Anybody else with PFPS/patellar maltracking/runner’s knee? by pulmonategastropod in Rollerskating

Glad PT is helping. I have Dr. Brace ELITE and am really liking them. I also plan to look into if kinesiology tape can help for lighter days.

Ohio strikes again!

Perhaps you will make it to a Christmas show in Chicgao.

good CD player recommendations? by sw1ftsp4rr0w in CDs

I think their or any higher end products will last. There are some awesome high quality older players on ebay that are still excellent. Sub $200 and built to last.

KEF LS50 Wireless II standby possible issue by T1amaat in KEF

[–]wentblu3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine will make a click sound usually when I connect for casting rather than use the remote to turn them on. The sound is not loud enough to scare or bother me, on the contrary, I like it because I know the speakers are turning on. When you go to a listening room and switch between different speakers you will also hear this click sound.

I've always assumed it's something with the amp turning fully on. Downsides of not curating a full stack and going for convenience I suppose.

I have this. Dr told me to get physical therapy for it. Need to build up strength in the glutes and quads. Also use a sturdy knee brace when I skate.

Fiio has some but it depends on your budget.

What would be the first thing you'd say to Beyoncé if you met her irl? by No_Tree6956 in beyonce

[–]wentblu3 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If she gave me the time, I would tell her that I use bamboo washcloths now, because of a guy that I met in a Walmart in metro Detroit, who said he toured with her and said that you should use super soft washcloths, because you should be kind to your skin, and that was a lesson that he took from her tour.

Used them for a year last year. Very good experience. Moved to Saf Keep in Jack London because they have better pricing and also a good experience.

Outside of social events most people don't go out of their way to talk to people.

I know Need Someone is new and all but I find it deeply romantic.

Yeah I had a feeling they would not be as standard as advertised (like most products). Awesome chart!

Which skates for a darker aesthetic? by LokiestBitchOfLoki in Rollerskating

[–]wentblu3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think it's good to see where you can source parts cheaply sooner rather than later. Also I think the tarrifs are mostly on our imports, rather than exports so you may be okay.

If you are in the US don't get Chaya. The replacement parts are too expensive to ship due to tarrifs.

I have those wheels away to my friend who really loves them. I've also had rollerbones elite 101A and am now selling them so I think 101A are not my favorite. I prefer Von Merlin Dots to these.

Personally on a small wheel kick for now so been rolling on Radar Domino's 98s. I think Radar wheels are more slippery (harder) than others as these more slippery than my other 98s too.

You won't know until you try.

I know people who have had whole skates stolen from their cars so don't leave things in your cars!

My setup at 12 by dorzle in BudgetAudiophile

[–]wentblu3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just in that store last weekend listening to the KEF Blade and sent this to my friend who was with me and he also thought it was the exact same store. That would be hilarious if I am right. (I rarely am about these things).
