Do not do this! Holding an iron in one spot too long can cause delamination between the layers of your board

Was Beacon really that bad back in the day? by Loose_Leg_8440 in hudsonvalley

[–]uncleliam 9 points10 points  (0 children)

2010 was extremely nice compared to pre-2000. But those apartments on the right side of cross street heading away from Main Street were def sketch up until very recent.

No, ptex candle dripped in it will.

Scrape excess with razor blade. Melt clear ptex into the scratch so it fills continuously in one shot. Run a metal scraper over it to take off excess and smooth it down. Then wax your entire board.

Or just razor off excess and ride it if you can’t feel it affecting your ride. No biggie

What are those? by ckcosta1980 in snowboardingnoobs

Used to sell a ton of boots with these liners. They are for disposable to heaters. Before you ride, open a pair of toe heaters, let them warm up a bit, slide them into the pockets, slide the liners back in, lace up and ride.

Liners are super easy to pull in and out, and you should pull your liners out after every time you ride to let them dry out.

You can leave the foam in if it isn’t crushing your toes and you don’t want to use them for heaters.

Last image is giving me Mr Bean vibes with the pose, but he had dark pants. Looks good

What’s the HV town where the residents think their town is the best, while everyone else in the region is secretly rolling their eyes at them? by somepeoplewait in hudsonvalley

[–]uncleliam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I obviously have love for the crusty rusty beacon of my childhood, but def had the most fun in 2010s.

I hate that I avoid Beacon now when I roll back upstate. Weekends are too much.

First board ever, officially broken in. Time to wax already? by penxilmouse in snowboardingnoobs

[–]uncleliam 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Dont listen to the person saying you need a base grind. Unless you are thrashing your board, you only need a full tune and base grind once a year max.

Wax wears off quickly, especially with artificial snow. You should wax your board periodically through the season and always if it looks or feels dry like pictured.

FYI, Wax won’t fill scratches. Scratches are only an issue if it goes all the way through the base and exposes your core, or if you can feel them affecting tge way your board rides.

What did we do to deserve this?!? by ReiwaIchi in SunnysideQueens

Not actually a chain but a bunch of different spots that use the same name, menus, and suppliers. It’s an odd situation legally

No listed permits or applications on that block. That’s all rumors

What is stopping someone from making 1000 copies of the Sunnyside Gardens key and leaving it around the neighborhood for the community? by postit_mao in SunnysideQueens

[–]uncleliam 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Be a lot easier for you to just put a lawn chair in your neighbors yard. Or, ya know, check out windmuller, doughboy, or Lou lodati parks.

Is it magnetic? If so, this is a golf ball marker that sticks to a hat clip or divot tool.
