I'm looking for a martial art where people spar without the primary focus of the art being on competition. From my experience, it seems to be either one or the other.

It's that time of year again, /xs/ is once again playing in a 4chan wide footie tournament. Because if those hipster fucks at /n/ can field a team, so can we.
CPU vs CPU chaos on Pro Evolution soccer is the autism. Will Bam Margera ever get his shit together? Can an imported model of Tony Hawk from THPS3 score a hat trick? Can rollerbladers do ANYTHING right?
Our roster is pretty unchanged since the first team was fielded. Thankfully, more actual random threads appear these days, including a lot more about combat sports. I'll post the roster below. Let it be known if there's any changes you'd like to see, or if you just like things as they are.

Is there a martial art that is 100% defensive?
ONLY blocks and evades.
MAYBE some holds or locks but ideally just defense.

Yeah yeah I get it but still please.

Not like best looking or best at pr, I mean who's the best at fighting in each weight class?
I ask cause I don't see a point in being a fan of a ineffective fighter
Pic unrelated I just think suplex knockouts are brutal, only looking for most effective though
🧵 a stone and a hard place
Anonymous at Wed, 18 Sep 2024 21:19:28 UTC No. 211293
ive recently picked up kickboxing and wrestling after a half a year absence from half a years worth of boxing.
the days I can go to the kickboxing gym we just end up doing nothing but 90% conditioning and 10% drills.
I have still yet to learn how to actually properly throw a leg kick, high kick, knee etc. not to mention the place is fucking full to the brim of people.
the other gym where I could train kickboxing at spars really hard (imo atleast) and the first day I showed up they, although friendly in conversation, were absolute dicks in sparring and would go hard constantly even during regular fucking drills. I left that gym with a splitting headache, the first time something like that has ever happened.
What the fuck do I do?
Look for another gym?

I'm looking to get a replacement airsoft rifle for my broken g3. My field is semi auto only and my g3 busted and fires a 5 round burst on semi mode for some reason
I've been looking to replace it anyway
I'm looking to replace it with this:
https://www.evike.com/products/1184
Is this any good? I picked a relatively high priced one that would go good with my cold war era outfit. (pasgt, m81 woodland etc)
This one's price seems good because I'm guessing that higher price = quality.
There is also the CYMA m16a3 which is lower price but also looks good
Not sure if I should get this one either.. they look identical its weird

🧵 Cave Dive
Anonymous at Wed, 11 Sep 2024 02:15:21 UTC No. 210622
How would you dive this cave (open circuit)?
This small cave entrance sits 70ft below the water and the length of the entire cave is roughly 150yd's.
Due to the overall depth of this cave NDL isn't to much of a concern especially with EAN36
My RMV is about 1cfpm so I figure gas management wise 240cuft brought to the dive with me at 60ft depth id have roughly 60-80min of air time to do the exploration.
Any thoughts how would you go about doing this dive?

>What is the Ultimate Self-Defense Championship?
A bit over a year ago, former Aikidoka YouTuber Rokas Leo set up a tournament with a self-defense "academy" to have himself and five other martial arts YouTubers compete to see who is best at self-defense. It was a hilarious shitshow that nearly crippled one of the contestants, Ramsey Dewey who would later get into an internet spat with the guy behind the academy (Jeff Phillips) and described the entire event as "piss poor" due to poor management, an incoherent and arbitrary scoring system, running on a very limited schedule, and timing events terribly (like having a zombie apocalypse-themed event that didn't influence score in the middle of the entire thing instead of at the end or something) and doing comically dangerous shit like making people fight on a narrow bridge a good 30ft above the ground.
Somehow, he kickstarted a second one, which features even less martial arts YouTubers.
