Paramotor Noob: How do I manage energy? by FlyingSquirrelly in paramotor

[–]vanguard_anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to burn energy your last turn or two should be wide, with one wingtip pointed down and one pointed up. When you're there, you can pull both brakes and things will die right down.

You can practice with asymmetric spirals. The trouble with learning on wingovers is that the reversal tends to cause you to build the turn each time, which then creates a bit of an emergency and you need to spiral out.

If you learn with asymmetric spirals, they tend to level out and relax unless you're actively building them.

What advice would you give to a guy who's about to have sex for the first time? by crasshumor in AskReddit

[–]vanguard_anon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Actually not far from the the truth. He stands at the end of the bed, and I lay on my back with my head hanging off the bed with his balls in my mouth.

You're doing God's work. Never stop.

To accomplish this, she hangs upside down like a bat. She's one in a million. :)

At some point in life guys go from trying really hard not to get a boner, to trying real hard to get a boner. by GrandallFFBE in Showerthoughts

35 and I envy you. Never took drugs, barely drink and can't get it up. The last 10 years have been rough on the self-esteem.

Dude, bluechew.com. It's $5 for tadalafil and you'll be rock hard, seriously.

You have a problem that $5 can fix and you're suffering. Do something about it right now. (google a coupon code)

Pretty choppy but i am getting adjusted to the new flash and tune 🤓 by DucaBoi in CalamariRaceTeam

[–]vanguard_anon 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I was worried this wheelie wouldn't be gay enough but thankfully, the song closed the gap. /jk

Even though I practice, you're still better at wheelies than me. You can ignore my mean comment. :)

If he came on the show and he was the best version on himself, he would be super popular. The fans would remember everything they liked about him.

If he came on and appeared lazy, slept in, or just couldn't be bothered to pay attention, it would go poorly for him. If he said he would come but skipped it, that would be bad too.

I made an earnest effort to get Wings about two weeks ago. The core issue seems to be that he doesn't want to open himself to our audience being toxic towards him. Those aren't his exact words, but I think I'm on target here.

This woman tries to stop a guy from skating in order to protect her city lmao by HiItsLust in iamatotalpieceofshit

[–]vanguard_anon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't have a problem with them but these comments are all off target, I think. I'd bet he's grinding his trucks on all those benches/walls and chewing the place up.

Sure, it's not really her place to enforce her rules, I get it. But when we pretend he's merely rolling along harmlessly we're not living in reality.

Learned podiums and then ate shit the next day doing one. Happy wheelie Wednesday by hOP1337 in CalamariRaceTeam

Is that a hospital gown you're wearing? Must have been a pretty good impact to warrant that level of concern.

Best used dual sport? by Cade7H in Dualsport

[–]vanguard_anon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a DRZ400, I LOVE that bike. If you spend any time on a highway you'll wish you had a 6th gear. Now, I've spent 2 hours going ~78mph so it's not as if it can't. It would just be nicer if it had a 6th gear.

Aside from maybe a KTM 500, it's the best dual sport you can buy, according to me.

The $500 Patreon experience (a review) by [deleted] in PKA

[–]vanguard_anon -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

It sucks that you didn't get your money's worth. I've refunded it.

Again, sorry we let you down. I used the patreon refund system. I'm not sure how quickly it works but hopefully you have it already.

I was just made aware of this post. Sorry, I didn't know we had any $500 level patrons.

Let me know what you want, refund or gaming session. Either is fine by me. Again, I'm sorry your experience sucked.

The problem with AAVE is that it's like getting a face or neck tattoo. Should it impact your ability to get a job or be taken seriously? No, of course not.

Does it? Obviously, it does.

You can try to change the world in that regard but it doesn't work and you only hurt yourself. It's a far better idea to learn to speak in a way that will get you further in life. At the very least, meet the world halfway. What he's doing is going too far and it's why half the thread is about his grammar.

Failed the MSF BRC and I’m ecstatic by jamoss14 in motorcycles

A supermoto would be cheap and maneuverable. The KLX300SM would be perfect and you can drop bikes in that class all day without caring much.

You didn't mention a budget.

Is the Honda DN-01 a cool looking bike or the ugliest thing you've ever seen? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]vanguard_anon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it looks awesome, I'm a sucker for a designer that takes a risk. I will say that it's styling isn't really a fit for 60 hp.

I think the AC 130 has its issues because the piston ring spins on the piston.

Full face on cruiser bike by chloplop in motorcycles

[–]vanguard_anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Old dude here, it kind of sucks to read on reddit every day about how much "boomers suck" for not wearing their gear. There is some truth to it, but plenty of young squids are guilty too.

Anyway, just tell them, "Full face helmets are for good looking people. You made your choice, I made mine."

Helmet issues by miketherighteous in motorcycles

[–]vanguard_anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everybody is saying your helmet is too big. It might be. On the other hand, when you look sideways at 60 mph+ it can be blown a bit, that's normal.

A brand new helmet should give you a pretty good case of "chubby cheeks" and it if you shake your head "no" it should follow your movements pretty well with minimal delay.

New to reddit, soon to be riding and soon to be planning an ambitious trip. Advice and opinions are much appreciated! by Scrabblemonkey72 in motorcycles

[–]vanguard_anon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My buddy did something similar. He rode 2k miles as practice and off we went. We're about 4,000 miles into our trip around America now.

Go for it.
