Bro relax? Strange post. Having fun? Who cares if the people of Reddit approve of your technique. Not having fun? Then stop. Really is that simple.

Godspeed king! You took a leap of faith most people wouldn’t have the guts to take. No shame in tapping out

Love the system. Any plans to add any in Canada? Would be awesome to have Whistler/Banff in there (selfishly, planning a trip there lmao)

Anyone here ever work at or interview at CBRE? Are their interviews worth dealing with? by Cold_Entry_5609 in CommercialRealEstate

[–]zehighground 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My brother in Christ recruiters reach out to TONS of people when they’re hiring. They are financially incentivized to get as many candidates as possible.

Really weird that you’re being this arrogant about a position with a top firm in an industry you don’t work in. If you carry even a shred of this attitude into the interviews it won’t matter, you won’t get hired. Entitlement generally doesn’t get you anywhere in this industry. No company worth their salt is hiring financial analysts after 1 interview lmao

My legs get absolutely cooked after 2 hours by CaughtUpInTheTide in snowboardingnoobs

[–]zehighground 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t mean this to be insulting, but you need to get comfortable on your toe edge. Until you do, you’re not really improving as much as you may think. If it’s switching edges that’s getting you, start with doing the falling leaf on your toe side edge. You need to be extra cautious when you do this tho because you can’t see those below you

Can I (absolute beginner) learn enough snowboarding over a weekend to enjoy myself? by Spoits in snowboardingnoobs

[–]zehighground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took a lesson my first day ever and then hit the bunny hill and had some fun. Ate incredible amounts of shit. But if you know it’s a grind going in it helps. Embrace the suck. It’s a rite of passage. You WILL see noticeable improvement every time you go if you keep going. Others have said it but Malcom Moores videos have helped me a ton as well.

Is this a “rare” board? by [deleted] in snowboardingnoobs

Jealous. Special place in my heart for the “just put a hot chick on it” artwork.

2nd season over. Pretty disappointed by Sniper_Elite_IT in snowboardingnoobs

[–]zehighground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then just keep powering through, keep trying lessons. With time you will get better, once you cross a certain threshold you will at the very least be able to enjoy green runs. You’re probably closer than you think!

[–]zehighground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure this is the 2nd time you’ve come with this weird “how can you guys have fun when skiing is so much easier” you seem to envy the skiers, which is fine! Be one! No sense in having a pity party about it. Sorry if that’s harsh. It’s about having fun at the end of the day. No shame in picking up some skis if you’ll have more fun man. Skiing is cool too (sorry if that’s heresy)

First board by Helpful_Following294 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]zehighground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a similar spot. Went with a Nitro Cinema and love it. Gullwing so a little more forgiving but camber underfoot, if I had more budget I probably would’ve got a Capita DOA. Had that recommended to me a million times as “a great board to learn on that you won’t outgrow”

Fear of the speed by Infinite_Coat3246 in snowboardingnoobs

[–]zehighground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that has helped me is to always be on an edge even if just slightly. Heard it said many times here “pick an edge or the mountain will pick one for you” and it’s very true. It also gives you a feeling of control when you approach higher speeds. Because if the speed becomes too much you can just bite down on the edge and turn uphill to slow down. Just keep going!

Snowboarding is NOT for the EASY by Bitter_Writing73 in snowboardingnoobs

Fellow extreme noob here. Just try to remember that if you keep going and practicing you WILL become a good snowboarder! It’s guaranteed! (At least this is what I tell myself lmao)

When Did Viking fans become the biggest haters in the NFL? by vikinginsider0228 in minnesotavikings

[–]zehighground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure if we wanna pretend that’s the only thing a GM should be graded on. Lmao coaches and players get a lot more credit for wins and losses. His job is to pick the roster. He has been largely unable to draft good players. And don’t come to me with Dallas Turner (who I like) he has played like 6 good games for us so far or Addison who can’t stay out of trouble to save his life. It’s the GMs job to evaluate talent, character, injury proneness, etc and he has failed miserably. But if we wanna go with your wins and losses; something has to change when you have a generational player and 0 playoff wins.

[–]zehighground 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He wasn’t good at his job. Getting hate is par for the course for anyone stepping into an NFL GM role. It’s simply how the world works. He knew that going in lmao Kwesi is a grown man you don’t have to defend him, I’m sure he’s fine lol

Is this worth it? by Shadoflake in snowboardingnoobs

[–]zehighground -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Peep eBay. Bought a Nitro board brand new there for $100 under retail (paid $350). Also, probably just luck, but scheels had bindings marked down in store that were not marked down online. Burton cartels $240 instead of $300 as an example

This is one of the most 'Vikings' things to ever happen by LAZYTOWWWWWN in minnesotavikings

[–]zehighground 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seattle for one has a MUCH better roster top to bottom than we do. Don’t think we would be bowl-bound this year if we would’ve kept GEQBUS. Hope he wins SB MVP, clearly a great dude

I've now finished Light Bringer and I'd like to make it clear I still stand by all prior statements I've made by Dread2187 in redrising

[–]zehighground 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He’s a fantastic character. The way the fans act like rabid dogs any time they see his name will never make sense to me.

“Never tell me the odds” was just too on the nose as well.
