lets say your walking down the street and u bump into a guy. one things leads into another your granted a fair 1v1 no weapons only limbs. (kicks and whatnot allowed) but you cant back out. what kind of clothing would be best? would you regular street wear help you? i usally wear a nike tech fleece very breathable and moveable material and typical sneakers. only thing that might through me off is if im wearing some jeans that day. i think perfect fighting outfit would be a good sports tracksuit like the nike tech suit and some sort of sneaker that u can grip the floor in and kick with but thats not too limiting. on the foot

Why are BJJ channels such obnoxious faggots?
>>250875it is reasonable to assume someones friend may jump in and start kicking you in the head if your rolling around on the floor trying to get some dudes arm in a hold
which martial art (that you can realistically go and find a training center for) is actually the best for winning unarmed fights? or at least the best at improving your odds in a real life fight (because it often does come down to luck as much as skill, and who throws the first punch)
>>261807They don’t hand out medals for street fighting and most of the time, despite what shows up in world star highlight videos, what actually happens is two guys swing for about 5-15 seconds, get broken up and then both sides go home saying they totally kicked that guys ass.Your most important goals are going to be defending against punches to the head avoiding getting tackled as those are what’s most likely going to be the average gorilla retards attempt at trying to hurt you. So a single martial art that trains striking and some amount of stand up grappling is going to be “best”. Something like Sambo, Sanda, or Muay Thai. All that said, from a practical perspective, as long as your training an actual combat sport and not ninja larp, time spent in the gym is more important than the specific martial art you do. For that reason just try whatever’s in your area and then stick with what you actually enjoy practicing.
>>250881>his friend slips it in from behind>Th-this is my fetish
like half of the people that are serious about bjj got bullied so hard in highschool that they think about it before every training session. bjj guys will roll up 7 dudes deep and hang out at bars sober to start shit with people. theres lots of pathetic people like that in bjj.

>>258984I almost know that feel I almost hit my sensei in men when we were just doing our kirikaeshi and instead of going the usual right I went left since my brain dropped the ball completely. I stopped right before it just seeing the look of my sensei just crumpled me into a tissue.
>pre-war kendo allowed strikes during sonkyofuuuuark. I wish I could punish people for not taking sonkyo seriously.
Ok, I'll be the brave soul and say what everyone else is thinking.I wish I could use the korean velcro hakama.
did my first ever tournament in kyuu, managed to snatch one win (even if the third guy forfeited) and could've almost done one more.all in all it was fun while it lasted, but showed i'm still lacking a lot physically but also mentally. i was quite lucky today.
>>261595Tournaments are really important to highlight weak areas in your technique and spirit.I hope you had a friend record your shiai so you can see for yourself the parts that don’t work from an outside prospective.Anyway, nicely done the first tournament is something that you won’t forget.

Where do you sit on the tradition vs sport debate?
>>259715traditions are perpetually becoming sports
Tradition to me implies an unbroken lineage which is not what we have today in martial arts or things like HEMA. All the Chinese stuff is basically made up (did you know all these "ancient" kung fu styles post-date Queensberry rules boxing?). HEMA is just dweebs with pony tails trying their best to recreate things from books, but it's preposterous to pretend that these dweebs are somehow in the same continuum as a guy that was getting into actual sword fights 16th century Venice or whatever.Sports are ultimately also much more effective manifestations of whatever art they're based on because they actually compete and engage in the thing they're teaching (albeit in simulated ways). Any Olympic style fencer that tries HEMA ends up destroying everybody because of superior fundamentals like foot work and distance management (let's not even talk about sports combat vs kung fu guys, we all know how that goes). Culture clashing in reality is a common theme throughout humanity, and in the end it's always reality that wins out. How you feel about that is up to you.
Stupid unrealistic shit. Both would get slaughtered.A swordsman with no shield gets slaughtered by a spearman with no shield 99% of the time.A swordsman or a spearman with no shield gets slaughtered by anyone with a bow or just darts. Every Roman soldier carried with him a bunch of darts for this reason.
Is the debate between sport vs “tradition” or do you mean something like sport vs “martial art”.Any sport can be a tradition. Even if you believe kendo is a sport, it’s still a tradition. Just because something is traditional doesn’t make it more realistic or whatever.Arguably, HEMA is less of a tradition than kendo, as it is a reconstructed art. But I guess that depends on your idea of tradition.>>261245A Roman soldier would be easily dispatched by my Glock 19
>>261245swordsman with no shield has no shield because he's completely armored against your stupid darts

>>258718its just fact man riding a jetski once causes minor but permanent CTE
>>258721Sure dudeMaybe blinking too much? Somebody giving you a jumpscare?
All the uproar about boxing deaths is based on emotionalism rather than rational reasoning. People have crunched the numbers, and there have been less than 500 fatalities since the 1950's, and that's out of millions of bouts. A disproportionate numbers are also from before 1983, which is when they tightened up a lot of safety regulations. Since 2000 there's about 1-2 fatalities per year, on average. Being a pizza delivery driver is probably more dangerous than being a boxer. Two fighters dying on the same card is a complete freak statistical anomaly, and as unfortunate as it is, it's not really representative of anything.It doesn't even relate to sparring, anyway. Dying from subdermal hematoma because you got walloped for 12 rounds straight by a pro boxer is a completely different ball game than playing patty cake at 30% intensity at your local gym Muay Thai gym.Also if you want a real redpill, the clinical evidence we have for CTE even existing in the first place is very poor, let alone its prevalence.

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.
>>247103couldn't be me
>>247103Personally, I can't stand anything smaller than 90. 110 is best, feels like flying. On small wheels you kick back 10 times to reach the speed I get in two kicks, might as well run in place just to waste your energy lmao>inb4 muh slidesdon't give a shit bro, I skate for speed not show-off le slides with 50% chance of falling, injuring myself and missing out on the skating season
I skate spitefire classic 52mm cuz i do sick tricks, but i also have a cruiser with some thick OJs
>>260992This kind of post is to be expected from someone who confuses durometer with size, and admits they miss half their tricks. I'm sure people are very impressed when you show off your speed.
>>261014no he's a longboarder lol. 110 durometer doesn't exist and he can't slide. ud be sliding all over with 100 durometer

>>2554171 year in but how many stripes and how much do you train? If you don't train often you are basically less than 1 stripe. Also it's pretty common new people join and they either have experience, are judo people or wrestlers. I've tapped blue/purple belts by them just going into turtle and me going oh this is like judo I'll just British roll his ass into a bow and arrow. That's the type of newfags you will spar with sometimes and we won't really talk about it.I also suck at retaining guard so join the club.
>>255474Almost nothing in terms of takedowns from what I've seen and heard. Don't go to bjj expecting to learn a standing game. In Judo you will likely spend maybe 20% of your time in newaza.
>>256280training dummy to practice techniques on, it's super gay and just a matter of time till you slit it a new asshole and put a fleshlight in it.
>>256584Partly true you have next to no takedown game and you don't need more newaza knowledge than what an orange belt has and he is better at explosiveness and top pressure in a real fight.

What's the most extreme possible situation in disc golf?
>>259380Disc goes into river. You dont want to lose the 20 bucks that that disc cost. You wade into river and almost drown. That or you twist an ankle in the woods. Or medial epicondylitis from bad throwing form.
