I just snagged an iPhone 11, so effin’ stoked I haven’t gotten a new phone since the 7+ came out, hopefully it’ll serve me well during the ski season
 
First bass with a non-warped neck in forever. Been looking around the guitar shop every week for so long and I finally found the perfect one so I’m hyped. I barely had to spend anything too with gift cards and trade ins so I can still afford skis, I was worried for a while

gearing up for the season

With mask restrictions fogging was a big issue last year. These goggles should help with that, plus for touring it'll be nice to just pop them open instead of taking them off every time.

Went camping on a rainy weekend and realized I forgot to bring boots, had to make a stop at REI as soon as my Vans were soaked through.

Best Buy had the goods today. Showed up at like 7 and was at least 100-150 in line and still got one. People have been camped out all night in 50 degree F and a downpour lol. Turns out most people were there for PS5. Only reason I'm getting this is so I can do cross play for Battlefield with my pc friends

Congrats, you are now a member of the PNW club. Welcome.
 
Just bought a secondhand Nikon Z6. Sending it to the US to get a ha mod. I self modded a cheaper camera a year ago which turned out to only be usable with very few lenses.

Oh heck ya, I'll be moving to Horseshoe Bend in a few months so I have a lot of runs on the main in my future. The Salmon is sick too.

H-alpha is a low energy wavelenght at around 565nm. This is at the edge of our human perception. Camera sensors have filters in front of them that allow around 20% of h-alpha transmission. A h-alpha mod will allow nearly 100% h-alpha transmission. This is interesting as most emission nebula in space have clouds of burning hydrogen which emmit H-alpha. Any astro images you see that contain a lot of red nebula were most likely shot with a h-alpha mod.

Their not Klints but don’t blame u, the logo is pretty much the same just turned 90°.

They’re SGN skis made in Norway and they produce the prettiest skis i’ve ever seen, which only look better in real life

Is this forward pressure set wrong? Might be hard to see in the video but the toe lug of the boot floats above the afd plate when not pushed down.

Nice! I almost picked up some 16s for cheap but really wanted the red ones. Tyrolia has converted me from Pivots finally.

Interesting. Curious as to why/how did they do it?

Your AFD has not been set high enough so you still have slack there. Posi 3 on the front screw of the toe turned clockwise will raise it. I raise it without the boot in it till the bottom visible screws are becoming partly covered by the raising AFD. Then place the boot in the binding with a business card placed under the toe above the AFD before you click in. Then yank HARD on the rear cuff of the boot to try and wheelie the toe and then test to see if you can easily remove that business card. Should be tight enough/no slack so that the business card has resistance even when you’re pulling back hard on the boot cuff.

I usually find the bottom screw ends up being 1/3 to 1/2 covered by the raised AFD after adjustment. Should look similar to this.

1014045.jpegThe forward pressure gauge is a scribed area on the back of the heel and is correct if the ends of the black plastic area beside it land within that area. Easy to get the right forward pressure by lifting that lever on the heel allowing the heel to slide back and forth and then moving it forward until it contacts the boot sitting in the toe about to “click in” to the binding. Simply snap the heel lever down and it should look into one of the notches. Then actually click into the binding and check the scribed area vs the end of the plastic beside it. Looks like this adjusted properly.
