        I'm pretty sure Tabata means "eff you gaijin" in Japanese…

        I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

          Yeah, Doug made a good call on the DDP/Skogg combo.  Those really compliment one another well.  Thanks for that, Doug.

          (And thanks for the Tiger Balm suggestion, too- my wife just laughed when I said I was going out to buy some, since her mother apparently used it for everything; aches, pains, sprains, hangnails, warts, indigestion, whatever…)

                    50 pounds is impressive; nice work.  How much do you plan to lose?

                          Just completed LVL II Skogg test  2.5 min of snatches with each arm was tougher then I anticipated. My arms are pretty dead right now.

                                    like a week? pretty sure i've always got a ship notice after a few days
                                    not some sort of a preorder situation? I think they've done that in the past with short run colors and stuff.

                                        06/11/2013 - Ordered my gear

                                        06/19/2013 - received tracking number

                                        06/26/2013 - arrival

                                        Excited to receive the new gear but its  two days too late for me to use on my next adventure. Disappointed… I know they had received a ton of orders for the new color ways on their products but not sure how my order fell through the cracks
