| I had to pause and think about the 'spiderwebs' sensation, and that is a good description, not so much the sticky part, but the elastic feel, like you are breaking through them. I also have experienced a shut down moment or two, or as i usually call it , a 'glitch' when there is a delay in motor ski... |
