Thanks ! :slight_smile:
I wish I could find a Prototipo deck (and more money, because I have a lot of going on right now). If your offer still stands in a year, I will take you up on it. Full Gulf custom like that Flux. :slight_smile:

I was planning to but discovered a company called ā€œalphagvrdā€ that make camera/lenses skin with 3M vinyls. I asked their main branch in Asia if they could make me a custom combo, they loved the idea and delivered this one-off for my camera and a few lenses. I donā€™t know if they usually accept custom orders thought.

Why do we have such expensive hobbies ? R6 looks great too ! :slight_smile: You already got some Canon lenses I guess ?

Ah thatā€™s pretty cool!

Ugh I know itā€™s a constant problem.

I have some canon lenses but for crop sensor, so I will need to probably buy two new ones. Main reasons for the R6 over anything else is because itā€™s pretty much the best camera on the market right now for the money.

$2500 for the body, and itā€™s bettery in nearly every way compared to the Sony offerings. Not sure how familiar you are with its performance but it is truly impressive.

Edit: Also I love Canon color science

Yea for the money I share your opinion on the R6. The better Sony models are too costly and the A7iv is taking its time to hit the market.

Iā€™m glad Sony now have some competitions in the Hybrid camera market, monopoly is only good for companies.

Yeah and the Ax series donā€™t compare to the R6 barely at all

Maybe the a7IV will bring us the combo of the A7S3 and the A7R3 that we want. Iā€™ve been a Canon user for almost 10 years now so Iā€™m comfortable continuing to support Canon. In addition, the RF and EF glass are still some of the best on the market

even less of a reason to not give jason any money.

No doubt, 60D+ is a better ESC in every regard. Thatā€™s an easy choice to make since JayPo decided to hike up prices during this chip shortage.

your censoring sucks.

Especially because youā€™re using a see through marker (iphone?)

I have the cutoffs set super high. Thermal start at 95 and untouchable hard cutoff. Melt it away while I ride into the sunset.

Jeez lol and itā€™s never like cut out on you or anything at those temps? Surely the chips are like almost melting

Thatā€™s always the very end of my ride after about an hour of pushing it so I try not to let it happen for too long. Summer definitely has had a big effect on it.

Lol gotcha

To their point, that carbon looks absolutely nutsā€¦ in that photo could be forged? I doubt it but their carbon has always been great and having owned one and my brother currently owns one canā€™t complainā€¦ now about that priceā€¦ they are absolutely insane. No way those specs even come close to that price in terms of parts or justification. Maybe if it was close to a gtr price then I could see it but a one piece carbon board and enclosure doesnā€™t justify that priceā€¦ sorry evolve you have done it this time being as expensive as a lacroix

You ride a lot. When is it okay to ride half shell vs full face? Iā€™m going to only be commuting at 15-20mph, max 25mph.

I donā€™t know dude.
depends on how pretty you are.

I am a beautiful motherfucker so I got to protect my assets.

but seriously depends on the ride I am going on an the vibeā€¦

I go full face more when I know I will be going 25-30.
I think it is pretty rare I go much over 30.

so full face on those rides.

25-20 Iā€™m probably going to go half shelf.
but it depends on the board.

with the mountain board I need to see down better and I donā€™t go past 25 so I prefer half shell.

same with the little kicktails. wanna see my feet.

in the winter the TSG is king because coldā€¦
