why is skiing culture like this?
>>190133we actually had that happen here a few years ago where someone tried ripping off a bunch of stuff from ski shops and got caught instantly once they put it on ebay
>>190134>>190133I'd imagine a nonzero amount of thieves either rent their equipment or don't actually even use any, so details fall to the wayside.

thoughts on bullfighting and other bloodsports???
Mexican here, been to 2 bullfighting events in my life and leaving the animal cruelty aside (I literally don't give a shit, I love steak), it was THE MOST BORING fucking thing I've ever attended. I get it has 100 layers of rules and traditions and culture and all that fucking bullshit, whoopdy fucking doo, who cares if the event is a complete fucking snoozefest? It pisses me off knowing there are people who give a shit about it. Absolute braindead motherfuckers. And my state (Aguascalientes) is one of the biggest bullfighting state in the country. Fuck my life.
savagery for people with moorish ancestors.
Running with the bulls is better
>>189991okay now what do you think of cock fighting?
>>189639large cultural tradition, seems interesting. Bulls are stupid as fuck and they use the meat afterwards from what I hear anyways. Anyone have a video or something of a Matador killing the bull, like in the final act? I'm curious to see it, can't find footage anywhere. if you search you only get matadors getting gored by the bull instead.
Can I be still be good at martial arts if i have a bad knee?
>>191415Fix your knee. How is it bad?

>>191417>Illegal below brown beltMost gyms now a days start training leg locks at blue.My own gym starts at white, once they can prove they're done spazzing
>>191523It's just a holdover that then became a copeJudo said no more leglocks because in 1890 there was no such thing as arthroscopic surgery or knee replacementsSo the Brazilians didn't learn leglocks because they were removed from the syllabus before it got to themThe end result is Brazilians were bad at leglocks therefore BAN! And make up some ridiculous cope that they're 2dedly4u even though they're no more dangerous than any other submissionUnlike a choke, twisting someone's knee never killed or paralyzed themLeglocks are non-fundemental so they can wait for later on that front. But no reason you can't introduce them to someone within their first year

Is the cymbal crash an effective strike in a fight? For those who don't know, it's a strike that involves using both your hands in sort of a palm strike where you smack both of them on each side of the opponent's temple.Very effective in grappling and clinch fighting when bare-handed or using lighter gloves as you can clear distance faster while also obtaining either an overhand or double overhand grip.
>>192234Doing it with just one hand is 2x better
>>192236How do you figure?
Why not just clap their ears at that point? Seems better and you don't even need to be particularly strong to pull it off.
>>192234It’s retarded and would never work unless you’re hitting someone standing perfectly still and not expecting to be hit. At that point just sucker them on the jaw and knock them out

>>189230Kimura was invetned by a judoka when he broke a Gracies arm
>>179138Greco roman won't touch the legs, and judo is too focused on the collar/sleeve. I desperately want an infusion of Eastern European judo guys because they can transition from Georgian A/B to over/under hooks without a complete overhaul.

Any of you practice any FMA empty hands, specifically grappling? I've seen Yaw-Yan and other FMA striking styles but never the bunohan/grappling.
>>191074I studied some Filipino dirty boxing which consists of elbows, wrist locks, and take down holds. I also want to find a Silat teacher, Silat is culturally the best compliment to Filipino weapons . I really don't like the vibe of Yaw-Yan, it feels too much like American Kickboxing mixed with Filipino commercialization.
>>187193>/AEKG/Why didn't you just go with /fma/ - Filipino Martial Arts like a normal person?
>>191905It's annoying how difficult it is to just refer to FMA by one name. The way I make sense of it all is most Northern FMA practioners call it Arnis. Practittioners from Visayas, Cebu, and Mindano will mostly call it Escrima, Then there is another group who will insist on calling it Kali because Escrima and Arnis are derived from spanish terms for fencing Escgrima and Arnis de Mano.
>>187221Yaw Yan is not a traditional Filipino Martial Art.. It's a modern hybrid creation like how Jeet Kune Do and American Kempo were created . In many ways it's much more of a brand, just by examining the name of it Yaw Yan means "The Dance of Death" It looks fun, and I see many of techniques do look effective, but it's a commercialized school practiced in westernized gyms. it's not traditional like the FMA which uses sticks, spears, wooden shields, swords, and knives
I hate those "is X an extreme sport" threads too, but bodybuilding IS an extreme sport. Think about it;>very high fatality rate. At least, higher than mma or rugby or american football>Involves premeditated self destruction (steroid abuse), "includes" the extreme sport of competitive eating\ brutal calorie ingestion daily>Involves basically mummifying yourself trough dehydration to be as ripped\dry as possible at stage>The weight lifting itself is very strict and demanding>there are cases of competitors having to do bar hangs to gain a few MM\ lose or gain a few grams of bodyweight just before the competition starts. Literally body-hacking against the clock

/DGG/ Disc Golf GeneralMy close personal friend Paul McBeth editionSeason is closing out if you live in a shit state sub edition>What is disc golf?Its golf but with frisbees or discs. Generally played at parks that have free courses.>What do I need to get started?A disc and some shoes to walk around comfortably. (You should probably also bring some water anon and maybe download UDisc for a scorecard, or print / make your own)>I'm new what disc should I buy?Pretty much any decent disc will get you out and playing. You don't need to buy a starter set immediately, instead buy a putter and approach disc as its a pretty easy to throw disc for a beginner and then buy more discs from there.>Are there courses around me?Almost certainly, check https://www.dgcoursereview.com/ for a pretty comprehensive list of courses and recommendations as to what ones near you are good.>I bought a starter set and cant throw these things straight or far at all!Go onto youtube and lookup guides idiot. Also learn to throw your putter first. It's most likely the easiest disc to throw in your bag and just because it doesn't fly as fast as a fairway or driver disc, It'll probably fly farther as It WILL fly straighter.Comment too long.

This fight would immidiately end all the "size vs skill" debates
>>187007>>187020BUCK BOUT TO BREAAAAK!!!!!
>>187019>he's sure to win because his speed is superior
>>187007To weigh that much and be that tall he would have poor coordination and no stamina. Him walking at that size would be difficult.
One good hit to the knees of that fat fuck and he's toast. Demetrius would win.
>>187007"Size vs Skill" is a dumb argument because they aren't singular factors. "Size" includes height, weight, reach, strength, and durability. "Skill" includes techniques and maybe strategy. 5 vs 2 is not a fair comparison.
