Judo on trampoline

I see you know your judo well.

Did you catch the gold match at -73? Freaking brilliant. Heydarov just nailed it.

Very nicely done! You’ve captured the movement well.

Nice. Also looks like the new Break Dancing. 😉

I like skeleton a lot and enjoy watching the shooting and archery competitions. Speed skating is probably up there too.

I avoid the Olympics or “broadcast competition” in general. It reminds me of how I was the one picked last in gym class, while being forced into a “team” that I didn’t want anything to do with, and team “mates” bullying and menacing me for not trying hard enough. I saw that it was very good for developing team spirit, if you’re part of it.

But even as a spectator, I don’t see the interest in watching other people compete. I cycle a bit, about 600/700 km a month, and social media and people around me think that I care about competitions like Tour de France and Giro that, but I have no interest in watching which cyclist is going to be “the best” at competing, sponsored by oil corporations.

Competitive sports on TV/streams are like religion. It’s all a question of show, money, and people wanting to fit in by “picking a team/favorite”.

The art caught my eye but I can’t say I care about the subject.

Probably wrestling and judo. I wish that MMA, sumo, sambo, bjj, sanda, muay Thai or arm wrestling would get added.
