TROPHY CASE

Thought Reddit might like this bottle launcher (sometimes exploder) my dad built. Growing up with his many contraptions was the best. by oryanyoungin videos

We haven't tried that yet, but I think it would work as long as the layers of duct tape were consistent. A weak spot would rupture.

I don't understand why I cannot click on Twitter links on Reddit. Took me 10 minutes to find the photo on another source. In case anyone else has that problem.

You live in N.C.? and you shoot photos? Man, FTK, Focus, Pink Crack, Low Card and others would take your photos if you shoot even half-decent. Get to it mate, start e-mailing people.

Quantum T2 flashes? If so, I usually blast out the photo much like yours and variations of it. Skate mags eat it up for some reason. (Not saying you shouldn't learn different flash techniques though).

Nice, Randy has some major pop. Reminds me of Randy's backside flip photo Sam shot in the 2009 Midwest article. That one didn't get an upvote, yours does.

When is the last time an American raced in a F1 Grand Prix?

Edit: Five years apparently.

Wow. Nope, you're wrong.

This guy is an insane pool skater by SenorPantiesin skateboarding

[–]oryanyoung 0 points1 point ago

Really good. I don't see the "insane" in it though. This guy is really smooth at skating big walls for sure. You may be interested in watching the Lifeblood or Bacon videos if you like this kind of skating. They have some young guys that fit the word "insane."

"... Plans to get his brother out of jail as soon as possible." ummm what? Pretty sure he has no say in that predicament.

Bicycle Shorts, are they super necessary? If not, what do you wear for multi-day trips? by NotACatLadyISwearin bicycletouring

[–]oryanyoung 5 points6 points ago

For RAGBRAI (the only extended ride I have done) I wear a pair of khaki pants cut off into shorts. I went down a hand full of slip-and-slides, sweated in them and spilled plenty of beer on them for seven days straight. I suppose they are the common fabric for khakis, although I know the fabric varies. Cost me $3 at goodwill. They work great for me, as a male. One of the females I ride with wears the same thing and I haven't heard any complaints from her. I think about it like this, if you are riding a lot and have a bike seat that fits you well, then you are getting toned properly for riding longer and will be comfortable in just about anything.

do not show Hollywood this list. They'll ruin it.

Looking for well written anthropology books for the layman. What are your suggestions? by HipsterHillbillyin Anthropology

[–]oryanyoung 1 point2 points ago

I don't know any layman textbooks other than maybe those used for intro courses in archeology and anthropology. For fieldwork memoirs, you might be interested in "Mad Dogs, Englishmen, and the Errant Anthropologist: Fieldwork in Malaysia." -by Douglas Raybeck.

Summer Skate plans. Anyone in these areas? Maybe meet up to skate... by oryanyoungin skateboarding

[–]oryanyoung[S] 0 points1 point ago

Just buy a ticket and bring a tent. cheap living and you will meet great people. I was very nervous and not so confident the first trip I took, but if I knew then how easy it is to do this I would have done more than just stay in Barcelona the whole time.

Yea Helsinki skaters are great. skated with Perus dudes in Spain and wow, so good. Last time I was in Finland it was snowy so I skated the underground skate park (after walking past the mostly unmarked entrance ten times) Copenhagen will be a first for me so I will check out this park. Thanks!

In Europe this Summer. Found cheap ticket into Nice, France, which raises this question for me... by oryanyoungin formula1

[–]oryanyoung[S] 2 points3 points ago

Not free, but not a bad price at all! Would you happen to know if there is areas for cheap camping within public transport distance? (I know am pushing my luck a little with this asking without researching).
