Hey everyone

Hi everyone, as you could guess my name is David lol. You can call me dave if you want (just no lil dave or lil david....I am short being 5' 6" and know way too many other Davids.......). Been looking around the site for a couple months now and love whats been done with it. I first saw Shawn on TV during the 2007 worlds and have been a fan since then lol.

I'm an American, but more of a fan of sports from other countries, having been doing athletic stuff since I was 7 months old and walking lol. Took gymnastics from 3-5 till I moved from Ohio to Wyoming.....did soccer till i was 12 and since then i've been doing Kara-ho Kempo which is a personally my favorite Martial Arts style( been in Aikido and TKD).

Hey David...WELCOME!
That's sure a nice picture of Shawn you have for your avatar

Hey David welcome to the forums

That is a great picture of Shawn lol and you've done a great range of sports

Hey! =D

I got you beat on shortness. 5'5" Ha. But I'm okay with being short only because Shawn is short, too. I also took gymnastics when I was about three and stopped when I also moved from Ohio to OK. Looks like we got some stuff in common, David. Great to meet you!

Thanks lol. Its always nice to atleast know theres someone shorter than me haha.

hey david welcome dude

Welcome to the forum Dave! haha I beat you all on the shortness.

Actually, that's where I was born. Lived there for a little while, but then we moved to Fairfield. Why?

Thats where I lived 3-5 until I moved back to Wyoming.

Woah! That's crazy!!

for all you know you could of been neighbors

Hahaha I don't think so. Our next door neighbor was an old lady. Maybe on the other side, though....

Well I lived in an apartment, and it would be funny if we happened to have gone to the same place for gymnastics.

Wow... your sports career sounds very similar to mine. I did soccer all my life but the other two, gymnastics (I did for like 5 years or something) and karate (I did that for 2 years, but got bored so I moved to more things). I've done quite a bit of other sports along the way as well. What other sports you like?

I did soccer for 7 years, but it ended up being either karate or that so I decided i'd go with something I know i'm better at lol.

That would be crazy!

I did soccer for 7 years, moved to baseball, then moved to basketball. Now I just play football with some buddies every saturday.

I've never liked basketball and baseball was just boring for me lol. I have 2 classes a week for Karate, but I work out 3 and a half hours a day.
