Why do people laugh when i do ice skating ???

Question

When I go ice skating and do tricks people always laugh at me are they jealous ??? or should i stop doing tricks to stop them laughing ???

Answer 1

people are going to laugh no matter what you do.

it's THEIR problem that they laugh at you, you shouldn't stop doing tricks because of some dumb asses.

i doubt its because they're jealous...

some people are just "like" that. they like to be stupid.

or they could be jealous, but you really shouldn't think too much of it. and i know its hard not to <_< but just try to forget about it and do what you want to do.

Answer 2

Lol ignore them like we do

Answer 3

Depends. If your doing axels, lutzs or doubles/triples, they are probably jealous. If your doing some sweet spins, they are probably jealous. I had friends that were jealous of me cause i could skate backwards! So it really depends.

If they are laughing at you doing swizzles or bunny hops or something of that nature (ballet jumps, waltz jumps etc) or even worse, backwards wiggles, its because they think its hilarious. If you think your pretty good and your just swizzling around the ice, they are probably laughing at you because your not as good as they expected. When people hear skater,  they think "omg he can do a triple axel" and if you cant, they think your a joke.

Dont stop doing it, but tone it down around friends. If your in a public session, but friends arent there, go for it, you can practice!

Answer 4

idk, send a pic, maybe then i could comment

Answer 5

peeps will laugh no matter what just ignore them and you will practice alot so just ignore it

Answer 6

What kind of tricks are you doing?

If you're having fun, who cares what others think.  As long as you and they aren't getting hurt, enjoy yourself.  Maybe take a few lessons to perfect what you're doing and you'll shut them up!

Answer 7

Some people!!

Who cares about them your the one who can skate! Not them!! I would say theyre jealous.

If its a small laugh it could be a 'good' laugh? Cuz sometimes I do that.

Or mabey you staick your hands out and look so focused its funny (only look like that in lessons)

Anyway, I wouldnt worry about it, hope they fall on their butt and cry with pain!! lol

Happy skating!
