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.
The deadly strike against the carotid.
>>241972If you get a black belt does that make you the Kung Fuhrer
>>241975It will drop you if you have never had it happen before. It's not somewhere you expect to get hit. It would be like if somebody hooks your armpit. You are not tensed there ready to receive a blow.

>>241980The idea back then i think, at least on the allied side. Was to teach some basic and easy to learn strikes that would quickly disable your opponent. William E. Fairbairn developed his own fighting style called "Defendu" or "gutter fighting" based of his experience in Shanghai. He taught this to OSS operatives.
>>241980most of this was theoretical. u can take a much harder object and do permanent damage but a edge of hand strike to the nose will never be fatal unless you shoot them in the head afterwards.
i've been doing boxing for some years but recently got a shoulder injury that will take many months to recover. Unfortunately i cannot do sparring and other heavy training and can only do light exercises and practice combinations that are not too taxing on the shoulders. What types of training can i do to keep up in the meantime so i do not lose progress or at least have something where i can improve?. I was thinking on focusing on footwork, coordination drills and light shadowboxing for technique but i can't seem to incorporate them well enough.
What do you mean that you can't incorporate them well enough?I'll probably get hate for this but Tai Chi might be a really good option. It's basically footwork, coordination, and shadowboxing but the whole point is to develop relaxed strength; coordination is a huge part of that. As long as you find a good teacher who isn't super woo woo I think it will be really good.But that also depends on the nature of your injury...
>>235806Basically i dislocated my shoulder many years ago during weight training. After that it was extremely sensible to overhand movement(sports like swimming, volleyball, etc are a no go) and would dislocate stremely easily. Iwas told just recently that it should not be strained since it could do long term damageto the shoulder. What i do in the meantime are foodwork drills, coordination and light technique with partners, but i can feel my stamina and strenght slowly declining over time.

>>232082take advice from ur PT on what ROM shit u can do as u recover. beyond that, image training, footwork, cardio, build the fuck out of your free arm's arsenal.
I used to do boxing in high school (3 years). I'm now 36. Thinking of starting karate. Which type is good?Should I do shotakon karate? Or I have an ashihabara karate school right next to my house, it seems the best for me.(I already did TKD (Taekwondo not Total Kike Death) and Muay Thai and I didn't like it much but ashihabara karate seems cool and more useful from videos)Before I start, I wanted to get a bit more /fit/, so I lost a lot of weight, got down to 77 kg from 88, I'm 187 cm. Still no visible abs but I think I should be good to go
>>237608honestly at this age look into muay thai, bjj, or MMAthe target demographic is more skewed towards adults and you get into the action faster
>>237608couldn't that fetish OF harlot at least get an ACTUAL gi and not a bath towel?
>>237608>shotaconFucking little boys don't make you strong. Joke aside do kyokyushin or something that looks like kyokyushin.
>>237608>shotakon karatewhere is the lolikon judo school?
>>237608the focus on forms n weird shit for belt rank progression will be not too different from the tkd bs u had to do. not sure why u want to do that if u already box and theoretically understand how to train to fight and be fit. go find a kickboxing/muay thay school that has a big emphasis on competition.

>>243888I don't know anything about sumo, but was it necessary to have 4 of these threads?
>>247230Not at all.Closer to 10 threads is more necessary.
What's the lowest bar to entry combat sport I can hop in and spar as a complete beginner? I want to have a taste for it without having to go through months of work.
>>236408Lmao. These guys are actually trained and will btfo most people who "train"
>>226966Unironically sumo.
>>227258>A competent coach would probably strongly discourage thatThere isnt a competent coach that doesnt encourage hands on experience. As long as youre being safe every martial art should allow sparring on the first lesson.
BJJ let's you spar on day 1.
>>226966If you don't seem to squirrely, most places will let you or encourage you to spar and roll asap, as long as u are wearing whatever gear they require (groin cup, mouthguard, shin guards, wraps, 16 oz gloves, etc)

>>244036If they haven't managed to take out all the slack, you can twist to the side and roll out of it (ideally, grab their left ankle with your left hand and pull till you "spin" enough to take the pressure off.)You're still going to land in a trash position, but it's at least an attempt at survival.

A place to discuss zorbing and zorbing accessories. A misunderstood but globular extreme sport. Limp Bizkit once wrote a song about this
>>210651he died btw
>first time on /xs/>it's all martial arts>it's just martial arts>and zorbing>every post is zorb punswhat the fuck is going on here
>>244441Zorb.
https://youtu.be/mI7vz9Bd664?si=QrhRh2A0uJDivVOpIf jackie chan can zorb so can you.
Painting tallies on the side of my zorb like a ww1 fighter pilot each time I knock over a jogger at my local park while zorbing.
I have shekels to burn and have no other hobbytell me why I shouldn't do paramotoring
iv done both, got into paragliding to get good skills for paramotoring, with paramotoring i got annoyed with the amount messing you have with gear, your engine needs servicing all the time, i bought my one new and the throttle stuck on one of my take offs about 4 weeks in, so killed the engine landed and from that day it just seemed endless money pit with seals goin, bolts coming loose... this was new after all a touch of lock tight costs nothing. As for the paragliding thats epic, when you catch your first thermal you will be hooked, flying with birds never gets old and the view with out the ridiculous noise is always sweet
In the video he was flying at full speed trim out, altitude is your friend when flying, if something goes wrong low you won't have time for any input apart from shitting yourself., so looks like his right side had a small tuck, but at full bar the wing wouldn't recover, you can get some really good en-a wings and low en-b wings (they will recover themselves if you just go hands up and power off) but this guy was fill throttle.
>>235271>>235287Yeah playing with your phone that low is just stupid, IF he had his hands on the controls he MAY have saved it.

European riders are arguably the more skilled of the two, riding on gnarlier tracks and outdoors only. Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-BleZkNdEU&t=1527sYet, European pros themselves still watch AMA more growing up. We do nothing to make it more presentable. The tracks are diarrhea with some plastic poles to mark where to go.Why are we like this?
>European riders are arguably the more skilled of the twoNo. Your defending champion Jorge Prado came to the US and is getting 5-8.>European pros themselves still watch AMA more growing upBecause euroop is culturally irrelevant.>We do nothing to make it more presentableI agree most MXGP tracks are ugly and forgettable.>Why are we like this?Genetics.
>>236732>the more skilled of the twoThat's why when they race in the US they always loose.
I'm a lightweight, (1.78m, 60kg), i've been going to judo for some months now, I'm liking it a lot, but, is it comparable/better to wrestling? Especially for a guy my size, I always thought wrestling would be useless as from what I know, it uses a lot of raw strength, while judo (though it still uses strength) is better suited for taking down heavier/stronger people. Is this right? Should I try doing some wrestling? I find judo very good but also sometimes limited by the sport
>>244200>This is more of a demonstration of skill than pure strength. The base throw works by pulling your opponent a big off balance, tripping them over your hips, and guiding them to the ground with your arms:It's been over a decade since I've done any judo, but I feel like you could resist this by wrapping yourself around your opponent surely?Or would that be against the rules?
>>244204>It's been over a decade since I've done any judo, but I feel like you could resist this by wrapping yourself around your opponent surely?There are counters to every throw. The trick is to use them in a context where they're not going to be countered. This is a common throw in judo and wrestling so it's not particularly gimmicky. >Or would that be against the rules?You can do that but if your balance is adequately broken it's not going to work. If your balance isn't adequately broken you can turn it into a solid counter throw:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fgi9b8DJ5sQ
>>244212>There are counters to every throw. The trick is to use them in a context where they're not going to be counteredI don't mean in the sense of a judo counter, because I understand that in sports judo the scoring system is somewhat artificial in the way it scores knockdowns, I mean that even if you end up at the bottom of a pin the choke is backwards for applying pressure to the neck and you're in a position to apply a reverse choke right?I'm sure getting slammed into concrete rather than a mat would hurt more (and if you didn't know any break falls then you're probably going to get badly injured) but I feel like even if the throw is successful it's not decisive
>>244223>you're in a position to apply a reverse choke right?Not really, you'd have to break the pin before being in a position to try a choke. Your only option on the mat is to fight into position to roll out of it (you do kind of wrap around your opponent for some of these techniques, perhaps that what you meant) and your only extra options off the mat are to pull a weapon or try to fish for an eye gouge (however, the person applying the pin is in a better position to pull a weapon, employ an eye gouge, or switch to a more serious attack). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_TS0YHdxcQhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEmKk3m8nwEI've used this pin to subdue people off the mat who needed a moment to calm down and rethink their life choices after trying to hit me. I've used it when sparring with weapons to isolate my opponent's weapon hand, strip the weapon, and resume an armed attack against an unarmed opponent. It's very effective and it gives you the ability to scale force from lightly controlling someone to absolutely crushing the air out of their lungs (if they're not a grappler used to that kind of pressure, which most people aren't). It's my favorite pin in judo, my favorite pin off the mat, and one of my favorite pins in wrestling (stacking someone up on his neck with a double chicken wing is a little more entertaining).
>>244232Fair enough, I'll defer to your experience then
Imagine being so hated they design infrastructure against you
>>242503if you wanna skate that badly people will do this unironicallyi remember when the city closed down the local skatepark, never stated a reason why. Some pulled up with his truck snd ripped off the fence snd got arrested
>>242556I enjoy that it does both.
>>242468>>242479>fall and get injured>sue city
>>242468Skaters unironically destroyed the social concept of "older automatically the boss of younger" way more than rock n roll fags. >with a skateboard I can talk shit to whoever I want>there's probably people I can talk shit to around hereI was just a poser that skated for travel, but we would skate for hours and be all tired and see some guy guy walking or something and just yell "hey fuck you!" and people would typically get mad and maybe chase and that would give us the energy we needed to continue. Your friends don't want to leave somewhere? Throw a bottle or some shit at a moving truck driving by and force everybody to run. It was all stupid as fuck and made nobody better, but it kept us out of real trouble for the most part. It's the retards that fell on property like this skating and sued that messed it up for everybody btw.
>>244183No, it was retarded faggots like you who ruined it for everyone who just wanted to skate.
