Just curious if you were a paraglider first who decided to get into paramotoring or if you started with paramotoring? I bought an old wing years ago to learn how to kite and had fun teaching myself how to kite . I planned on jumping straight into paramotoring but saw so many videos at the time of guys really struggling when there engine went out or at least worried about it so I went to my local paraglide spot and talked to one of the instructors there who does both and his opinion was if you have the location near you to learn to paraglide , that learning how to free fly first and then stepping up to the paramotor was the best route . I got side tracked with some injuries the past few years and have been unable to pursue either but ive started to heal up and trying to decide what the best route for me may be , im fortunate that I live near Torrey pines in san diego so i have the ability to learn to paraglide at a world class spot but ideally paramotoring is what I want to get into . Thanks for your input I appreciate it.

So im really close to pulling the trigger on a firefly , ive never done any set ups or fret work on any of my guitars myself and i see alot of your posts here where guys are mentioning cleaning up the frets and doing minor set up work to get them dialed in, do you guys have any suggestions on any kits to get me started so when I get my firefly and can get it dialed in ? Im pretty handy and have been working on surfboards most of my life I just dont have any guitar specific tools and figured thats a good excuse to buy some tools and so that I can convince myself to buy a firefly 😉 ive got my eye on the 338 right now

I've talked myself out of grabbing a firefly or 10 because I dont want to " get a lemon" and be stuck with it , but you guys keep posting bad ass guitar after bad ass guitar! You're killing me smalls 😂 keep it up so I convince myself i need to pull the trigger

My little dude took down his own tin of wild planet sardines in water today and loved it , now ive got to double down on the supply because ive got another little dude getting into my stash haha I personally have only had wild planet so I dont know what im missing , but are wild planets sort of the best "budget sardines" to stock up on? They havent been in-stock at my Costco recently but they are around $3 a tin at walmart. What are your go to budget sardines to stock up on? Thanks for dine wisdom

I found a nice used acoustic guitar near me for sale on craigs list with 2 sticker right on top and partially on the binding , basically a new guitar where the guy slapped 2 ugly stickers on it, is ot doable to lightly hear them up and get them off without messing up the finish? Thabks for any info you guys might have

Ive been looking at grabbing an inflatable for a few years and I always seem to end up on boats to go looking at the Saturn's. Anyone here have a Saturn ? Curious what the real world feed back is. The have a wide model that that Ive had my eye on for a few years now. I live near a harbor and am looking for a boat to cruise around the harbor in , their wide model show a 40 inch inside width on the 11 foot model
