    I mean maybe

    I think it looks more like you could lift the earth and flip it like a spherical pancake with you big arms

    Last time I did a backflip was like 4 years ago, but I assume I still have it in me?

    Might need practice or a spot for the first try though, I'm a bit fatter now

    Whatever sense of balance and coordination is necessary to do a flip barely exists for me, unfortunately

    My first job was coaching gymnastics/tumbling during the summer, so I'm pretty confident that I could teach anyone capable of jumping ~2 feet in the air how to do a backflip (as long as we had the right floor mats for safety).

    Cause that's all it is, being able to jump, after that it's just "bring your knees to your chest then try and stick your head inside your own ass" and physics does the rest

    Backflips are initially more scary than front flips to learn, but much easier to actually land safely from (cause you can see the ground through the whole landing)

    Never been good at jumping.

    While I've got a lot of general natural athleticism, I'm real hit or miss with a lot of specific things.

    I've got a Subaru Forester because I don't need a fuckoff huge truck but I do need something that will carry my camping gear and kayak. The extra room for passengers on road trips is good too. 4 adults with 4 suitcases/travel bags is a thing that exists. And it doesn't exist well in a small car.


    I'm with juggernaut on trucks though. I'm in North Florida so the road is just flooded with trucks e times the size of my SUV and when they park, out pops a line soccer mom with a Bama Stanley and a salt life shirt. Or a 19 year old dude bro that hasn't gotten that truck near anything dirtier than the Publix parking lot.

    I once ripped from Jenner, just north of Bodega Bay, all the way down to San Simeon in a single very long roller coaster of a day

    Those are very fun roads even (perhaps especially) with the cliffside to the right. Especially on a motorbike, where there's basically just a helmet visor and then infinite Pacific beyond

    Pretty much one of the best drives one could do in that part of the world. Can't even begin to imagine what that must be like on a motorcycle.

    I've always said that if I had the means and skills, I'd learn to ride a motorcycle and then have the whole Pacific Coast Highway shut down so I could cruise it on my lonesome. Motorcycles seem like an incredible amount of fun but I just can't get over the fear of some idiot doing an idiot thing and... Yeah.

    Oh man random memory unlocked. There used to be this incredible Indian restaurant on the south side of the bridge in Jenner. Sizzling Tandoori. We used to road trip up to my buddy's house in sea ranch and grab a giant vat of baingan bharta with a ton of amazing keema naan...

    I love my life in Colorado but there are some things I really miss about costal northern California.

    But otherwise 99.999% no.

    I've never tried on account of fearing what would occur if the answer was no. I used to be able to do a roll backwards from a sitting position though.

    I used to be able to do a kip-up.

    Back in the old days.

    I used to be able to do the worm really well, but when I tried last time I mostly ended up slamming my jaw into the ground repeatedly.

    what's everybody's secret athletic skill?

    I have good hand-eye coordination, despite the glasses, or possibly because of?

    I can catch pretty good, and I am a passable shot

    My hand eye coordination isn't particularly good, but outside of that I tend towards being generally athletically gifted. Not necessarily in shape or particularly strong, but I have a really good sense of my body and its movements, so I tend to be able to make it do new things without a whole lot of training. Anything that wants deep specificity or practice is a no-go, but any time someone brings out the weird lawn game they got from their European relatives I am all in.

    I sleep fairly well most nights. I do have a problem with waking up and my brain being mostly useless, though. I don't think it's fully online until 8a at the earliest and I get up at 4a.

    Which blows btw. I was not built for these hours. I seriously wish I had the working hours of my cat. 1a to 3a and just a whole lot of sleeping or staring out the window in between.

    I miss when my job had three shifts and I worked evenings. 3pm-11pm was just fucking perfect for me. I could wake up without an alarm, I could run errands in the morning if I wanted, I could stay up after work and do stuff if I wanted.

    Now I work 7am-7pm and I go to bed anywhere from 8-10pm just to wake up at 3:50am. I get up so early because I don't like to rush to get ready for work, and sometimes I go to the gym before work. So far this "attempting to catch up on sleep" thing is pretty nice, I woke up at 8am today and laid down from 12-2pm (didn't exactly nap but it was still restful). Gonna make dinner soon and try to go to sleep at 8pm with the help of a CBD gummy. Work drug tests us so I can't do weed gummies, but in Texas the CBD gummies have to contain less than 0.3% THC so hopefully that won't show up if I get tested any time soon.
