Title: Is freestyle fun?
Post by: L_I_S on May 09, 2011, 04:47: AM
Yes, I know freestyle can be about competitions and people can use fun as an excuse not to train as hard and all that. Let's put all that aside for now.

I was just wondering if you feel that freestyle is fun?

I enjoy it, i think it can be frustrating though lol.

*Just nailed my first tatw, so happy :)

after 4,5 years of being in the business, I must say that sometimes it has no fun in it. It gave me way more fun in the first year. But still, there are times when it's really entertaining, waiting for this moments keeps me in this

i only train when i feel like to, but not managing to do a trick gets frustrating after a while.
i also have only one freestyler in my area, and i meet him very rarely, but everytime i look so much forward to meeting him, and last time it was so fun and i was so motivated that i pulled of almost all good tricks/combos i ever managed, like beck htatw, ltatw, atw ahtatw combo, tatw htatw amatw, tatw taatw nt combo and even my first tatw matw nt...

i might not be very good, but i can't imagine having fun training two hours or more every day.

Right now, for me, since I got fucking much problems with my knees flexability. Am I feeling no fun anymore to try for lowers, but even though, I can train uppers and sitdowns, and that! I must say is really fun! right now! :D But ofc, I hope I can train up my lowers anyhow but it'll be hard
but as everyone is saying "Never Give Up"

fun isn't a word i would ever use to describe freestyle, so no in answer to your question no freestyle is not fun (for me).

but...i can't think of anything more satisfying/rewarding than freestyle. When you land a trick/combo you've been training for its undescribable. anybody who has reached one of the milestones in fs will know what im talking about (your first proper nt, your first patw etc).

So when i compare the amount of training time vs the amount of satisfaction, is it worth it? YES YES YES

i have the same years in freestyle ass blazej and i´ve been in situations were my level picks up and then something happens or my interest isn't the same but from all those years i  know that freestyle for me is beyond a sport and is beyond of having fun do in it, is the only thing that make´s me relax and realise  stress, and I will keep on freestyling in till the day I´l die,  and the good part is that im taking my lowers to the next level.

fs definitely puts a smile on my face. i have never taken it seriously, but i have still enjoyed it to the fullest. I also like to do it right before i really need to concentrate.. like an exam! believe it or not / IT HELPS!

The answer is yes, freestyle is fun. The part where you train hard to land a very hardcore combo can actually be more satisfying than just fun, I agree with Ethan on that one. But there is so many other things with freestyle that is fun - like fs meetings, show off and other things. So it's FUN!

Edit:
The most fun part with freestyle sometimes can be to watch other freestyle videos on youtube with your friends achievements :)

Freestyle use to be fun when i started, now not so fun. It something i play occasionally when life is hard and i need a break, not soo much fun but gives me something to concentrate on. I do enjoy it though and hope 1 day maybe i will find it as fun as when i first started

it is really hard work once you start taking it seriously (i wouldnt know i havent taken it seriously until these few months) but in general working towards something you like and are interested is fun even if it isnt easy.

If I put my mind to something while im training eg: LP. I tend to be more focused and determind and when I feel full control over the ball I tend to want to push myself further mentally and  physically. and become less frustrated.
