God damn flograppling took the streams down. Anybody know where I can watch them? I was almost done on the first day
>>241669That'll be $150+ taxYou're not missing anything, day 2 started strong but turned into a stall fest by the end againAnd there may have been some rigging that took place We need to see the contracts
>>241669wtf already?
>>241687Unfortunately. Well it was free like Craig promised, too bad I wasn't able to watch 14 hours of video in two days...

>>235527Question is still on the menu. Let me change the question, is bearpaw recommendable?
>>237917very unlikely to get a constructive reply here and are literally better off asking reddit.I wish i was jokingthe last thread was up for about a whole year before a new one was made
I got a turkish Grozer used for cheap, 2005 make. Can any of you tell me what the core wood is? I know the belly is fiberglass and the back is epoxy with the middle having a glass paper reinforcement, but what kind of wood does this look like to you? I'm thinking beech maybe? Birch?
>>243630It's is a basic Grozer especially an older one then I would glass fiberglass belly, black locust core and bamboo backing covered with some glue or laminate.
>>212688Why is this in /xs/ and not /sp/?
While following video guides and doing bag work and drills? There is no boxing gym or any martial art gym near me.
>>214001Nah, you will definitely develop bad habits that will be hard to get rid of later.
>>214001There is a youtube channel called expert boxing. You can learn the techniques but not fighting.
>>214001If you're not a broke loser, you can at the very least find someone who can give you lessons here and there at home, and record those sessions, and do that shit religiously. Or find people to spar/train w locally.
>>214001You can get fit and learn the basics, but you need sparring an actual human bean to actually understand what you are doing, and learn defense.
>>245355Hell, OP even if you're are a broke loser, borderline homeless you probably can find someone to train you. In many countries there are state facilities for it.

>>245513Did he die?
Where do I aim for on the head/face in sparring?Is there an etiquette for it? I figured in boxing it was top of the forehead if you're being "nice"
>>245606I was told to punch for the forehead
Started training my hands referencing Wolff's law, currently using a single piece of cardboard covering cinder blocks. Averaging about 200 strikes (chain, straight, body punches) a day. I also use a grip resistance palm clench about the same amount of reps. Any other ideas how to strengthen the knuckles and joints? Curious about adding more calcium rich foods into my diet as well.
>>244584try press-ups where you point the fingers towards each other in the middle, and flip the hands over between each rep.palms on the floor, middle finger tips not too far apart, lower your chest to your hands, then press up and use the momentum to lift your hands off the floor. flip the hands over so you land on the backs of your hands instead, and repeat, alternating. makes your wrists sturdy.i'm not that gym-strong but my gym bro friends mire this cause they can't do it. they also mire being able to pull up on a doorframe. they can do way more pullups than i can on a bar, but can't do one when they need to grip with just the fingertips. try that too.
What is the best martial art if you are normal sized (5'11/6 foot) but physically weak (110 pounds)? Those are my stats.Eskrima sounds nice but you can't carry sticks or knives around with you like an fighting game character.
>>239977Anything point based like Taekwondo, or technical grappling like Judo and BJJ
>>239977Krav Maga
>>239977>t. 110 5’7 manletIf you’re 110 at 6 feet, you are extremely underweight and undermuscular for your size. Both of these put you at serious injury risk, I wouldn’t do a combat sport till you get that handled and get to a normal BMI. Even as a shortie who doesn’t need much more massI found bjj and wrestling extremely hard on my shoulder and knee joints, and a major cause of this was fat and muscle are the padding protecting both once someone with wrestler forehead wants to give either a 180 degree rotation.You can ignore this advice, but if you do, go buy your leg sleeves now, because you’re gonna be wearing them for a half year within 3 months.
>>239977Wrestling
>>239977If you're thinking of carry weapons and you obly weigh 110lbs dont be suprised when my 5'7 186lbs ass puts you in hospital and get charged with causing GBH... maybe actually eat sime fucking food and justclearn to fight if you want to fight. I cant understand people like you and i thi k you'd have a vetter prospective after 16 years of kickboxing gyms and 6 of BJJ.. you're going to pull a stick out on the wrong person one day and thats worse than just shoving them because they're going to think you're trying to kill someone so they're going to over react and go overboard on your ass and you're going to be holding the shitty end of that stick my boy..
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.

>>2446731. Put on your skates and go skate more often2. Have fun3. Skate more
>>244344it's $100 fpr ten wheels, the listing is just written in a weird way. by 5x80 for example, it's still a ten pack of wheels for that price, i think they're just trying to clarify the type of frame they'll be used for. All their wheels aside from thw big ones (100mm and up) are around $40-48 for 4, $80-90 for 8, so the $100 fpr ten makes a lot more sense. the listing even clarifies that it's ten wheels in the description. endless 100% has the best value for USA poured wheels.
Had my first real session last evening. It was way harder than when I was a kid. I should have worked on stops before speed. Had a couple big drops, feel like I caught an ass whooping. Target fixated into a curb when I was flying and went tumbling into the grass. Dropped onto my hip trying to slow down on the way back to my car. It's been a long time since I've had skinned knees. I am middle aged.
>>244112anon, those boots are following closely behind that broken strap. thats a 20+ year old brittle plastic shell thats one good flex away from snapping in half mid stride. do yourself a favor and get something from the past decade at least. check whats on sale or go on blade trade outpost on facebook if youre on a tight budget, im sure someone can hook you up with some decent boots for cheap. if you need brand/model recs, rollerblade, powerslide, fr, seba, even them make great skates for rec skating. just avoid softboots (soft around the lacing and top of foot, usually made of some fabric, rollerblade zetrablade for example), look for a solid, all plastic boot (hardboot, fr1 for example)
>>244673Watch the movie Brink everyday.
What's your excuse for not skating?
>>240085probably why skating is most popular amongst teens with no responsibilities
>>237764I fell and hurt myself, I'm waiting to recover a bit more and get a new helmet before I go back out
>>237764If I want to cruise around in peace >Bicycle If you want to make some cool videos with your friends and have no obligation >Rewind 15+ years and be a teenager againAlso>Have supportive friends, parents and an environment you feel good skating in>Local park full of druggies and chavs robbing peopleHobbies are about opportunity more than anything That top skater of all time.the autistic one, he skated in his parents barn in full protective gear. That's how he got good
>>237764I'm trying to learn BMX
>>240085I'd bring my skateboard to work and was known as the guy who'd get shit from building to building real fuckin fast, when I did smash my toe and called off for a few days they were cool about it

Things DID get really crazy! Crazy painful. That's what you get for being named after a failed painter.
Are there any forests on this earth where a human can climb and swing from trees like a monkey?
>>240641he's a retarded spaniard
>>239789I used to do that when I was little, we swang from Eucaliptus trees hair-like branches down a steep rope. Shit was crazy, but they'd probably snap if you weigh more than 40kgs. We also used to climb a very tall tree (four story building in height) which was a pine tree I guess but not one of those straight-withouth-branchesinb4>eurofag
>>239789>Are there any forests on this earth where a human can climb and swing from trees like a monkey?Your mom's bush.
>>241042I would use branches
>>239789It's not about the forest, it's about the human anatomy.
I've Been Playing For 25 Years But I Stopped Enjoying It 15 Years Ago Edition.Old thread: >>142716We're coming back any day now, boys.
>>220387does anyone have a line on 90s paintball anodizing jobs? they were 90s wacky and wild and i want to get my AR to look like a custom job from 97.
>>243653stock class and pump on the airball field is infinitely more fun than using semi and electros. i put on pump airball days with 8-14 guys showing up typically. we do saturdays since sundays is more popular with the speedball guys. im always able to convince the 3-4 dudes with electros who DO show up to give pump a try. they always love it, and everyone appreciates the faster paced, short games. with pumps, you are able to pull off way crazier moves and no one is staying put and hiding behind bps. even when the pace and action are ramped up, you will NeVER catch a pump guy cheating/wiping.
>>245310PK selective did those. And they do/did AR parts too. ARC annodizing is one of their old guys iirc.
>>245414thats my shit right there.
>>245512yea that era of paintball was the peak. mags and cockers, actual athleticism and big paint. i had a shit ton of folks outraged when i suggested a "Classic Mech League" with no space mechs allowed. -revvys only-single trigger -mags and cockers only-no r/t, no hair trigger, limit lbs/trigger pullthe emek and mech trigger kit electro guys were very butthurt that i would come up with a mech game they weren't allowed to hide behind bps with. "you should allow emeks at least" "these rulesmake no sense, theres no difference between modern mechs and the older stuff" "no one will show up to a game like that, its unsponsorable" definitely gave me more incentive to try and actually put something together.
let me guess... you "need" more?
>>245293what a waste of a thread
