Is the suplex the ultimate move? It seems like nothing can match its fight-ending superiority.
>>
Freestyle/folkstyle kind of suplex?
Very unpleasant, and potentially fight ending but not necessarily
Actually Tombstoning a guy? Hard to pull off, but if you do, yeah, he's not getting up

Sure seems to be

ITT: We take a non-extreme sport and change it to make it extreme.

Marathon but you can sabotage your opponents any way you want. Weapons allowed. Basically the Road Rash game but on foot.

Dodgeball with bocce.

Polo but with rodeo horses.

Water polo but the water is slightly acidic so your skin and eyes start to burn after a while and you can only get out (rotating with other team members) once you score.

Any motor sport but without brakes.

Soccer with bowling balls.

Squash but the room is so narrow and you can get hit by the other player's racket.

40+ anons. What martial arts do you train? When did you start? Do you train/lift outside of martial arts? I'm looking to get back into judo/boxing but i'm an old fat piece of shit right now. Any suggestions for training smart as an old guy?

Judo, fencing, escrima. All very casually.

I've done some kind of martial arts since I was a teenager and I've never had to diet or do normal exercise before, but I've been a fattie in a desk job for the past 12 years and it's left my body broken and embarrassing.

I don't have much time or money but I do what I can. Sometimes my back will start hurting so much I have to stop and stretch. I do weightlifting and cardio at the gym to try and keep up with the younger guys. I've never had to do that before. Before I'd just get fit from doing the martial art. As a lowly office worker I need all the exercise I can get.

Since I'm fat I outweigh most everyone so it's not like I'm easy to push around or anything. Experience counts for a lot too. Most guys I train with are young and thin, but that also means inexperienced and lightweight. Still, it's all very discouraging, knowing that I can fight these kids but I can't fight Father Time. But it's still a million times more interesting than just lifting and jogging.

All physical traits are use it or lose it, even if you're young. Mental traits too, I guess. You gotta always be doing something. Stillness is stagnation, movement is lubrication.

I'm trying to go slow. I'm about a week into 5x5 Stronglifts. I'm going to wait a couple of months before I start judo again because I should probably lose some weight before rolling around. I hurt my back doing barbell rolls on stronglifts before, had to take a break from lifting and judo. If I get hurt again, i'm thinking i'll just start doing body weight exercises and muay thai, and try to lose more weight than i'd like. I'm going to start incorporating yoga to help with flexibility and tendons and all that. but yeah right now the plan is to go slow, build muscle and flexibility and lose a little weight.

>>244205
thx anon, i might look it up. i'm trying to not overload myself with info because that's an endless road to go down. the guy on the cover looks at least 60 lol.

>>244343
that's a hell of a work load, good for you man. i'm mainly interested in judo/jujitsu for grappling and muay thai for striking. I wish kung fu worked because it looks cool as fuck. part of me died inside when I was younger and realized kung fu is worthless for defense, but I do recognize it's mental and physical attributes.

>>244482
i love fencing, i took a few classes when i was younger. i wish i had endless time and money to be able to train all the things i want. but you can only walk one path at a time i guess. I'm overweight and out of shape and i'm trying to fix that, but i haven't really had any physical issues at all, other than popping something in my back a while ago while doing barbell rows. i go back and forth between deciding whether or not to stay kind of big/chunky but strong and focus on grappling, or losing more weight to get more limber to prevent injuries.

If you're already dealing with training injuries I might suggest either pirating or buying a digital copy and doing a Ctrl+f search for recommendations around that specific injury (it doesn't have everything but it has some of the common ones). I used my digital copy as a reference before buying a physical copy to read outright. Pic related are some excerpts I was discussing with a friend who was struggling to bench with a recurring shoulder injury.

Very solid suggestion. It sounds like OP used to do judo so he should already know how to drill ukemi. Adding this to his daily routine could do a lot towards injury prevention.

Make skateboarding cozy but get real fucking good
To where you can go to a competition real nervous but ignore the hype and perform better than anyone else because you practiced extensively
If someone bombed a hill in San Francisco and you want to do that, wear gear and PRACTICE SITUATIONS WHERE YOUD GET SPEED WOBBLES OBSESSIVELY
Evel Kinneval could have gotten a lot further if he were good at math
So apply math and physics to your obsession
You can only break and twist your limbs so often before you have to decide to either quit take a break or better yet WEAR GEAR AND STUDY LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT
The hippie dippie retards with no gear are bound to either become paralyzed or addicted to crack

YOURE NOT THE BOSS OF ME NOW

Most places will ask u to use 16 oz gloves for sparring. Everlasts are fine but Windy, Fairtex, Twins, Yokkao, and if ur sugar daddy is paying for gloves, Winning gloves are all better choices. The first 4 I listed are easily found in new/used condition on fbook marketplace or by your friendly semi-retired neighborhood coach at ur local crunch gym who still has a wholesaler acct.

Want to participate in one of the most ultimate extreme sports? Come Skydive.

Either do a tandem for ~S220 (Don't get video you will watch it once or twice and it costs $120+) or go through AFF and jump with your own gear every jump ($~3600 for the first 8 jumps or so) Most jumps are $60-70 after that if renting gear, or ~$30 if you have your own.

Any questions? Ask away I'm an insutructor

>>238407
I would estimate each skydive to be ~20 mins of potentially dangerous activity (with 15 mins of it being the ride up, which is significantly lower risk profile, but not 0).
So a good comparison would be based on the likelihood of injury or death in 1000 jumps (20000mins=333hours of skydiving+parachuting+riding up) vs 333 hours of riding your motorcycle.
It's still the safest extreme sport, but it's unfair to exclaim civilian motorcycle riding to be more accident prone on a per minute of activity basis.
>>
I'm struggling too much with sit-fly (in tunnel)
>>
>>238315
I had my first jump last week (it was exhilarating, would recommend) and I was talking to my tandem master along with another experienced jumper about the AAD on the truck ride to the plane, and they said one dude they knew died because he passed out on a jump despite the AAD opening. That's one that shocked me never having done it before is how fast you come in even with the shoot open, especially on swoops and turns. You land wrong with the shoot open and you're still fucked. So the AAD isn't the best fail safe you would think it is. And from my understanding that's where most skydiving fatalities come from, human error not mechanical error. It doesn't matter how battle tested your gear is, it can't prevent people from being dumbasses doing highly risky maneuvers or freak health accidents like losing consciousness on the jump.

Your gear not working and winding up like a bug on a windshield during a summer night is your fearful primal monkey brain speaking, but in actuality it rarely happens like that.
>>
>>238459
they estimated one year each skydive was like 22 miles driven on a motorcycle on the highway in terms of risk
>>
>>241374
Yeah, we're at like 80-90% of deaths in the last 10 years or so being under a fully inflated properly function canopy that the pilot made a bad mistake with (Swoop, low turn, canopy collision, hitting a building)

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.

Hello everybody . So like a 6 months ago my old "friend" begged me to lent my dh mtb to his friend, and I told it would be a good idea to strengthen our friendship. with some hesitation I lent it to them the next day. Shortly after 2 days they returned everything was fine, and than they begged me to lent them bike again because his friends bike was broken, and we decided to store it at my basement. Than 1,2 days after they took that broken bike out of basement and sold it. And then begged to lent my dh Bike again for 4 days, because "I don't need I'm not riding that much" well yes I was preparing for exams. I said like ok but not for more days, my parents didn't knew that I lent it. Than passed like 2,3 weeks of me literally begging them to return it, also my "old friend" was my classmate so I was questioning him every day, and he replied : it's not my problem you lent bike to him not to me. I can write even more in details what happend but it would be long if anyone interested in. After 3 weeks of me begging them they returned me it, transmission destroyed, and every bearing was with rusty water. As an excuse for what they did, they said that I abandoned my friend when we were 13 years old in the forest, and it was telling his friend who wasn't even at the moment it happend, basically imagine the start of small local forest near city where many people hanging out, and we left him in close to exit area waiting for him like literally a wide trail that goes only in one way, as result he walked out with bike only with some mud stains on shirt. And that was an excuse, ok but then they told that they found buyer for my cycle, but they will be selling it without me without my supervision because they told everybody that it's their cycle. I declined it and then they threatened me that they won't give back my tools that I lent them earlier. At this point I told my parents about it, and I got my tools back, and it's not the end of the story. It is too long.

what lessons did you learn?

Hey /xs/, absolute tourist here, do you guys ever discuss skiing or have a skiing general? I see another thread on cross country, but I'm thinking more alpine or freestyle.

Bit early in October, but I'm looking forward to this season, hoping I'm well enough to go.

i plan to learn how to ski this season. im stoked on it, seems like something ill be able to do into old age. I've snowboard and skate. Hope i can pick skiing up relatively fast. I refuse to take lessons and give vail more money. Just going to watch youtube tutorials lol
>>
>>246540
>I refuse to take lessons and give vail more money.
it's pretty easy to find independent ski areas that offer lessons that aren't owned by Vail / Alterra
if you're in CO Loveland is still family owned and offers lessons
you can probably pick up the basics pretty quickly though, it's not hard if you're moderately athletic. getting rental boots that fit correctly will be the most frustrating probably
>>
>>246540
Even just some basic ski lesson help you a surprising amount. I’m no pro, but I can do black runs comfortably (only really get to ski like one week a year) and every once in a while getting some solid instructions has made my experience so much nicer. Having someone there as you’re going really helps get you better intuition for your turns and where to hold your arms (surprisingly important)
If you’re renting skis this year, I really like the Heads’ KORE skis are really fun intermediate skis. I’m not sure how beginner friendly they are though?
Best of luck this season!

What’s up /xs/bros. I’m Mortis, the new /xs/ divegrass manager.

Our extreme virtual divegrass team will be competing in the upcoming 4cc Autumn Babby Cup. Use this thread to comment your suggestions for players, aesthetics, tactics, any thoughts on the overall team, or be the first /xs/ anon to call the new manager a fag.

Our board is home to a wide variety of extreme sports, so I would love to see a little more representation of sports that haven’t gotten a chance to shine. I’m also looking into getting our team our very first stadium, something that can hopefully be finalized in the future.

This will be my first cup as manager so please support our team this next cup. Let’s show all the other boards that it’s not about the size of our board that matters, it’s about how long it takes to learn a new skate trick without giving up, how many times we get thrown on the mat by our opponent and we still get up, how we go for that steep hill on our bike without bailing. Whatever extreme sport you practice, it’s about the extreme passion you have.

And remember, you don’t have to be a musician to be an Earth Rocker.

Well now were dead on match two. How about next time you don't fucking throw a match to /y/ by trying to match their retardation.

Well we lost 5-2 today. Sorry for another loss /xs/bros. This was my 2nd match managing but I'm quickly learning how to get better. On Sunday we play /vr/. It might be our last game of this cup but we're gonna give it our all to at least get this win.

So we lost today's game 0-4. That's the final game of this cup for us. I'm not here to make excuses. I apologize for the performance we had this cup. I promise there will be huge changes coming when the Spring cup comes around. Changes such as roster changes, tactical changes, a new stadium that I will do my best to get, etc. Thank you to everyone that supported this team during this cup. We will be back, Earth Rockers never die.

This will be the first change. The only reason he played in this cup is because this was my first cup managing and I wanted to see if he still had it, but no, this nigga is GONE.
