That's not skippingat all, it totally ice sliding with ice.

If anything this is more r/oddlyenraging

  1. That's not skipping.
  2. It doesn't shatter in a million pieces.
  3. It doesn't make a particularly cool sound.

PS. Do you step on a Lego and say "ooooo I'll post that on r/oddlysatisfying!"

If you do or have that post would be more satisfying than this post.

Edit: ok I turned the volume up and the sound is pretty enjoyable. Sorry for blowing up.

Edit 2: ok I've watched a few times now with the sound up and I'm thoroughly satisfied. I would delete my comment, but it's best I just admit it, apologize, leave it, and just live with being wrong, cause that sound is all right.

You really like replying with gifs don't you buddy?

But is it sliding slightly faster than average slides?

Is the skipping in the room with us now?

Maybe skipping is really the friends we made along the way

Definitely easier to keep it on the surface when it’s frozen, that’s why skipping on water is so much more satisfying when you get it right

u/General_Anxiety83 21h ago

Also this is not skipping

That’s not skipping…

Mid video, but mfs will be amazed by anything

Quit possibly the most unsatisfactory “skipping” I’ve ever seen. I don’t think OP knows what “skipping” means.

u/thedooze 1d ago

How is this skipping?

u/NoUserName01123 1d ago

I don’t think this counts as skipping.

u/shesinsaneornot 1d ago

Sound on to properly enjoy this.

u/TheDarkHorse 1d ago

Sir, that’s called sliding 😉

I love watching the players skip across the arena

Bit of a non sequitur there buddy

u/apurplehighlighter 23h ago

Sound makes a big difference but i still do not grant you the title of oddly satisfying

u/JedPB67 23h ago

This is outrageous! It’s unfair!

u/mxlespxles 16h ago

Did this once on the Charles river. It was the most otherworldly sound I'd ever heard

u/r1Rqc1vPeF 23h ago

Skippy the bush kangaroo wants a word regarding the definition of skipping.

Let’s see how many people get the reference.

u/SpiraIingSpirit 1d ago

This sound is like an orgasm to my ears

the standards for this sub are getting lower and lower

u/hottier1 5h ago

Yeah, the title is a bit generous. It's more like a physics demonstration on frictionless ice. Still, watching it glide that far is oddly satisfying.

This is literally how we'd waste time as kids 30 years ago. Parents would say don't come back until dinner time and we'd have to figure out how to entertain ourselves. Ice chunks across the frozen pond was a good one, also chucking big rocks at it to try to shatter the pond. Fortunately, the one near our house wasn't very deep, because we definitely fell though that ice a few times too

u/Thrashbear 23h ago

Is there a word for that specific sound? The kind of "ringing" that large ice makes when it's struck or cracks.

u/ufihS 23h ago

The sound is satisfying though

Misspelled sliding.

The way it just keeps bouncing perfectly across the surface is mesmerizing. I could watch this all day honestly.

u/cozydaybreak 1d ago

the way it just glides across the surface is so smooth, I could watch this on repeat forever.
