What are YOUR hobbies? (Sports is meant here!)

[xxdingo93xx]

Hai thar guys,

I was just curious what kind of sports you guys do. I think behind every (well, let's say most ) HWS-member there is a person who has some kind of hobby aside sitting in front of the computer.

What kind of sports do you do? Why do you do them? Probably got videos or pictures of you being busy with that hobby? Share them with us!!

Personally, I have 3 different hobbies:
- Taekwondo
- Dancing (Hip Hop/Dance4Fans/Videoclipdancing)
- Breakdance

I started Taekwondo February 2002. Since then, it became a part of me. Now quitting it is like ripping my heart apart :/ (wow, that's a brutal metaphor )
I started Dancing November 2005. I wasn't very good at the beginning but every day without dancing is a wasted day for me now I'm in a crew with 12 other guys (10 girls, 2 boys). We participate at local tournaments regularly, we're not very good yet but we become better with every tournament
Can't say much about the Breakdance I started it January this year. I'm really not good at it right now, but it's damn hard though

Here are 2 videos I want to show you...

from Taekwondo ... it's a simulation of a barfight, just for fun (from 2008)

from Dancing ... it's our choreography from 2009. This tournament was in November 2009, we're working on a new choreography right now. (We made the 8th place in this vid )

Well, I do...

• Badminton - my school trained me from elementary until now
• Table Tennis - same as above
• Tennis - I just get started last year
• Basketball - not really, sometimes :/

Only sports are allowed, and why did you put hobbies in the title :/

[Piwlady]

Gym. I love to pump iron :3

 

[BlinkforFear]

I did taekwondo, I got my first degree black belt and i quit. And all i can say is that video is a joke for taekwondo
My hobbies are...
Cross country
Track
Watching other sports, like basketball, football (or as Europeans call it... handegg)
And trying to find any good modern music in this age of shity auto-tuned music.

Yup. It was meant to be a joke

What exactly do you mean with athletics?

 

[Megafyr]

I dance. That's it really. : o During the summer I might occasionally train keep ups though.

well I guess we two are probably the only dancers specified on hiphop here on hive ...
are you doing any other sort of dancing besides cwalk?

 

[Darkness-4ever]

I play poker sometimes, other than that... nope nothing.

So that was you who made Ralle do that poker advertising! *Grabs a chainsaw with "Darkness" wroten on it*
Anyway I do boxing.

 

[MortAr]

Soccer mostly and sometimes Volleyball.

 

[Wraithling]

I like table tennis, mostly because it is so convenient to play. All you need are the table tennis bat & balls, then put a couple of tables together, attach a makeshift net and you're set!

Having a partner is of course better, but there's still the alternative of practicing against the wall

 

[The Reborn Devil]

I did Karate for 6 years.
Now I just do programming and moderating.

[dead-man-walking]

Running (Sad But True. When I Return From The Mosque To My House, I Run Like Crazy).

 

[Joe-black-5]

was a swimmer/football player (the one that requires a foot) tennis table/normal Tennis
but now >_> ... my Hobby is sleeping all the time
Hakuna matata.

 

[Tank-Commander]

Lemme see, I play rugby, football, I sprint (with 1 lung working at 50% means long distance is a no no), hurdles (100m?) I don't do many laps of the astroturf (Warm up) at school otherwise I'm out of breath b4 the actual lesson begins.

fullback for rugby (don't know if I got that right)
1 man defense in fottball (Basically, I'm the only one)

Apparently I play 'too rough' in fottball, but I've never got a red card, got plenty of yellows but thats differant.

I think my closest to a red card was when I slide tackled on soaked astroturf (rainy day and I had no grip left on my trainers) I took out 2 people in one, however I got the football first, then crashed into/knocked over the player with the ball then he fell onto the person he was gonna past too, taking one of them out the game from injury - great match.

Karate is a fail, I was having Karate for like 4 years and I didn't learned anything, I can tell you its good you gave up with that junk.

 

[Joe-black-5]

I sense fail teacher who was laughing at you while taking your money

 

[Tleno]

Nope. Actually he was one of Lithuanian most famous Karate teachers. Well of course maybe its possible that I was just too lazy or untalented for Karate, but I'll better stick with the version his teaching skills suck.

Weeell ... I taught myself Taekwondo, too. More or less. I learned the technics by the teacher but I taught myself the perfection of everything on it. Strong kicks and such ... it's all a matter of how much interest you have for that sport

 

[Dr. Boom]

So my hobby is planting small bomb ombs =) - it's more useful as karate and Taekwondo together

 

[Deleted member 157129]

Mmh, well I did play a lot of soccer in my youth, also a bit of karate (2-3 years if I am not mistaken). Now I just do mountain biking, regular biking and moshing.

Also, thread title is highly misleading. Although sports are hobbies, there are a lot of hobbies that are not sports.

 

[Coolty44]

I play hockey, always have and always will. I'm also sounding like a unique in this thread too

 

[The_wand_mirror]

What exactly do you mean with athletics?

Exactly what im saying? It's not like you get to pick a thing you want to do and then practice that all the time...

 

[Azndragon]

Wushu, Kung Fu and Kick Boxing.
Wushu & Kickboxing I've done for around a year

We must spar sometime

Lol

Oh, biking... ^^
I even forgot about how I love biking for like 5 months... curse you cold season...

Snow and ice is not a problem really, just get spiked tires. Eh well, it's no use off-road in the winter though.

 

[FrIkY]

Ah you know, usual stuff... like breathing, walking, talking, sleeping, eating, thinking, drinking and few other.

[mato2]

I recently started MMA training, and i really like weight lifting.

I don't really do much sport, I do dog walking. What is the definition of 'sport' anyway? Some people say it is something active, while others include chess as it is copetitive.

Thing is though, I am the kind of nutter that talks to their dog, so I start saying; 'Thats it, nearly at your granny's! Yes we are!' and get strange looks from people.

 

[Tank-Commander]

I always talk to my pets, put they're not the ones you walkaround town with. my fav lines are 'Stop biting my arm!' 'vicious creature' and 'look! it's <enter persons name>! go eat them!' Oddly enough the latter sentance tends to work.

I wouldn't count chess as a sport, otherwise I'd also count scrabble as a sport, but I do play them when the power goes out and we light a room with lots of candels - It has a very traditional feel to sit in the dark with a candle on a table playing chess nearby.

Officialy sport is defined as something which trains your mind or body. But in my opinion sport is only physical .

 

[Total_Warrior]

I snowboard a lot during the winter, I like to work out every once in a while at the gym with my dad(parents are divorced and my dad rents a conduminum because of no agreement with my mom so that is how I spend time with him), I also hope to do boxing one day.

 

[warman45]

i desighn gas turbine engines and airframes for low orbit aircraft. ya not joking. if you REALLY want i can tell you all the stages of a turbojet as we'll as a few optional stages (high pressure compressor) as well as basic jet theory.

 

[Tank-Commander]

what does building aircraft have to do with sport? (unless it was building racing aircraft)
Anyway, I wish it were possible to do proper snowboarding on real snow in England, but I guess all we have is the articificals.
I dunno why but snowboarding has always appealed to me yet I know I'm useless at it

 

[kasame]
