minus-squareHanrahan@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down1·1년 전No, you really shouldn’t, aside from spectators. If you’ve decided it’s too unsafe for you, repsect that and take up curling. I am specifically talking about competition. I’d never do cave diving for example, i definitely don’t want others to stop doing it becase i think its unsafe though.
