Was on /asp/ last year (started Judo but then moved for work, no clubs anywhere near here unfortunately), and it was a great place to discuss fightan and martial arts in general.
What the fuck happened to this place? What happened to the mantra of
>bjj/judo/wrestling + muay thai/boxing/kyokushin
Have the WWE manchildren completely wrecked this board?

Just post in the martial arts threads

I know, it's annoying as fuck. I just wish 4Chan would give them their own thread.
So I have a question, I don't know a lot about sambo, why does the chart lead you to it based on age and lack of experience?
>>899521
Because that chart is kinda stupid and arbitrary when it comes to that. You could do any of those styles and be fine regardless of age and location, but good luck finding sambo outside of Russia.
If you had to bet on one to win the fight (disregarding technique or skill)... Which one would you pick? Short haired guy: 5'11 175lbs. Long haired guy: 5'9" 165lbs.

silly thread
The 1st fucker with short hair.Miss long hair may be heavier and bit bigger but sweet cheeks has better developed muscles and is probably faster and has a better condition.
The skelly would fuck up long haired chubs over there
That hair is begging to be pulled in a fight
> What is /asp/ Predicts...?
This is a thread where we all vote and see if we can correctly predict the results of the current PPV.
> What are the rules?
Just simply follow the link to do the survey and that's it. If a match ends in DQ or no contest however, that is scratched from the total for the interest of fairness.
> How's this gonna work?
After each match I will post the updated results to see WHO is on their way to being a clean sweeper.

Worst Rumble ever?
Didn't even have any cool surprise entrants other than AJ who everyone already knew about.
uh no it was great
good wrestling, a lot of people being made to look good, multiple feuds. roman is going to go over hhh at mania, this is good
Best rumble in the last few years desu.
My deanfu looked kind of strong. AJ wasn't totally buried. Sami Zayn vs. KO. Roman wasn't in 60% of it. Not that awful.
I just got one question for you smarks.
Are you ready? TO FLY TONIGHT?

Hopefully he cut his hair and comes out with cool ass music. Styles will impress everyone. Wish Austin Aries would get this treatment
>>899690
its almost likely he will come out to Evil ways since WWE and tna both have rights to the music. the music will possibly just get the R truth treatment since R truth had the same theme in both tna and wwe
evil ways is his best song but it wont work right if he just runs out there. It has to be a slow build.
Kendo thread. How long have you been at it?
I've been thinking about starting iaido along with kendo lately. Does anyone else do both, and have you noticed elements from one seeping into the other? Also, I recently moved to Boston, so if anyone knows any good dojo around there, that'd be cool.
I'm interested in kendo but I know fuck all about it, can you explain why you like it so much anon?
Used to do kendo. Took a break for personal reasons, and didn't return because the culture around it was very "if you don't make kendo your number one priority then we can't respect you." Maybe it was just the dojos in my area though, or maybe I'm just a pansy.
>>868383
Totally worth it despite that though. Maybe it'll be your thing, if you try it, and if it is you'll have lifelong friends around a hobby that makes you mentally and physically fitter. Look/Ask around and see if they...

I'm not sure if I really can, it's just extremely fun to me. When I started out, I actually didn't have a lot of interest in it, but I stuck with it for a while and now it's one of my main hobbies. Probably doesn't help that my main board is /a/ and I have a fetish for nippon swordsmanship. I'd suggest what the other anon said and see if you can try a beginner course.

>What boots should I get?
It is extremely important to get boots that fit you well and to have them heat moulded. Therefore, it is very important to go to a professional bootfitter (not just a ski shop, but specifically a bootfitter). For a list of reputable bootfitters, refer to epicski.com/wiki/boot-fitters-on-epicski
You can also consider getting custom footbeds for increased comfort and performance. If you are a beginner this is not that important (though getting boots from a bootfitter is), but if you are an advanced-expert skier it will make a big difference.
>Why is it so important to go to a bootfitter?/I went to a bootfitter and still have a problem, what's wrong?

>What bindings should I get?
The most important things to consider with bindings are DIN range and brake width. Your DIN should be around the middle of your binding's DIN range. For example, if you ski with a DIN of 7, a 4-12 binding would be good for you. A 1-7 or a 7-16 would be bad. If you don't know your DIN, look up a DIN chart.
The brake width should be approximately equal to the waist of the ski. It's better for the brake to be a little smaller than a little bigger (ski shop techs can bend the brakes when they mount the bindings), but if you go more than 7mm or so smaller the brakes might not fit well. Going up to about 10mm wider on the brakes is alright too as long as you don't carve really aggressively.
