>have a skateboard as a kid
>don't mind skateboarding
>get rid of it as an adult
>realize skateboarders are awful and skateboarding is bad
Have I become a caricature of the out of touch adult? It seems to me just like how golf attracts sociopathic fat rich people, skateboarding attracts sociopathic skinny poor people. I've been attacked by skateboarders as an adult for just minding my own business, they used to see me as one of them, now that I have a job and own my home they see me as an enemy and I see them as an enemy. Instinctively! It's fucking weird I feel like I'm living in a cartoon. Do other people go through this?
>>
>>253194
Once you hit 30 you'll realise that the other people engaging in a hobby/sport do not define it. Just like you don't have to be a beer swilling, soon to be heart attack having, greasy as fuck face having creature to play darts. You can engage with skating however you like and don't need to be a drugged up street urchin wannabe

What I'm trying to say is: Get oooooover yourself faaaaaaaggot

>What is HEMA?
HEMA stands for Historical European Martial Arts, sometimes also called Historical Fencing.
It's reconstructing how to fight with swords, daggers, polearms, and other weapons based on old European fighting treatises

I have a regenyei historical and a malleus.
I can't stand the regenyei. Everyone loves it when they grab it for the first time but it's basically a bastard arming sword with a complex guard and a knuckle bow and I'm tempted to cut off the knucklebow and just use it for 1.33

>>253844
I'd get a new rapier or longsword, but sidesword.
It depends what you want to learn.

if you want to compete in SnB a sidesword will get you further than an arming sword.

They also slap and it was a form developed by women, so the theory checks out.

TKD is fairly gay however. You ever watch it at the olympics? Just tiny thin gooks flaling pant legs at each other for contact with 0 power. Its like the flag football of martial arts.
>>
>>252210
I can find things to respect about shit martial arts, some redeeming quality that makes them worthwhile

For TKD I am impressed by the flexibility and balance they cultivate. Even if it's not good for fighting the up side of physical fitness is always a good quality

How risky is it to learn to box with vision problems? Is it possible to learn real boxing, meaning with sparring, if you have myopia or moderate astigmatism? I can't stand feeling so insecure about my body and my lack of willpower
>>
>>250634
I'm short sighted and i do kickboxing, it's not a problem, the distance where you throw punches is close enough, yeah you might be at a small disadvantage but it's not like you're aiming for world championship. If you're really worried do grappling instead.
>>
>>250634
my vision kinda sucks, the honest answer is that it depends. You're not going to need super hawk vision for anything, you're not looking for them to clench their first in a magic death punch or nothing. If you can see their body and the general twist of their hands, that's gonna be sufficient.

You can adapt with training.

Naoya Inoue sustained a cut during a boxing match against Donaire, which impeded his vision. He compensated by gluing his right hand over his compromised eye, which he learned from watching Donaire himself when it happened to him in a previous fight. webm related


Prior to getting eye surgery, former interim UFC champion Justin Gaethje was almost legally blind.

>20/60 in one eye and 20/200 in another eye
>far sighted in one eye and nearsighted in another eye

His fighting style at the time reflected this. He used a forward-pressure style with a high guard and relied on taking hits on his forearms and wrestling with his hands to know whether they were close enough to hit.
