    I threw a tennis ball for the dog this morning, so I know what this guy feels like.

      Thrower spinning shoes are kinda slippery and have circular ‘traction’ lines. But yea they generally wear out pretty quick

    What a weird sport. It’s crazy that there was so much resistance to adding skateboarding in 2020 while this has remained a staple.

    I don’t mean that disparagingly at all. It’s just a weird tradition

      Judging a skateboarder’s performance has too many variables. Throw big rock far is an easy contest to measure and watch.

        Judging a figure skater’s performance has just as many variables! There are other more direct examples but the “controversy” around skateboarding came to mind first
