Posted June 23, 2011 Btw, trampolining is not normally done in tiger pants, this was simply a special occasion You lost a bet... or you were trying to win one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 23, 2011 Or that 'trampolining' was a word. We had some fun with that last time Gizmo posted a trampolining picture. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 23, 2011 But no jokes about trampolining not being a real sport? For shame. Though I suppose he's probably heard them all by now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 23, 2011 I had no idea that trampolining was a sport. Or that 'trampolining' was a word. Last year at a uni sports thing we got interviewed for a local paper. The quote they ran with was "Trampolining is definitely a real sport. It's in the olympics and everything" You lost a bet... or you were trying to win one? It was a student competition in Dublin, and all the Scottish lads decided to get ourselves noticed. I'm not entirely sure why... Anybody who ever gets a chance to try it, do it! Alot of universities have teams that you're free to wander in to and give it a go. The student circuit is awesome fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 23, 2011 Daft really? Pulled up socks with shorts/ rolled up jeans? No me gusta. The paul frank t-shirt saves it though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 23, 2011 This is my favourite picture. It feels like it could be a comic book cover. ALSO, before I saw these photos I'd say 3/4 lengths / cut-offs were a faux pas, but you rock them / they look great / I might have to change my opinion. [/ / overload] -- If that's standard trampolining wear, I can definitely get into it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 23, 2011 AAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHA wearing socks on a trampoline... Fag. I kid. It is an impressive shot. But it does look weird, but I've not been versed in the world of trampolining. It's probably a good safety measure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 23, 2011 No socks means sweaty feet on the bed...not good. Also, I go through a pack of socks every month of so...I'd rather have holes in my socks than the bottom of my feet. Standard trampoline attire (for competitions...not everyday.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 23, 2011 I can't help but look at that first picture Gizmo posted and think "...is he wearing crothless shorts?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 23, 2011 I used to trampoline when I was younger... had to give up because of a bad shoulder. Never got too far as I wasn't fearless enough. Could do the standard front somersault, back somersault, back somersault to seat etc. Always preferred back somersaults to fronts. Never quite got to a barani. Always wished I could do a barani ballout and more fancy stuff like that. Watching people do stuff like this is fascinating: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 23, 2011 I want to do trampolining sooooooo much!!! Looks like so much fun. Not sure where I could do it, though. Maybe that can be my sport for next year... This is my favourite picture. It feels like it could be a comic book cover. ALSO, before I saw these photos I'd say 3/4 lengths / cut-offs were a faux pas, but you rock them / they look great / I might have to change my opinion. [/ / overload] A why thank you!! Yeah, 3/4 lengths are a massive bluuurgh. BUT, they work here because of the roll up... And maybe my legs (the one part of my body apart from my hands that I am immensely proud of). Also, I normally wear ankle socks which make them look better. I'm a bit late... but wow daft has impressive leg muscles :3 jealousy and desire all in one! A THAAANK YOU!!! It's the cycling. Although I used to do a lot of sprinting so they've always been kind of like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 23, 2011 I can't help but look at that first picture Gizmo posted and think "...is he wearing crothless shorts?" I was curious as wo where it was some form of atheletic skirt or just a scarf wrapped aound his package. I want to do trampolining sooooooo much!!! Looks like so much fun. Not sure where I could do it, though. Likewise, but let's not deny it. We'd jump the fuck out of it like it was a bouncy castle. I wanna jump in a bouncy castle now...

Posted June 24, 2011 (edited) Seeing as there's been some pictures of sports, I figure i'd throw some old one's of me in my sporting prime. That's right... Boules Champions 2007 - The pictures are from the final, we played 4 games to get there. My team mate warming me up before the final game - Unfortunately no pictures of the match itself... when we won we got asked to pose for a picture for the local area paper - The moment we were presented the trophy - As you can see the attendance was huge for it - Boules Champions 2007 - Of course when your a champion of Boules, and you mention this in a pub, your kinda a big deal, and women just want to touch you.... My god... my hair in 2007 was big. Edited June 24, 2011 by Murr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 26, 2011 Do iiiiit!! It's at least worth a try! I went again today. My hand still hurt from last time. Can't wait for them to get used to it. Can't find my climbing tape. Heh, definitely considering it. Seems to be rather cheap too. We've been playing beach volley now, and going to do some other sports too, so would be a natural extension to try that out as well at some point Yeah, sports rule and hard!
