ENZED UIM 2016 Jetsprint WORLDS ACTION

BSR says...

Slalom: a timed race (as on skis or in an automobile or kayak) over a winding or zigzag course past a series of flags or markers broadly : movement over a zigzag route.

Closed loop zigzag?

So, at 3:40---what precisely is the course? It's not an oval, it's not a figure 8--what is it?

man goes insane against a couple of skaters

lucky760 says...

They were probably slaloming down the winding hilly public road where they're endangering themselves but more importantly potentially putting others at risk by drivers a) running them over or b) swerving to avoid running them over.

They are dipshits for doing that, but them aside, sure that guy has a reason to be pissed at their stupidity, but he clearly strapped on a jet pack and flew far the fuck off the handle a long, long time ago. He needs to seek some help with rage control management.

Skater punched by kid's mom

Ryjkyj says...

OK, OK... I know I'm talking to a person who can't see a kid's head hit the ground in a video where a kid's head clearly hits the ground but please do me one favor:

Look at the park layout from google maps that Eric posted above. Really zoom in and get a good look. What I see is a skate park on the left with some soccer fields further on and a parking lot on the right. In between, there's a narrow pathway leading from one part of the park to the other. That's why we see all those people walking through there in the video. They're not walking through the skate park, they're walking along a path.

Now, by your rational, this guy is allowed to skate wherever he wants in this park with no responsibility for running into anyone who happens to be walking through(since a toddler runs at about a normal person's walking speed, maybe a little faster). So I'm curious, where do you draw the line? Is this guy literally allowed to rail slide up the play equipment? Slalom between the swings? I really want to know where you think the line is. Are you really saying that the only path from one end of this overall park to the other runs right through the skate park portion of it? And everybody that walks through is supposed to expect skaters that aren't watching where they're going?

I only get so specific because a skateboard is a vehicle. You can ride one in many public places and I'm all for that but you bear a responsibility for hitting someone just like you would on a bike or in a car.

And I wasn't saying that the kid was running towards the picnic tables. I was saying that the skater was heading toward them, which it seems you agree with since you said the kid was running away from them. (BTW: Where do you get the idea that this kid "barrels out from behind an object?" What object?)

What it looks like to me is that this kid and his mom were coming from the north end, maybe the kid gets excited running to the play equipment on the south end when a guy, skating down the middle of the only path through the park, runs right fucking into him with a skateboard.

And the first reaction everyone has is to blame the kid and his mom? For running down a path through a park?

Live and Let Drive - retraces C'etait un Rendezvous

zebishop jokingly says...

This video is a fake (not lelouch's, this one). You see countless cars changing lanes with their turn signal on. I've been living in Paris for 12 years now, and NOBODY uses it. EVER. Or when it's on, it's been on for 10 minutes at least and the driver is not gonna change lane at all. Also you don't see any scooter or motorcycle slaloming between cars. Fake to the bones.

Alexander Polli: Wingsuit Precision Target Strike

Accidentally crashing and miraculously surviving is not really a precision target strike. There are actually a number of people who have had green stains on their suit or scraped up hands from getting too close to a tree, but none of that was really on purpose.

By the way, the fact that he hit the pole that accurately after a slalom turn is insane. Wingsuits don't turn on a dime, it's more akin to running around on ice with bowling shoes.

The Fastest Fiat You've Ever Seen

mxxcon says...

Take a really cool rally racing and take away all the good parts such as SPEED by putting fucking slalom traffic cones in the middle of straightaways!
They might as well put speed bumps or school-crossing signs there.
