Most overrated Skateboarder of all time. All this dude ever did was ollie, no comply, boneless, and caveman boardslides. He couldn't grind for shit, couldn't manual for shit. All his parts suck ass. How he was ever considered like a great legend I will never know.
>>246365Fucking this. He's "contributing" too much.
>>246323>pretty underground as far as skaters goHe's literally in 6 THPS games. You almost couldn't be less underground in the skating realm.
>>246367You want to try to disprove Vallely as a shit skater by posting this?? LMAO.Though it does make me miss the old days where you could just fs 180 off a 1 1/2ft kicker and the crowd goes wild lmao.
>Most overrated Skateboarder of all timeBut enough about Tony Hawk.
>>244717I swore this guy's name was Mike Valley
>>252144I think they talk the most shit out of anyone relative to how much they never fight
>>252186They also slap and it was a form developed by women, so the theory checks out. TKD is fairly gay however. You ever watch it at the olympics? Just tiny thin gooks flaling pant legs at each other for contact with 0 power. Its like the flag football of martial arts.
>>252210I can find things to respect about shit martial arts, some redeeming quality that makes them worthwhileFor TKD I am impressed by the flexibility and balance they cultivate. Even if it's not good for fighting the up side of physical fitness is always a good qualityI don't think I have anything nice to say about WC

Any Pickleball enjoyers in here? We started playing at work every day for a few hours and HOLY SHIT.. it's good
I've never been but I ordered some paddles. Will my $25 Walmart paddles work ok?
>>243237Dude you should try this thread over on /spThough, pickleball is extreme af.. I saw some guys with face tattoos playing pickleball and they were dri king redball and getting real rowdy.
>>243237I pickle my balls in your mouth, retard.
there are pickleball courts near my local skatepark and its all balding old men and hot zoomer chicks
>>243237>at work>playing for a few hoursYou don't have a job, you're in daycare.

How risky is it to learn to box with vision problems? Is it possible to learn real boxing, meaning with sparring, if you have myopia or moderate astigmatism? I can't stand feeling so insecure about my body and my lack of willpower
>>250634I'm short sighted and i do kickboxing, it's not a problem, the distance where you throw punches is close enough, yeah you might be at a small disadvantage but it's not like you're aiming for world championship. If you're really worried do grappling instead.
>>250634my vision kinda sucks, the honest answer is that it depends. You're not going to need super hawk vision for anything, you're not looking for them to clench their first in a magic death punch or nothing. If you can see their body and the general twist of their hands, that's gonna be sufficient.
>>250634use the force
>>250634You can adapt with training. Naoya Inoue sustained a cut during a boxing match against Donaire, which impeded his vision. He compensated by gluing his right hand over his compromised eye, which he learned from watching Donaire himself when it happened to him in a previous fight. webm relatedPrior to getting eye surgery, former interim UFC champion Justin Gaethje was almost legally blind.>20/60 in one eye and 20/200 in another eye>far sighted in one eye and nearsighted in another eyeHis fighting style at the time reflected this. He used a forward-pressure style with a high guard and relied on taking hits on his forearms and wrestling with his hands to know whether they were close enough to hit.
>>250634There was a local famous heavyweight who wore thick "Bubbles-style" glasses when he wasn't fighting
hi /xs/ this is my cat rupert, hes a very adventurous cat and i was thinking about going skydiving with him. ive been skydiving before and i liked it, does anyone have any experience skydiving with a cat, or any pet?
>>246088That’s a pretty shitty idea anon, stressing the hell out of your cat for no reason is just abuse. Rupert is very cute though.
>>246088wait, like, THE Rupert? Like picrelated?
Rumor has it if a cat has enough time to right itself and spread out their terminal velocity is lower than what it takes to injur them so beyondNo gear required, just drop him and he'll be fine
>>251648OP is this you

~~Hangboarding 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.

>>258394>Obvious growth in every type of climbing EXCEPT trad climbing, which shows noticeable decreaseYou're probably one of those boomers who's gonna get killed using decade old tat, who seethes whenever you see a zoomer flash your project. You're literally a statistic waiting to happen.>gyms exist as containment areas for people who are too stupid to learn how to tie a knotLOL, like you learned how to do it by yourself? Your anchors are probably ass, and you've probably taken more whippers than any of the new gen ever will. Virtually everyone learns from a mentor, guide, or trad-dad, so who are you gate-keeping exactly? >tfw lives 5 hours away from nearest cliff faceBut if it means living close to bumpkins like you, maybe it's good I only climb /out/ 10 times a year. I'll be looking out for you in the next obituary anon.

>hard sparring>more than 4x a yearCouldn't be me!
>>240331>display a lack of reading comprehensionProjecting after misreading my comment. sad.
>>240049as an amateur, i like heavy sparring because i find it fun. As long as you make a rule of not trying to kill your partner (as in, be careful with head-hits), both parties can enjoy it.I dislike light sparring as it gives amateurs false confidence in their abilities, and people can take advantage of that you'll be slower by spamming range like side-kicks.
>>240146>BOSS in south africa?Wtf is this.
If you don't like sparring then don't spar, it's that simple. If you want to test yourself knowing that you're going to get hit in the head, then go for it. Boxing's not for everyone.
>>240146I think in the military they just shoot people and if that doesn't work they stab them
what martial art should i do after taekwondo? i'm currently abt to be a black belt in ITF taekwondo and i noticed that it kinda sucks due to the lack of handwork.ive been thinking of exploring either judo (since im pretty big) or eskrima (for grappling techniques and knifeplay). in general im looking for a style that is more hands-focused to go with the footwork of taekwondo
>>247891Kickboxing. Look, I might have a retarded vision of things here, but I see Taekwondo and Aikido as very similar martial arts. Laughed upon, misunderstood, with too many mcdojos and clowns. In short, ineffective. But what I also noticed when doing kickboxing is that taekwondo guys have a style that's powerful and unconventional. They have to adapt to some KB stuff, but some go into fights with a taekwondo style, almost like fencing with their leg, and it works. Kind of like this girl, but less obvious https://www.youtube.com/shorts/2ShTujCVJzcSo I think that Taekwondo is like a DLC for Kickboxing. I mentioned Aikido because I think it's like a DLC for Judo and BJJ, but that's a whole other can of worms
>>247891Will you become an amazing all around fighter who can threaten competent fighters? Probably notCan you kick a crackhead in the chest and make him rethink his decision? Probably yesNot everyone has to be super optimal MMA guy
>>247891Since you have kicks boxing or kick boxing. Escrima seems cool but hard to find a good gym.
>>247891Combat Sambo if you can find, you can make Combat TKD! https://youtube.com/shorts/B4LIsuuFR6w
boxing or any grappling martial art. boxing because taekwondo, no matter the type, has shitty punching technique and defense (check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pn98RdwPw48 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nz-kU1X0Q2I, which are boxers beating taekwondoins from the ITF). grappling martial arts because you only know striking and MAYBE some takedowns (if your school actually teached you them), since you said you're big then any will do, though judo would be my main recommendation
those that aim to redirect the oponent's energy, like aikido, hapkido, daito ryu, taijutsu, etc. i'm kinda interested in them, especially taijutsu and hapkido, but dunno what i should expect exactly (in order to not fall into a mcdojo), so if anyone has experience in them please share, as well as your thoughts on them
>>249339At the schools I've visited kata seems to be mostly a niche old guy activity or done only for higher belt promotions.
>>246409Actually that's real and not from one of Seagal movies. It's hard to tell because he's always pure kino.
>>246396I don't think the idea of taijutsu is just redirection. It's more like fucking around until the oponent has no tension, then exploiting that.
>>246396If you want to learn the art go for it but don't expect to be able to use the techniques they way they teach you because they teach it wrong for fighting, do it for the love of the game.That said the core principle of redirecting energy is legit and legit overpowered if you do it right.The most important thing to learn is the twitch from daito ryu, i call it like that idk if it has an actual name but what they do is that they do a tiny push or pull to get you to resists in the opposite motion and then do the technique opposite to your reaction, for example they first bump you back so you resists forward and then pull you as you resists, its a tiny motion, almost imperceptible but 100% legit and you can use this concept in more legit martial arts like mma, wrestling and judo.Aikido does basically the same thing but in a circular motion, all you need from aikido is to instead of resisting head on, to simply move to the side and rotate to push or pull the opponent into you.Hapkido is literally just aikido but fast and explosive and teaches how to use the techniques against karate style striking which is slightly better than aikido.If you must I would recommend hapkido because they are legit athletic as fuck, you learn basically everything aikido and daito ryu do and then you can do something more legit focusing on the concepts of energy redirection, not the techniques they teach you, only the concept.
OP here, so in the end i ended up getting into BJJ and it's been a lot of fun. these three months have been great and i've learned a ton of stuff. i would've liked to get into hapkido but there are no dojangs nearby =(.>>250726sound cool, didn't realize that. wish the bujinkan wasn't a scam though :/.>>251051thanks for the explanation! i'd love to get into one of these martial arts someday, especially hapkido, hopefully i'll find some place that isn't like 2 hours from where i live •~•
