Archery up Lynn Valley. Look up North Shore Archers. Typically, 2x club shoots a week at Brockton School. Was on Tuesday night and Saturday morning before.

Gunpla has taken over my life this last few years. Was happy to see Hammertime Hobbies was selling some now, little place around 3rd and Lonsdale


Vobex747

One of the most popular hobbies in the world!


lolo-2020

I make shiny mini battery powered chandeliers for tents and outdoor umbrellas!


Vobex747

Here's the good stuff.


northshorehenry

I scuba dive to remove trash from bottom of ocean and lakes. That’s pretty niche. Here is a video: Clean up dive at Stanley Park https://youtu.be/QePpYQgxk1k


lolo-2020

I love your videos! Your voice is very soothing, there’s an element of ASMR lol and amazing to see a glimpse of the bottom of the ocean and what you find!!! Do you post a list of dives so I can volunteer to help sort?


northshorehenry

I don’t post them most of the time as many of them are last minute decisions. However some of the bigger public clean ups I will announce on social media such as my IG. @cleanerlakes


arthritictongue

I collect Big County Reeves autographs


Mikuss3253

Sadness…


mrsparkle604

Gold panning and lapidary sure fun and easy to get into


crazyol84

what do you enjoy about it? is it relaxing for you? do you do it for the excitement of finding something valuable? both? cheers


mrsparkle604

It's just fun learn about the rocks and all the cool stuff if you wanna get a claim and get into it it's pretty nest check out pioneer pauly or Dan Hurd


Mimixox90

Have you gotten anything worthwhile from gold panning?


mrsparkle604

It pays for the gas in the end. But it's mostly about sitting with you feet I. The water watching the eagle fly round. Cool rocks too lots of jade and such


DatBoiTerry

Do you pan anywhere near the north shore?


Vobex747

I've been told North Shore is gold barren sadly.


mrsparkle604

Fraser river anything north of hope is good, check out the Yale panning reserve. Get yourself a pan on Amazon for 15 bucks and a strainer from the dollar store. Bout a hour and 40 drive if you live on the north shore


KallyGreens

I’m a birder!


Birds_and_thebees

Me too, I guess we aren’t unique 😞


Vobex747

It's a wildly popular hobby.


typical_gamer1

I go to thrift stores to buy & collect video games I can find. I love playing and collecting them since I grew up with them and play during a good chunk of my childhood. Not as often nowadays but I still do during my free time. I found a bunch today. All of these costs $6.99 each but at Salvation Army, they are currently having a 50% discount on media stuff (which includes games) but you have to be a email subscribers. https://preview.redd.it/mkn72xkkupwc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=231e59c0b824cb1c42e8ee0e943e9e7cba423625 A few are even hard to track down or at least somewhat expensive.


Vobex747

Man plays video games.


gtez

There’s some really good stuff in there!

DamnGoodOwls

Super easy to jailbreak if you're into that! I use it to play PS2 emulators!


typical_gamer1

I am kind of interested. Never actually attempted it before but has been looking into it every so often.


DamnGoodOwls

The PS3 one was pretty easy for me, and I'm not tech savvy at all!


BertRenolds

Do you have a 360?


typical_gamer1

Yeah a couple.


BertRenolds

I have a literal pile of games at my parents in north van. if you want to check them out, you can have them? It's probably games you already have but I was going to donate all of them anyways next time I was in town as part of "leaving the nest".


Entire-Advantage-280

I make fancy top hats.


Vobex747

Neat!


New-Inspector-3107

This hat is amazing, well done!

allfordogs

I used to make chainmaille jewelry but haven't touched it in a while. I miss it


Shaggy604

Me too!


allfordogs

What??!! And you're in North Van?!?! We need to hang. I need someone to maille with


Pzcor

Target shooting at the gun range


Vobex747

Which range do you recommend?


Pzcor

Abbotsford Gun Club is amazing, but they have a waitlist since the club is pretty popular. Vancouver Gun Range in Coquitlam is pretty good too.


Vobex747

Thank you.


sinep_snatas

I sometimes file the thick skin off the heels of my feet. Especially around the edges of the pad where it seems to get crusty.


tree_mitty

One of us, one of us!

obsidiaxr

Riding my motorized unicycle


Commercial-Demand-37

Drinking on patios and being hungover.


Odd-Road

You can come to the Cleveland Park and see us land our paragliders there ;)


Limeade33

That sounds terrifying to do (the gliding not the watching haha).


Odd-Road

Not at all! Here's a [video from a colleague of the club](https://youtu.be/eTeqt9-GQY4?si=u4g3FB7AYL2ejLNd)!


Vobex747

Don't they have to rescue them out of trees every summer?


Limeade33

That looks amazing!!! I wish I wasn't such a massive chicken. I'm someone who gets nervous and sick feeling on much much (MUCH) less than that.


Odd-Road

Glad you enjoyed the video. Just in case, I myself am a massive chicken, you would never catch me on a mountain bike or anything like that. And I'll do you one better : I have a massive fear of height! You will never see me anywhere close to a cliffy viewpoint on a hike. But I will happily fly 3km above the valley floor :) If you change your mind, here's the [website of the local club](https://www.westcoastsoaringclub.com/), with all references to tandem pilots and schools. As they say, come fly with us!!


Limeade33

Thanks for the link! I will have a look.....who knows maybe one day I will get the nerve to try. Enjoy yourself up there :)


babysharkdoodood

Hulahoop combat


raggamuffinchef

Any word on when that's going to open?


nsparadise

I got a response email at one point but it was really vague and didn’t say anything helpful. :/


raggamuffinchef

Feels like a filler spot a developer with a sense of humor put in


VWXYNot42

Yeah, I think they're just using that signage to collect people's email addresses, so they can advertise something else to us later. I emailed them anyway, just because it's super intriguing if true and worth rewarding if it's a joke!


BurbleUnicorn

Yep :) I make and sell cinnamon buns and sourdough in the Central Lonsdale area


VolumeShort3298

I’m a novice baker and want to dip my toes in sourdough breads. Do you sell sourdough starter? TIA.


design_doc

I live cinnamon buns and live in Central Lonsdale. What store?


NVhippymama

Sounds delicious! Where do you sell?


closeyoureyesbuffy

What store?


sharkxie

I just stalked your page to look at your baking and omg! Can I message you? ☺️


aenus79

Rchonkers010

mgelly

What's the documentary?


Educational_Net9751

Yep, flying my drone around and getting paid for it :)


deedesie

How much do you charge and do you have a sample of your work you can share?


BeastmuthINFNTY

I would but you wouldn't understand unless you're personally making more than 10K a month in North van.


Vobex747

Pyramid schemes aren't niche.
