>>247616Wear a coat.
>>247616Skate really hard so your body produces more heat.
Do you skate at night? If yes, what equipment do you use? If no, why?
Anyone from the UK? Is it allowed to use inline skates on the road? Pavement? Cycle paths?
>>247616>>247835I usually tried to avoid skating under 10C, 5 is kinda pushing itJust long jeans jnsteatof shorts, will try some thermo leggings and shorts maybe, and I wear a thicker winter biking jacket with the pockets at the back (for water etc) and another layer under like a t-shirt or so. I mainly do urban speed runs with little to no tricksFrom October or so onward I basically only use the wet setup with MPC storm surge wheels which are basically magic, even on wet roads it grips like it was dryWet leaves will still get you no matter what and are the real problem I don't skate so much at night aka after 16:00 (that's 4pm for freedom land) this time of the year but otherwise I wear a helmet with a cheap headlight tiewrapped to it, more so others can see me properly, and I have another red one in a semi-transparent back pocket, there's lots of options in that regardYou can also swap one of your wheels with one of those LED wheels on each foot, check that they're not overly slow due to the friction that makes the LED work

First episode is out.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCsR-zxwN1Y>What is the Ultimate Self-Defense Championship?A bit over a year ago, former Aikidoka YouTuber Rokas Leo set up a tournament with a self-defense "academy" to have himself and five other martial arts YouTubers compete to see who is best at self-defense. It was a hilarious shitshow that nearly crippled one of the contestants, Ramsey Dewey who would later get into an internet spat with the guy behind the academy (Jeff Phillips) and described the entire event as "piss poor" due to poor management, an incoherent and arbitrary scoring system, running on a very limited schedule, and timing events terribly (like having a zombie apocalypse-themed event that didn't influence score in the middle of the entire thing instead of at the end or something) and doing comically dangerous shit like making people fight on a narrow bridge a good 30ft above the ground.Somehow, he kickstarted a second one, which features even less martial arts YouTubers.
>>248037I liked the one in the first episode where it was an actually choreographed sequence showing his stupid shit "works" within his weird little bubble, but in the later episodes it doesn't really work. The other alternative is they should've made it so each segment just has a random Master Ken version of the challenge interspersed instead of all piled at the end.>Going through each baby segment>Gets to Master Ken>He's accosted for his baby>"I don't even know this kid, you can have him.">Throws the baby at the mugger then kicks him in the dick anyway because "I've had enough babies with enough women to know no good man actually WANTS to have a baby"

I see that Shane had to drop out due to an injury, and his score of 16 was finalized. At the rate Gabriel Varga is going, it's likely that Shane won't end up in last place even if he misses the next 4 challenges. Also the judges are super biased; Natan does not deserve the highest score after failing the first couple of challenges. They just wanted him up there because he's one of the most popular dudes in the competition.
I have to say, nightclub episode was the worst one yet by FAR, completely supid and contrived.And yet it was the one they were hyping up all season so far. I sincerely hope that that was nowhere near the best we got.
>>248908>it was the one they were hyping up all season so far.It had potential, but the scenario where the wife sprints away from the contestants to get drugged while everyone in the club bodyblocks the contestant was ridiculous. Also, despite failing the first two challenges, Natan was given the highest score, which was really biased by the judges; he definitely did not perform better than Adrian or Seth.
let me guess... you "need" more?

Are SRAM brakes being shit a meme or actually shit brakes?
>>249258basically anything pre-mineral oil SRAM is fucking dogshit. I still don't like the progressive (high "modulation") feel of regular mavens but maven base with a linear lever are my favorite brakes currently. Even the DB8s which you can get for like $50 are quite good, easily better than codes

HE PACKIN
I was recently diagnosed with a scaphoid nonunion and need to have surgery soon to fix it. It’s going to put me in a cast and out of commission for several months. I’m currently weighing the options of doing the surgery now and ruin my upcoming vacation and part of my summer, or later and ruin my whole summer.Either way, I won’t be doing much for a very long time. How do you stay sane while you’re healing from injuries?
>>225840Did you stay sane, Anon, or did you lose it?
>>225840Feet are here for a reason, get yourself a second keyboard for them
>>225840>How do you stay sane while you’re healing from injuries?After you have been injured enough times you know the routine. See pic - guess what I had to get? Surgery was fine, but during the recovery I had something called vasovagal or some shit like that and my heart rate dropped, dropped some more, then I flat lined for 30 seconds and saw the light. Dr. says 6mos before I go back to motocross riding. You either live life and enjoy the aches and pains later, or do nothing and waste your life.
You just need to do what you can. when I broke my collarbone I just did body weight squats and toe raises and used hand grippers in both hands for blood flow and did some very light lifting with the other arm. I could have probably used a treadmill but did a stationary bike instead to minimize movement. I didn’t get surgery for my collarbone and I have problems with it but a year and a half later it’s stronger than it was before I broke it so it’s manageable.when I fet my collarbone healed enough to lift I started with a. One pound water bottle and very slow reps, and just slowly went from there
>>225844O'Hare had some good roles on L&OIt gets a bit jarring on rewatches when he's constantly showing up as different characters though
Is anybody here into breaking or other similar dance styles? What's your training routine like?
>>241563I'm not christian i pray to myself :3c
>>241565I've never thought about it so clearly, it sounds a bit defeatist but i guess in my situation and for you you'd be right. Strange that you havent found any dancebuddy yet because in my 3 years of posery i've had like 2 who i still keep in touch with, one i met at dancing classes and the other on a famous dancing spot, maybe you should check those out your city?
>>242007Nah, it's not strange at all. First of all most of the "dance classes" I could find here are aimed at literal children and teenagers. And even if they weren't, I just consider this whole dance class thing very faggy and fake. I have a very specific and autistic vision of what dancing should be (at least for breaking in particular). It's the type of shit you should be training in some garage alone or with some sort of makeshift crew (while occasionally yelling at eachother), up until like 2am and then maybe cracking a few beers open. Should feel a bit grimy and rough around the edges, a bit sporadic. That's what makes the whole process feel authentic and unfiltered. Paying some guy to "teach" me dance moves through his carefully curated lessons over the course of a few weeks, surrounded by other clumsy chumps feels so sanitized and corporatized. There's no charm to it. As for "dance spots", there are none. Not in my city at least. I live in the balkans, there just isn't a culture for this sort of thing here. I'm pretty much an outlier in terms of my obsession with this dancing shit. I'm sure there are at least a few others ( in this country) who have a passion for this sort of thing, but they most likely keep it to themselves, just like i'm doing lol. So there's not chance of intersecting whatsoever. Again, not exactly bothered by this fact, since i'm not actively seeking out people in the first place. But hypothetically, it would be an interesting experience to practice with someone like that.
Anyone else watching this?
>>247619huh idk about this event but the one redbull event that really made me wish i could dance well was the redbull dance your style, especially that one stance compilations. so much entertainment and vibes
