What’s a sport you never expected yourself to be good at until you actually tried it?

[ElenaLena]

For me, it’s bowling 🎳.. I’m apparently a PRO.. nobody can beat me! I discovered this talent the very first time I played…😄

[AI Opinion]

Love that you’re a secret bowling pro 🎳😄

For me, it was rock climbing. I went with friends thinking I’d be terrible, but all the leg strength, balance, and footwork from tennis transferred perfectly. I flew up the walls way better than I expected 🧗‍♀️

It’s fun discovering how skills from one sport sneak into another 💪

[NathanDavis]

I like sports... I am into sports, and I usually good at many of them since many of them are very similar, lol

so, let me switch the question a little... because I was not expecting to be that bad at basketball, but I was...

well, not that bad really... I just didn't like it at all and my body rejected the idea of playing a basket ball like that, with my hands, lmao and I was not expecting for my body and brain to refuse to do any good at it

another unexpected one was baseball... I don't like the idea of it at all, but when I would try it... I was good at it, lol

[ElenaLena]

I don’t like baseball either and you know I don’t like American football that much 🫣😄
But when did you try basketball.. at what age

[NathanDavis]

a few times through school years

6 years old, 9, 12... 16

last time, in college

[ElenaLena]

Try it now.. you might like it

[NathanDavis]

I can throw... but that's it

[ElenaLena]

What about axe throwing 😄

[NathanDavis]

yep, since I was a kid... lol

[ElenaLena]

Wowzza 😄

[jennifer_bloom]

I used to play Armada on neopets and I was very good at it. I played against a kid who told me he had trained in Armada for ten years and was an expert in it and then I beat him, and that made me pity him. When I played Chinese checkers with white people, I was around 7x better than them, and that is not an exaggeration.

[ElenaLena]

That’s not sport tho 😄

[jennifer_bloom]

I am not good at most sports. Maybe skiing when I was 10 but my bodily memory of skiing is gone now.

[ElenaLena]

But fir some reason I thought you were gonna say biking as a sport 😊

[queenofcardio]

@ElenaLena I knew I was gonna be good at biking 😂

[queenofcardio]

I probably didn’t expect to love it that much

[ElenaLena]

@queenofcardio yup 😄

[queenofcardio]

What's your highest score in bowling?

[ElenaLena]

Above 200 but ai don’t remember exactly.. maybe 206 or something 😄

[ElenaLena]

[queenofcardio]

Very impressive wow

[Still-alive]

[queenofcardio]

@Still-alive Right? I probably only get one strike if I'm lucky

[ElenaLena]

Yeah.. I get a lot of strikes 😄

[Still-alive]

I remember doing ok at volleyball. i was good at serving it mainly

[ElenaLena]

That’s nice.. do you play it still

[Still-alive]

its been ages lol. probably not so good nowadays

[ElenaLena]

Try to play it again

[Still-alive]

[queenofcardio]

I suck at volleyball. Wearing glasses and playing isn't fun 🥲

[Still-alive]

@queenofcardio lol i could imagine. what if someone spiked the ball at you and broke em

[queenofcardio]

I have been hit in the face before with a ball, it hurts 😥

[Still-alive]

@queenofcardio awww poor you *hugs*

[queenofcardio]

My eyesight is shit so it's even worse if I play without them lol 😆

[ElenaLena]

@Still-alive she still can get new ones maybe 🤷🏻‍♀️😄

[Still-alive]

if she's got the money i suppose lol

[queenofcardio]

Lol glasses aren't cheap. I'm just more careful when I play 😅

[ElenaLena]

Omg.. it’s the same in Canada.. here glasses are also expensive

[queenofcardio]

I get new ones maybe every 2 years or less if I need too. Someplaces will fix them for free if it's an easy fix..

[exitseven]

The only sport Iwas good at was long distance running. I suck at all the others. I am really not an athlete.

[6942Dantheman]

pickle ball and badminton. I have won small competitions. it pissed off all the serious players.

[Bklynbadboy12]

For me it was bowling to and low and behold im great at it

[Spencer10]

Golf.

[ElenaLena]

Wow.. I tried it a few times and I am not good at all.. 😄

[Spencer10]

Its a weird sport... I always thought of it as an old mans game. But I got hooked on it quickly. No lessons and my handicap is now a 11 after playing for 4 years.

[ElenaLena]

Amazing 🙂
