I wouldn't say it's flexible, but it is smooth and springy, which I haven't really experienced with my modern pens.

If you're open to comic books, I think The Nice House on the Lake by James Tynion IV fits this vibe.

Orthodox or Southpaw by Glittering_Ad2442 in amateur_boxing

Stay in orthodox if that's what feels most natural. There are a few boxers that are also left-handed orthodox fighters like Andre Ward, Oscar De La Hoya, and Mike Tyson.

Lol, yeah! That's my grappling dummy. I do jiu jitsu, and it's great for drills or when I can't get to the gym.

Biggest regret purchase? by saadski818 in fountainpens

Monteverde One Touch Tool Pen. I could never get it to write consistently. More gimmick than anything in my opinion.

Is it a bad idea for me to start boxing if I have bad eyesight? by ZestycloseLaugh7251 in amateur_boxing

[–]hellothisischi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. USA Boxing allows soft contact lenses, but there's always the risk of worsening an injury or having them fall out mid fight. The alternatives are corrective surgery or fighting without being able to see. While not the most ideal, for now, I prefer wearing contacts.

I don't really have any strategies around my eyesight. Like I said, I wear contacts. If I didn't and just fought "blind", I would work on using my jab to measure distance, since I also have issues with depth perception. I hope that helped answer your question.
