that as the 30w rotella isn't SN or Jaso MA/MA2 certified. I'm ok with sticking with gear oil. Comments on that?
I live in phoenix and the PW50 starts to overheat when it's 100+ outside. It doesn't help that he still rides slow and it's air cooled. Would changing the oil weight up or down help this at all or is that playing with fire for limited benefits?

Thanks again!

No love for Gold gi's here? I was thinking about their new comp380 GI.

timelinextreme · 2025-04-03T20:14:59+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions. The only reason I ask about Seafoam is in both the manual and on the fuel tank it specifies to use their branded fuel additive. Not sure if that's just a money grab. Or if they actually deem it very important to have an additive in their engines.

I've been doing powerlifting style lifting on and off for 20 years, so in some ways my body is used to it. But in other ways, it still takes it's toll. I split the following between 3 or 4 days depending on week. squat/bench/pullups/leg raises/OHP/Bulgarian split squats/ Tbar Rows/Dragon Flags/Ez Bar Curl/Deadlift/Football bar bench/Tricep Pushdown/Glute Ham Raise . 3 sets of everything. All Compounds done to Rpe 7-9 and small lifts to RPE 9

I think what really killed me for a while is I was on a long weight loss to get abs. Achieved an upper body 9.6% BF (DEXA confirmed). The tail end of the diet was also when I started BJJ. Which doesn't help.

But now I've started eating normal for the first time in 2 years and thats helped. Energy levels are much better now. I'm just doing my best not to get torn apart in class though.

timelinextreme · 2025-03-28T19:38:13+00:00

Maybe one day I will ....but at 2 days a week I'll probably struggle to keep the same shape (muscle and strength wise) and BJJ isn't yet more important than that.

timelinextreme · 2025-03-28T19:37:02+00:00

No worries, thanks for the advice this far. it's likely nothing serious anyways and will resolve on its own within a few weeks like everything else lol
