/sdg/Skydive general No whuffos allowed. Current news:Looks like the son of VP of the USPA has broken some rules, as well as his ankles when he took bachelor contestant Rachel on a tandem skydive. Dumb fuck did a low turn on final and fuckin smashed his shit up. Surprisingly the USPA will probably let him keep his tandem rating even though he’s a 20yo retard who’s mom owns a DZ and is on the board for USPAnepotism for sure
>>16955Oh yeah, harness/container is an infinity. It's fine.

>>18560Yeah but still, considering how absolutely fucking nothing is designed for people over 6' I still don't trust shit I don't give a fuck if it's Disney world or whatever.
>>18560why are you on /xs/ if you don't want to do anything fun
>>12253imagine taking this fucking board seriously
>>12253I mean basically the entire term? it's very non-specific

>>666fucker
skateboarders of /xs/ , what was your biggest battle with a skate spot. how long did it took you to land a trick on that spot
>>18957biggest battle was trying to do manual 360s on one wheel with any consistency like kevin harris or rodney mullen
>tfw too much of a pussy to drop in on a miniramp after countless days and motivation from friends
>>18730it's harder to battle through that kind of madness in front of other people imo. try going to the park at like 1 am so you can just do everything you need to in order to mentally prepare yourself without having to worry about not looking crazy in front of a bunch of teenagers.also buttsliding down the ramp a few times kind of helps make it feel less big. i worked my way up by dropping in on all the dirtbike jumps too just to get used to the feeling of vert.
Just gear up. I won’t crawl in an attic without more gear than your mom would suggest you use at 5. Anti PPE is gay and for kids
>>18745oh and also idk if this helps but maybe try setting a reward for yourself. for the 8 footer i basically went through all the madness and then promised myself to go for it and no matter if it was a make or slam i'd get some cheetohs. you reach a certain point where you just go fuck it i don't even care if i slam i just want my cheetohs
>>18730Ok try this next time. Do you have knee pads? If you do get up and slide down on your pads. If not get up there and slide down on your butt a few times. Also put your board on the coping in the 50-50 position, stand on it and lean in a bit so you slide right into the transition, but at a bit of an angle. That's how I got used to the feeling of being up on the deck and then coming back in.
accept that you gonna fall , coming in terms with possible fate is the only obstacle in skateboarding.its all in the mind
Post 'em, give us your most extreme
>>17606hell no
>>17889KEK
>>17889the only thing missing is "that gay blowjob" on the left
>>17606Douse me in baby oil and call me Orville Wright.
>>18537I just realized after a year, maybe longer of seeing this photo, that he didn't get a T-Shirt that says "DUCK!" It was the most confusing thing.
Touge driving or driving canyon roads fast by yourself is an extreme sport.Do you togue or drive the switchbacks? What car do you drive? I drive a BMW M5. It's heavy and fun to throw around.
>>18929Touge, proper spelling is:Tōge
>>18930fuck off weeb, no one has time for your wack ass keyboard, if you wanted it spelt correctly spell it in kanji
DUDE, RADICAL
>>18743it do be that way
Its funny, I'd say manualing is harder on a skateboard than a bike, but one foot manual is harder on a bike then a one foot manual on a board.

>Round #1/box/ is a community home to the sport of boxing. Post tips, questions, gear and routines relating to the training of boxing as an amateur sport. Discussion of professional boxing is welcome as well
>>17207>ReplyNo.
Can someone answer this? >>16637
>>16692Bare-knuckle boxing would be a good thread to have on /xs/ now that you mention it. It'd fit in better with the motif of the board as well.
>>18152Why not try boxing anyway? Go to a gym and see how you do. Only you can decide what works for you.You don't have to be the best at boxing. As long as it's fun for you, you're not wasting time or anything.Also, tried these things for pushups? They're supposedly better for your wrists
>>18255I suppose so. I just wanted to know how important shape and structure of hands and forearms were in boxing. I used to go to gym with my friend, I couldn't even do half of the reps my friend did when it came to bench press lying down. But I easily beat him in leg game. My arms feel really weak.
/sp/ is too fast for /marble/ during non-Marble League periods, so this could be the base for this extreme sporting event during most of the year>NewsMarbula One Season 2 returns from its break starting with race 7Oceanics managed to win the 2021 Winter Marble League, redeeming themselves after their disastrous 2019 Marble League outing>What is Marble League?The Marble League is a tournament that features the most decorated and dedicated marble sports athletes. Every year, teams of five marbles compete in Qualifiers and the top 12 teams, along with 4 automatically qualified teams, advance to the main tournament. After an exquisite opening ceremony, the 16 teams perform in a series of events that are inspired by real-world Olympic events, earning medals and scoring points towards an overall total. The team with the most points at the end of the tournament is the team that wins the Marble League, standing at the top of the podium during the closing ceremony and having the honor of extinguishing the torch at the end of each year.>Channel Linkhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYJdpnjuSWVOLgGT9fIzL0g/videos>Official Websitehttps://www.marble-sports.comComment too long.

how do you avoid fucking up yourself when skateboarding
>>16658I like doing kickturns, speed checks and manuals so I’d rather get a skateboard. Its fun to ride down hills and go up driveways then kickturn back down the street, I feel like I’m surfing.
>>16341Fun night. You can't see your feet in a frilly lace dress either
>>16658longboards are faster and smoother but less versatile. with a normal skateboard curbs don't get in the way when you learn to ollie.
>>8644You in /esg/?
>>16515Sorry anon, still not gay, flattered though!>>16716Looks fuckin sick, I've never gotten to skate with a crew like that but seems like a hell of a time
why did it die in the states?
got my usd sway 60s today but they're wayyyyy to narrow :|
>>18764what size i'll trade you
>>76Because boots are for fruits
>>18861they're the 8-9 size and i cant even put my foot in them when they're laced
snow and murky conditions are almost gone bros, i can't waitmaybe i won't be such a lazy fuck this year compared to the last 2
Lol he's a very poor street skater with avarage vert runs, despite his lucky 900 (which every skater who tries to lan it at least 2 thousand times like he did is capable to do) The game series should've been called Burnquist Pro Skater
>>18725what the fuck is this non-sensemost 80s So Cal guys didnt do anything outside occasional pot or beer, and he was skating county fair parking lots before the video game
tony hawk was 31 when he landed the 900dont let anyone ever tell you that your too old to skate
>>18804this is actually lifefuel.ty anon
>>18718well, I mean his dad "invented" 720 nosebones
>>13806Anyone judging Tony by his X games runs is a newfag who should neck themselves. Tony’s legacy comes from when he was the top Vert pro in the world from around 1984 to 1990
