Roller skate thread.Mostly Inline & Quads, Hockey & Derby welcome, Soaps & Heelies too if they're chill. Ice skates? Who knows.Discuss rollerskating tricks, gear, hobbies, complaining about the cost of new wheels and anything else relating to rolling around and it's culture. Cool roller skating /mu/sic is welcome, but talk about other shit too, don't just post music links with nothin else.

>>258506no that was my first /rsg/ post ever, I had no idea inline skating and skiing were considered extreme until I explored this board last week>it's just a flesh wound!
>>258698not really an alternative at the moment, and there probably won't be. rollerblade used to make a liner with a walkable sole, but they were a gimmick that only came with two skates and never became an aftermarket thing iirc
Can anyone explain how different frames feel and make you skate different? Like I get rocker vs anti-rocker vs flat. I have anti-rocker aggressive skates that feel like skating on bricks compared to my rockered stock FR skates. But for example, how in fuck does Wizard for example differ from typical rocker? How does it feel compared to a typical rockered stake or for example the Kizer Element 90 etc. Do different rockered frames really feel that different?What the fuck do Intuition liners also do? People swear by them, but nobody has explained how they are actually so superior to stock liners. What feels different about them compared to say a stock FR USD or Roces liner?
>>260023>rockered vs wizardstandard rockering/slalom rocker is done to allow quick pivoting, typically a 2mm height difference between outer wheels and inner wheels. wizard/endless/etc are a "natural" rocker, meaning they have a 1mm difference between outer and inner wheels. this is done to mimic the rockering that develops organically as you wear wheels in and rotate them. the 5 wheel rockered frames are either "V rocker," a rocker that has the middle wheel lowest and the rest of the wheels raise less drastically from the middle, or "progressive" rocker, focusing on a gentle rocker where three wheels will tough the ground at all times depending on how you distribute your weight. the wizard style rockers on 4 and 5 wheels frames are designed to enhance fluid/more controlled movements and pivots as opposed to choppier movement IE hockey players and slalom skaters.>intuition linersreally thin liners made out of skiboot liner foam. heat moldable, inhibits bacterial growth, you can control how stiff they are with lacing/shims/inserts to improve responsiveness, and they allow you to downsize into more size appropriate shells (most boot measurements are not super precise due to mass production/sizing being based more around fitting a liner into the shell than around the foot size/shape). they also last a really long time, I've been skating them since the V1 liner, and each pair has lasted 4 years minimum (got one pair that's 6 years old and still has plenty of life left)

why don't more people skate with bigger wheels? I'm talking 60mm and above.it feels so much better to skate when you're not trying to balance precariously on little tiny baby wheels, where even a speck of dust will send you flying.
>>247108>to the kids these daystrends on this have swung back and forth a couple times. the desirable wheel diameter when i was a kid in the 90s was around 40mm. just completely ridiculous for anything other than pristine smooth skateparks.
>>250852>pristine smooth skateparkswhich did not exist in the BPLW era. they were riding bearing condoms on parking lot asphalt and bricks.
>>250599What do you mean, rolling around campus while holding hands with your boyfriend while wearing matching knee pads is extreme as hell!
>>247103I have 52mm wheels from some board I got from a local skateshop that was premade. Do I upgrade to try and learn better at different places or nah? I should also ask how do I balance better?

Here we discuss HMB, Buhurt, Harnisfechten, SCA Heavy, Armored MMA, and other categories of historically inspired armored sport fighting. We are a very welcoming community and there’s never enough of us, newcomers need not be shy.Share your experiences, discuss arms and armor, appreciate the athletes and smiths, and most of all HAVE FUN!
Just found out about armored mma on youtube. Looks extremely based. Might go to one of their events soon.
Buhurt is so cool but the community around it especially in the US is way too preachy and retarded. basically if you're not a bleeding heart lib most teams won't even talk to you
>>256658>basically if you're not a bleeding heart lib most teams won't even talk to youReally? That's better than I thought, I've always thought it was a way for chuds to have pseudo-MMA fights without getting wrecked by any brown guy. Would be funny to see one of them sporting "Im with Her" stickers on their armor lmao.
how much you reckon it costs to get into jousting?
hello frens, i'm looking for some wooden weapon schematics to make them out of wood, need them for a buhurt club, thanks in advance
hi /xs/ this is my cat rupert, hes a very adventurous cat and i was thinking about going skydiving with him. ive been skydiving before and i liked it, does anyone have any experience skydiving with a cat, or any pet?
Rumor has it if a cat has enough time to right itself and spread out their terminal velocity is lower than what it takes to injur them so beyondNo gear required, just drop him and he'll be fine
>>251648OP is this you
>>251648dude another rupert get, rare added to my collection
>>246088i found rupert in s4s too
>>259888Let's see?
I just want the assurance that I can defend myself should it come to that INB4 get a gun, I live in Canada so I can't. I'm thinking about joining an MMA gym to do all of it but I don't think I would be able to put in the requisite time for both grappling and striking training while still lifting and doing cardio. If it is possible please tell me because I plan on going to the fighting classes 3-4 times a week, also please give me info on how much to spar including hard sparring, I want to get decent as fast as possible
>>251818>I just feel like your idea of confident is acting like an assholethat is a textbook exemple of projection. in none of op's posts was anything mentioned that comes even remotely close to sounding like he wants to bully someone. learning to defend yourself is as important a skill as learning how to cook for yourself. you need it to survive.
>>251752Do one teach one fu
>>255827>constructive thing>guy with no martial arts experience: "I'm going to invent my own martial with blackjack and hookers!"
>>251752probaby kickboxing + judoKickboxing so you learn the merits of not dodging (because many people have been felled for over-dodging into a shin or a fistand judo beccause you need to learn how to fall and not break somethingBasically imo the best thing you can learn about in martial arts is how to get hit and how to not die from a fall, which are frankly great skills with many benefits that are easy to learn
>>251811Go do muay thai. It's gonna teach you take/give punches, and there's clinch work that's like half-assed wrestling/judo so you'll learn to tussle. You'll die to an actual boxer/wrestler punching/grappling wise but you will at least know what to do more or less.Sanda also works but impossible to find.
new to boxing and I keep on walking into punches during exercises, how does one dodge and slip? do south paws have to do it differently?
I disagree with the hookers here. Their jab is much faster than your hook is, you'll have to find/make an opening to get an opening for it, and the angle feels wrong for it to me too.
>>253671>>253686>>253392but I am a southpaw
>>253381>how does one dodge and slip? Practice on a slip rope, shadowboxing, double end bag. If you got a friend, have them work mitts for you and let them mix in straights and jabs so you can practice defense. >>253712This is the reason I dislike being a lefty.

Is this a legit technique I've never seen it before https://youtube.com/shorts/lA3PQi3b7ug?is=XvQZgN0by5HmN8sp
>>260293I'm assuming you mean the second throw and not the foot sweep? I think it's pretty common, I see it a couple of times most comps I go to. A few guys and girls do it in my gym regularly, but our coach uses a lot of kata guruma so they do too. Usually see it later in a match after attempting a few drop seoi or kata guruma so the opponent is used to bracing backwards, where this just works.
>>260293That's kouchi makikomi, it's pretty common

For anyone who has done a martial artIs it normal to have mixed emotions about it?None of the stuff I've tried (Boxing, Judo, Wrestling, BJJ)Has made me instantly think "omg I love this. This is it. I'm doing this for life"It's usually a combination of "well that was really difficult and tiring, is this worth it, this is going to be difficult but I'll be a better person mentally and physically, I guess.. just stick with it?"Or were you instantly hooked
>>253840How did you avoid the crippling injuries?
The only part I really enjoy is me grasping a certain concept and executing it, seeing my overall progress, however the training itself is just boring repetition most of the time, and that's all there's to it for me.
>>244716I do for health reasons. For now. Maybe it will be more fun as I get better. Still a NOGI newb. Hardest part is of course just getting ot out of the door. When you get there, change. 1,5 hour and forget. Come home tired as shit knowing it's good for the body and mind.
>>253846What do you mean? I just don't think they happen that often. I didn't go out of my way to avoid it. I got ringworm a couple times and that was the worst of it. Sometimes things ache and hurt. But I just stretch and train. I didn't even ever choose my partners wisely, just whoever wanted to rumble in any school in any country. I don't think there's very many people throwing kani basami or really in a rush to yank your arm
