Can people list how riding on twin tips is different (in terms of carving, etc.)

I'm thinking of buying some twin tips cause i reallyl wanna get into terrain parks, but still want to be able to do blacks

A friend of mine said it was a pussy martial art (he has been an international TKD champion, and is experienced in other martial arts as well) and he isn't the type of a$$hole who says pussy and thinks he's a badass. I asked him why and he said to explain he'd have to write a novella. Are there any reasons why Eagle Claw Kung Fu is so bad? I was thinking of picking it up...

Thanks!

I've been hearing some stories that airsplat is horrible...is this true? Because i was thinking of buying a gun from them soon...

http://www.airsplat.com/Items/ERM-BI-SPR5281M.htm

is this a good airsoft gun ***for its price***? I'm new to airsoft, but want a reliable gun that's accurate and relatively good. My team captain recommended this gun...what do you guys think???

if you think you have a better gun, please list the link, but only from airsplat.com please

I've seen the last samurai, and in fact I did like it. Any other good (preferably recent) samurai movies?

-thanks!

I've seen Saving Private Ryan, Letters from Iwo Jima, Platoon, and probably a couple others that I can't remember right now. However, I didn't like Letters from Iwo Jima.

also, i saw some movie dubbed to english about two asian (korean i think) brothers who are separated due to a war. if you know the name of the movie i'd appreciate that too!!

Please list any good war movies!!!

-thanks!

it is my opinion, that it isn't for us to decide whether we should be in iraq or not

unless you're in the service, or living in iraq, you don't feel the effects. you aren't risking your life on a daily basis. you don't REALLY know what's going on, and whether people appreciate it. you only hear the biased reports from news stations and newspapers. yes, a family member may die, and you do feel the emotional pain. I am saddened for you, yet there is a quote I'd like to share..."sacrifices must be made for the greater good". i'm not trying to be cold blooded, but think about it...in EVERY case of something good happening, there is something bad happening as well.

Therefore, it is my opinion that to truly decide whether the war should continue, a vote should be taken by the soldiers and the people feeling the effects in the middle east.

does anyone agree with this?

What tricks can you do on a sit down pwc?

please explain them!

thanks!

please list some. all I find are BJJ schools when I look online.

thanks!

my science teacher proposed something...confusing

he almost said there's no such thing as proof

it went something like this...

"prove to me there is a desk here"

"i can see it"

"how does that prove it's here?"

"you're touching it"

"how does that prove it's here?"

i need a good definition of proof, because my teacher has a point. Proof seems to only be limited to the mindset we have that "if i can see it, i'll believe it". what is the actual scientific definition?

If God is all mighty and powerful, could He create a rock He couldn't lift???

Oh and btw, God isn't perfect. It's impossible to be perfect. To be perfect, you must be perfect at imperfections. Yet, if you're imperfect then you can't be perfect. Do you think that my logic is reasonable? Like, I believe that it's possible to be perfect in a certain aspect...but not perfect in every way.

I need one, but only seem to find BJJ dojos when I look online.

help please?

I heard there are no Japanese Jujitsu tournaments because unlike BJJ, it was made to kill, not to be a sport. Is this actually true?

I know, I've been posting a lot of them. thanks for all the replies!

ok this one is, between tae kwon do and jujitsu, which will fare better in a real fight against someone who doesn't know martial arts?

keep in mind i have a smaller body type

Let me lay down some facts...

A) I'm 5'10"-5'11" tall

B) I weigh 120 lbs but plan on gaining more, realistically about 10 lbs over the summer

C) I'm half Japanese, so naturally I have a smaller body type than other people who are 5'10"

D) I'm a guy (I'm not sexist, but sometimes sex can matter in things)

E) I'm skinny, but have a higher than average speed (say on a 1-10 scale, 5 being the average, I'm a 7)

I'm going to take a martial art, and I'm pretty sure it's going to be either jujitsu, judo, or tae kwon do. Taking into consideration what I said above, which martial art would be the best for me, and why? I would REALLY appreciate it if you went to some degree of detail why. Please list how you know what you do, even if it's something like "i have a friend who does (martial art)". I appreciate ALL answers.

In addition, if there were three exact copies of me (weight, height, speed, senses, etc. are all equal), and they all had to fight, who would the winner be and why? This would be in 1v1 fights, NOT 1v1v1.

LASTLY, if there are any superior martial arts please tell me. I realize it is the person who determines how good the martial art is, but the style or tactics of one could be better than the other (I assume).

Once again, thanks a ton for taking the time to read and answer the question!!!!

ok for the war the US is in now, i'm confused on something...

some people say Bush went to war without consulting congress, yet can he even declare war on the taliban? can't you only declare war on other countries? also, was it illegal for him not to consult congress anyways?

thanks, i really appreciate it

I went to play airsoft today, but whenever i found myself in range with my gun, I'd get hit. I really need some help with the game. give me your best tips! =)

-thanks, i appreciate it a ton

oh and btw, i wasn't playing backyard airsoft, i went to a field and all that. not super competitive, but mildly serious.

What are the best Tae Kwon Do dojos in Sacramento, CA?

-thanks

I'm seriously thinking of taking a martial art. Being Japanese, I naturally want to take the Japanese version, but how much/HOW do they differ? Please explain.

In addition, I've been looking at videos on youtube. So far it seems I only see videos of demonstrations....would jujitsu actually work in a real fight? Dumb question, I know it would work...but how well???

thanks! i'd really appreciate experts commenting on this!

I'm thinking of learning a martial art, and since I'm half Japanese I thought it'd be cool to learn a martial art from my heritage. What's the most effective one? Also, which has the most competitions generally available? I know that there generally sin't one martial art that can do it all, but I am looking for the one which is the best if you had to pick one.

please list your sources! I would really prefer answers from people with long term personal experience only! thanks a ton! =D
