How do we feel about adults using scooters?
Yes, I'm insecure about it because I'm considering getting one to get to places faster and overall do a little exercise but I don't want to look like a twat.

everyone hating on a scooter would probably crack there shit trying to do a real trick like a blunt on a rail. Fuck these faggots do what you wanna do. Scootering is based and fun as hell. A lot of scooter street parts have more swag and less gay song choices too because they realize they actually have to have extra swag to make scootering look cool so there is more effort put into not looking like a queer corporate sell out poser.
>>
>>238022
i had the opportunity once to ride one for free in public. was fun, they go pretty fast but I'd never personally own one. If you like it, go for it. But yea, expect people to talk shit or give you looks. Rarely, but expect it nonetheless.

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.

Interesting choice. Can't say I'm experienced with disco so I don't have any great examples on me right now. But you could definitely search for like, 70s dance footage or something like "disco funk coreography / dance moves" and find some relevant stuff. I found this while searching right now and it looks pretty good for starters, imo.
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/idA4JNP5CgM

Try to get a feeling of these guys' moves. Then try to reproduce them. And then go on from there and improvise a little. And then when you need more visual reference, watch more video.

I'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?
>>
>>242007
Nah, 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.

Any of you fags go caving?

I can't count the amount of times I see people selling basically brand new boots because they bought them online and realised they were too big/didn't match the profile of their foot.
You can buy everything else online but go support your local and buy boots in store
Ask to do a shell check or do it yourself while you're there
>Pull the liner out of the shell
>Stick your foot inside the shell and slide up until you can just feel the front
>Look at the space in between the back of your heel and the shell
>You want somewhere between a centimetre to an inch of space back there

Oh and aftermarket insoles made so much difference to the comfort and overall riding that I feel stupid for not getting them earlier so definitely recommend picking up a pair if you can.

This is pretty clear at this point. Yes there has been studies that have shown the brain can recover from the effects of "hard sparring" over the next 24 hours, however, we also know that brain damage is cumulative. Just because your brain can recover once, doesn't mean it will recover always. Permanent impairment from this shit is a matter of (frequency×intensity)÷skill. It's ironic many people support hard sparring for the "getting hit" conditioning, because you should be learning avoidance more than anything.
>avoiding>parry>block>getting hit
If sparring is conditioning you for getting hit, you're sparring wrong.

>>225519
Combat sports are generally bad for your health. Even BJJ will ruin your ears and most likely give you some kind of long-term knee issue. Only do it if you love it. Otherwise stick to weightlifting and running.
>>

Did you stop training in boxing completely after that?
I’m kinda looking to do the same thing with boxing and wrestling and probably only doing a small number of amateur bouts in boxing to prove it to myself that I can do it.
>>
>>241104
Yeah I stopped training, unless you count hitting the bag once in a while "still training"

To be honest I miss it and I felt really confident and happy with life when I was training with the intention to fight, which is why I am looking to get back into another martial art now.
I wish I went into another art after like a year instead of wasting years of my life not training anything
>>
>>225417
you have to accept there's some degree of getting hit/damage, its a extreme sport

that being said it shoulden't be "excessive or unessicary"
are they going so hard that you are/will feel dizzy or rattled regularly? then its probably not a good gym.

He was forced out by the growing anti-immigration party (sanseito) and because of his party's loss of seats to them in. Ishiba embarrassed himself, his party and his country when he fell stepping off the dohyo back in January after handing the cup to Horseshitryu. Hopefully the JSA will learn a lesson from this and kick all the mongs out of sumo. International types can go wrestle for Hakuho in his international league.

he can execute tricks at low speed and thinks that he has the right to judge someone going 20mph at a ledge and having to twist their body or touch their hand to the ground (which is rad btw) when they land.

Why are "turkish oil wrestling" and Kushti (indian folk wrestling) so much less known\popular, than sumo, greco-roman, etc? Is it because they themselves imposed heavy non- outsider restrictions upon those sports?
For example in the br*tish empire era, many scholars were fascinated by yoga, but Kushti didn't make much of an impact...likewise the balkans, once ottoman clay, don't have the folk style of turkey.
