filkertomHere are a couple of tricks for you to try when you're bored: the baseball bat ninja move, and the rodeo flip.
My athletic days are, mostly, behind me. I say this because when I was in high school I used to go for the trampolines, both the mini (running launch into a full flip) and the larger one (all kindsa stuff). It'd be nice, but I'd have to lose a lot of weight. Used to be a pretty good hand with a baseball, too. Not batting, though -- one of my first Barney McCloskey League at-bats, I got hit a pitch, and that spooked me for the rest of my lone season. Give me softball, please.
What are your favorite athletic achievements? Recent or dim past.

Date: 2009-06-22 08:59 pm (UTC)I loathed volleyball with a passion at about the same time. My gym teacher's idea of gym class was "girls play volleyball, boys do whatever they want (usually basketball). I had her for two years and watched longingly as the other teacher's class -- boys and girls -- got to play rugby and other fun stuff. My loathing for volleyball - live or televised - didn't die down for 20+ years.
