Is Red Bull marketing an extreme sport?
>>234034>They expect one of us in the wreckage brother
Maybe the drinks wouldn't be $3.50 for an 8oz can if they stopped doing shit like this

I feel like it's more of a collegiate sport.
>>231223>Could this be considered an extreme sport?yea, the problem is you can only do it onceyou'll either die or go to prison for a long time
>>236855>you can only do it onceThis is demonstrably untrue. I have seen people, with my own eyes, drink driving on multiple occasions and neither of those things happened to them. Don't get me wrong: I don't like it, I don't condone it, I don't think anyone should do it. But what you said is at best not entirely true, if not just generally wrong.
Pretty new to it as a professional sport but I'm planning to continue doing it through USA Waterski. Anyone else here do it at least semi-athletically?
>>230994Self bump cause come the fuck onMain for those interests is USAwaterskihttps://www.usawaterski.org/
>>230994I tried wakeboarding a couple times on holidays. It's harder than i thought.
>>230994>new to it as a professionalso you are new and already a professional making money competing in water skiing? right.

>>237651I think the over under on him for this one would be 7.5 wins. Daiesho being gone makes me lean more towards 8, but I could still see a MK happening if the high makuuchi show up. People like WMH and Ohou shouldn't be free for him.
>>237654Everyone Sekiwake+ should be an instant loss, as should anyone who's been able to hold the rank like WMH or Abi. Danfag aside, watching him is going to be the next best thing after watching the Yokozuna murder everyone.

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.

>>236408I saw "matador" and thought at first that you were suggesting that OP be the bull in a bull fight, since bulls are generally held to lower standards than humans.
>>236409this is real in the dirt fighting. The loser got up and wanted to fight again and was punished for his stupdity. Anyone can fight, getting into a fight is easy, but your oppenent may not have any mercy on you and no one may step in to save you. I just found this channel, will watch all vids before it gets banned.
>>236410>will watch all vids before it gets bannedThere are several methods by which you could archive the YouTube channel if you're worried about that.
Is this legit or just another bullshido scam? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kDhkslEgGk
I'm gonna do martialism. Kung Fu classes. Choy Lay Fut style.
>>219435Why boxing instead of Muay Thai?
>>227530Cause it was talking about hands and muay thai is GARBAGE at punching.
Wang Chung is effective because it is street fighting derived. It all strait beeline punching, other forms of kung fu are not so and are mostly bullshit fighting techniques.
>>219420that was not a bar fight, just homos doing a mating ritual. avoid bar fights at all costs. You will be f'd up faster than you know if you start crap with someone who knows what they are doing. You will be lucky to not get shot or stabbed multiple times before you knew the fight even started.
>>235921Ive only ever seen one topuris fight and all i gotta day is that fucker can box
>>235921Topuria is cool and it was a great winBut i cant help feeling like Pantoja should be much higher up in the pound for pound rankings than he is. Pantoja's the only champ right now that you could say has actually cleared out his entire division. If he beats that Josh Van kid, thats 5 title defenses. Really impressive stuff

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 types of training can i do to keep up in the meantimedepending on what kind of shoulder injury, practicing head movement might be a very good use of your time. wouldn't help your boxing but it probably wouldn't be a bad idea to get good at straight kicks and push kicks in case you ever got in a street fight. both valuable tools that don't take a lot of time to get down decently.
>>232082Tyson did a ton of squats when he was in prison.
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.
>>235195He squatted on BWC
While following video guides and doing bag work and drills? There is no boxing gym or any martial art gym near me.
Yes. Shadow boxing is useful. Practice posture and movements, and build strong fundamentals in that. I wish you the best of success
>>220303God that's retarded. Even for here, that's really retarded.
>>220362>if sparring isn't the most important part of all trainingHave to build the right foundation before you start sparring or your sparring will be worthless.
>>214001If you train at home, you can develop good conditioning, and get a basic grasp of what you're supposed to be doing, but the problem is that without proper coaching you're going to develop a lot of bad habits that will be hard to break when you do get proper coaching. Without sparring, you won't be able to develop timing, distance judgement, proper movement and defense, and those are among the most important things to develop for fighting.Regardless, I'd go ahead and train by yourself just for the fitness aspect alone.
>>214001Nah, you will definitely develop bad habits that will be hard to get rid of later.
I don't do tricks, I do stunts edition
>>236250kek i clicked a clickbait video thinking who is this kook? looked at the channel and enjoyed the pete townend vid. I just checked the real skate stories channel never seen it, but wow quite a bit to watch.. will reserve judgement of him
>>236252It is up to taste really. Do you remember the Gifted versus the youtuber who defended the Mike Mo league? Tony commented under the youtuber (it wasn't Dumb Data, it was someone else, can't remember, black dude) saying something along the lines of "yeah man, I totally get you, contests are good" etc. And he also keeps a bit of the bias of the day, I think it is due to nostalgia.
NEW THREAD FUCK A LINK USE THE CATALOG
>>236263No, we always link here
If you are shit at skating or doing something crazy wear pads, picrel. I'm not exactly old, but slamming so hard I guess it was bound to get fucked.
......morpheous!who has the free stream links to the Jake Paul vs Chavez Jr fight?
>>235914They are all constantly buffering. I wouldn't even bother.
I have shekels to burn and have no other hobbytell me why I shouldn't do paramotoring
>>230887the cliff one seems extreme but yea that's the one I had in mind when posting. never knew there was an airplane version. ah well
>>209064Can someone explain what happened here? Did he collide with a pylon or something?
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.
~~Magnus Midtbø is a Sellout Edition~~>Where do I start?People typically start in the gym and branch off outdoors and find their niche, be it bouldering, trad, sport or a mixture of the above. Some never leave the gym at all. Ultimately it doesn't matter - just get started and enjoy yourself.>How fit do I have to be to start? Do I have to be able to do x amount of pull-ups?Being light, strong and flexible helps at the higher levels but climbing is open to almost anyone and is fairly intuitive to most. Even if your body is feeble and weak now, you will develop strength over time by virtue of just climbing. Climbing is a holistic sport and success often hinges upon many factors, not just strength and power, but having these qualities definitely helps when you breach into the higher grades.>What shoes do I buy?If you're starting out in the gym, don't worry too much: get some snug shoes without dead space that don't cause you lasting pain. Some people (such as the famed shoe designer Heinz Mariacher) recommend wearing soft shoes when you're starting out -- this makes sense since your footwork will probably suck and the increased feedback will pay dividends over time. You really don't need fancy expensive shoes when you're starting out, but certain shoe properties help send harder problems (e.g. stiff shoes for standing on tiny granite edges or soft shoes for sandstone/gritstone smears).Here are some useful resources for sizing:>https://sizesquirrel.com/>https://rockrun.com/blogs/the-flash-rock-run-blog/rock-climbing-shoe-sizing-guideComment too long.

>>242667Just get a diagnosis, maybe you think it's bowstringing or its not, maybe it is but it's just an anatomical thing, idk. Go to an ortho, preferably one who gets lots of climbing patients (Sports docs), and get it checked. If it's painless, that's a good sign, maybe you don't have to rest for as long, but if a tendon is bowstringing, something is at play.
>>242530>>242533>5'7>67kg and bulkingOnce I hit 70kg, I'll start cutting and go down to 60.>inb4 you won't I started at 58 and got to 67 over the course of two years. I still have the same appetite I had before the bulk (none).
>>242667You’ll want an ultrasound not an MRI. Hope it’s not bowstringing, that would be very bad>>242663You still have tendonitis? Sounds like your advice doesn’t work. I would suggest no one follow this bizarre mantra of “rest is bad” that only exists on this board, or you’ll have permanent tendonitis like poor old anon here
>>242726>You still have tendonitis? Sounds like your advice doesn’t workYou're retarded. I'm inclined to think your comment is bait though, it certainly reads like it. Tendonitis is mild inflammation to joints, usually caused by overuse of excessive forces>Excessive forcesMeaning if the force is not excessive, i.e. if the tendon strengthens, then it can be tolerated. Like I said, I can do full days of climbing (4-5 hours) then add weighted chin-ups at the end. My arms feel completely normal. If you think doing one-arm negatives aren't the most strenuous thing you can do to your bicep tendons, you're probably physically untrained and have never bothered to exert yourself. And that mild episode cleared up in 2 days.Like I said originally - In any sport, you're going to have random shit go wrong. Everyone has their poison. Some people fuck their knees, others their shoulders, and learn to rehab. Sometimes shit happens, and you learn to deal with it. But it's been 5+ years since I've had something actually require me to take time off from climbing.>you’ll have permanent tendonitis like poor old anon hereLearn to read.
>>241170>everything is sandbagged thereSo I've learned. We decided to play it safe with a 5.6 route up Cathedral Peak and still almost came down in the dark. What an amazing place to climb.
