people wit bad eyesight and wears glasses - 03-21-2004, 10:46 PM

Alrighty~ I'm pretty much a noob (been trying to learn for bout 3 months) but the thing is I wear glasses. Ive been mostly learnin toprock, footwork, swipes, turtles so there haven't been a problem ---- but nowadays I was tryin to learn windmills and found that my glasses get bent wen I lean my head on the floor.

Just wanted some feedback on others that break wit their glasses~ then again.... seems like there aren't many bboys that wear glasses -__- sigh...

yea Ino there's a similar thread but it seemed old and there really didn't seem that much feedback...

clips welcome

Its not the best thing to wear glasses when sessioning. I have hella bad site but I can see the ground when I'm doing windmills ha. Just when you session, take them off, when you're done, put them back on.

dont lean ur head on the floor. glasses are a minor set back, nothing u cant get over. ie./ taking them off before u do mad airflares lol

Dont bite the hand that feeds u, eventually everyone helping u will get annoyed...jesus.

Beginners giving beginners tips without understanding what they are saying is probally one of the worst ways to spread KNOWLEDGE.....which is the key to anything in life.

I wear glasses and I bboy personally I haven't had any problems with bboying while wearing glasses. The main thing I'd worry about is when your doing backhandsprings or trying to do windmills other than that bboy in glasses has been ok for me , plus if I wore contacts my eyes would probably be really iritated cus sometimes sweat gets in my eyes and stuff when I practice. Plus the wierdest thing for me is that if I do handstands, or headstands my glasses stay on.

yaaah... - 03-22-2004, 04:43 AM

hey man, i wore glasses for a couple of years and then went to contacts!.. and as graffitimachina said.. its the best decision .

i found it VERY hard toput on when i went for the trial.. and they were bugging me telling me that i have big eyelashes and you keep blinking when you try to put them in!..LOL
but i didnt give up man... and now, i slot them in 1 second and go!.. and i hardley notice them their.. before i used to feel them (but you get used to them).

and yeh, their great for breakin'.. they dont get inthe way.. and if sweat goes inside your eyes, well... i doubt that will make a diffrence, after all.. the wetter the contact lense the better.

thanx

If the glasses r bothering u, u should take them off while breakin. I'm sure u can see the floor if your gonna fall.

nope... unless you reeely reely wash your eyes...lol

but your not supposed to sleep with contact lenses, otherwise they just dry up and stick to your eyes and they would have to cut a thin piece of your eye out were the contact lense is .. but thats pretty raire... it only happens if you sleep for about 24hrs in them..

i slept a couple of hours, it was fine..

hmm once i wore my contacts for 6 days straight. nothin happened. but yah, w/ the sweat in ur eyes and contacts, if you sweat, it'll probably just go around the contact and it wont irritate your eyes. so yah i think you should get contacts, or you could take the glasses off, cuz the glasses can really hurt if you mess up.
