Skiles Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Not like a startled jump. I mean, when was the last time you actually physically leaped straight up into the air? Do you remember what the reason was? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not being sarcastic when I ask this, I'm genuinely curious: Outside of skateboarding, what scenarios do you find yourself in where you're actually jumping?

Outside of skateboarding, I jump up stairs all the time, and over stuff. I probably jumped up onto a short wall and walked to the end, then jumped off again, walking home from work. It's an impulse I commonly indulge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better walk down to the store down the road." And you just parkour over walls and rooftops the whole way for no reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just doing jumping jacks..well actually alternating between exercises like that for cardio.. I'm also very parkour minded, and I even seriously considered trying to be a stuntman in high school.. so quite often honestly. I mean like instead of buying a ladder and the proper tools I jump around with a samurai sword to trim my trees for example/ I'm so sweaty.. uggh./ I've gotten soft though.

The day baseball star Jim Rice saved a little kid's life after he got hit by a foul ball. You were jumping up and down because you couldn't believe what you witnessed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swimmod_Luna Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Friday afternoon cleaning out my old place. I'm 5'1" and there's no other way to see the top shelf in the closets. Standing on tip-toes isn't enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
