Sick Spot Syndrome, or SSS is the feeling of being overwhelmed by the large volume of opportunities scattered throughout a spot, leaving you feeling stuck and not knowing where to start. Symptoms may be feeling tired, headaches, blissful sadness...

[@TZPK]

Seems true! Thanks for the detailed explanation my guy!👌

[@calen_chan]

When you think you're just not a creative enough athlete, then realize you actually have a condition called SSS. Wow it all makes sense now. 😱😂

[@TZPK]

That’s very true and important to know!😉. Never think you’re not worth it! You’re great the way you are!

[@maxbevers6369]

Definitely a thing in skateboarding too where a spot has already been “killed” so doing any lesser trick feels pointless.

[@TZPK]

Awe man! I know how you feel bro! What a pain!😩

[@Worldymania]

I think it depends on the level of skateboarding. At the super end level yeah there they wanna do the NBD at a spot, but on the level i was skating, that went up to 14 stair rail, i couldnt care less what someone else did at a spot, i just did what i had in my bag and it was ultimate fullfilling :)

[@TZPK]

Anyone who struggles from SSS I feel ya! But remember! Pull through and we’ll keep progressing! Parkour Hard, Love the vibe!😎🤘

[@JamessprinkleRsuknight]

The last time I've heard a couple of Germans talk about a couple of S it didn't end well

[@alfscott11]

You should do a video about LMS - we talk about it all the time and I actually don’t even know what it stands for. It’s where you have a move you want to do in the back of your mind, and when you go to do a prep or an easier move, that other thing comes out. Example: you want to try double flyaway for the first time outside, and you think lemme just do a flyaway first, and you do double accidentally. James has had it so strong that he went for a round off of full that was supposed to be a prep for full in, and he LMSed a double full and over flipped it to his back and got a concussion. I once did triple fly away accidentally, and I did my first triple cast away into water the other day on accident

[@alfscott11]

Usually it just helps you achieve scary goals by accidentally committing but it actually can make it sketchy to prep things outside

[@TZPK]

Yeah! That’s a good idea! Would be fun!!

[@oppoaction]

I think SSS happens because a different spot doesn’t fit the style of parkour you’re used to. It’s super difficult to change your style on the spot like that so it usually results to you not doing anything and feeling demotivated.

[@TZPK]

I get that! That’s a good theory! I believe it to a certain extent too! Just it’s difficult but good to tru new things!

[@tanmayshekhawat]

My condition is far deadlier. It is called NSS. You guessed it. It starts with a NO

[@TZPK]

I know! It’s being played as a joke but I believe it is a real thing!

[@Worldymania]

WOW! The past 6 years i suffered from: Morbus Crohn, leaky gut, chronical stomache over-acid-ing?, Azidose (sour blood), another blood illness, liver- & thyroid-disfunction, gluten-intollerance, fructose-intollerance, and couple of other things, that left me with starving of a fictious corn diet, literally only corn and water, that was it for years. All in all: One more tiny thing and i would have died. SO THANK GOD I AM LIVING IN COLOGNE WHERE I CAN NEVER GET SSS! :D But in case someone knows some SSS Spots in Cologne, you can tell me, i will only die of happyness to be at some spot where i can actually do my first parkour lines, and learn some things and progress. Thanks :)

[@onreact]

Thank you for spreading awareness of mental health in parkour in general and 3S or sick spot syndrome in particular. It's a serious issue and can lead to a lot of frustration. One of the ways to deal with it is to never train at sick spots (which are like Disney Land for parkour) and just to embrace opportunities that arise everywhere in your area. Parkour is the discipline of overcoming obstacles in your path not of staying in one place and jumping back and forth all the time.

[@TZPK]

Exactly! Very well said my friend! I believe it is important to stick to that!👌

[@willacheson5682]

I went to Imax one time and remember standing there just thinking "well tf do i start now"

[@TZPK]

I know the feeling! Taking in a big new spot is exciting but often very hesitant! You’re not alone!

[@davidfreel1451]

UMTS is a similar problem for improvising musicians. Unintegrated Music Theory Syndrome, it's when soemeone wants to play Jazz but lacks to confidence to use their ears, online they find tools to seel them Theory Learning Packages of dubious usefuleness and 'We're off' ten years later not one single interesting solo has been played and no tunes learned properly. It also related to SLND (Stolen Lick NonSequitur Driveling) and is a specific case of the general malady, BHOS (buying horsesh1t online syndreom). The answer is always humble practice, as with SSS.

[@justinbergemann9086]

Haha, what a keeper. Brilliant.

[@TZPK]

No kidding right? They’re able to make something out of anything!

[@robbegeusens]

I know its a joke but honestly tho, i really struggle with this

[@TZPK]

It really isn’t a joke! I believe it’s a true thing bro!

[@hyorinn_]

I have the same kind of syndrome but with the moves and tricks, there's too many I want to master idk where to start and it can end up not mastering any of them. An advise if you're also in that situation : dedicate a number of hours / days / weeks / training session to master 1 move in particular before moving on to another.

[@TheJasonPaul]

Hey man! I think one good exercise could be to organize a skill tree and think about which moves could benefit other moves. For example: you might want to learn corks and b-twists. For most people b-twists are easier. So if you learn b-twist first and don’t train corks at all, you can learn cork faster later on. It can also be a problem for your muscle memory, if you practice moves that are too similar. You could confuse the techniques. That way you can master one at a time and they will benefit you later on. Divide and conquer 😁

[@hyorinn_]

@@TheJasonPaul those are some wise advises ! I couldn't agree more with you, my cork has never been better than at the time I were also working on my twists. But working my cheat gainer kinda messed up with my cork 😂

[@TZPK]

That’s a good way to look at it! I have a similar thing but take it one or two tricks at a time and make sure to get them GOOD before you move on! Good advice Sacha!

[@TZPK]

@@hyorinn_ always a pain! Similar setup but tricks take a different twist that can be mixed up between the two easy!
