im a heal to pad walker myself but i have known and seen people who are pad walkers.if you ever have the time,like say your at the mall sitting and eating lunch or at a park take notice of how people walk.pad walkers will have a little more bounce to their step ,their pads hit the ground before the...

very true in some respects. At low speed (normal walking speed) walking on the balls of the feet can cause some balance issues. But most people that have been walking that way Like I have for over 40+ years tend to learn "how to balance" usually very young. Thus the ones with balance issue...

If you watch MMA or boxing matches and even kick boxing matches, you'll see most of then are pad walkers also. And they are the ones that move very quickly around the ring. Outside of the ring most people that walk on the balls of their feet almost glide as they walk and cover ground quicker than mo...

I wish someone would post a youtube video of a normal person walking (not an olympic sprinter) on the balls of their feet and doing day to day activities. Either I'm not quite sure what you guys are talking about, or I can't quite picture it in my head, since the mechanically and developmentally co...

Yes very true on your points but you forgot to include people like myself that don't (HEEL-STRIKE) that naturally walk on the balls of our feet. And most trained sprinters run on the balls of their feet instead of heel toe type runners, this is what gives a sprinter their speed. later. Indeed; this...

I go barefoot everywhere, so I don't hurt myself

Yeah i walk around the house barefoot, I hate my shoes they always have my feet hurting after going to the store.

A lot would depend on a simple bit of biology; does a Werewolf have heels when in Smoothskin? Take a look at your own heels and understand that they are really part of your ANKLE , not your foot. It seems a simian attribute to have heels, since even monkeys who grasp with their feet have heels. 99%...

Similer To this I reckon: http://www.omnishift.net/artwork/icon/jon_stalking.gif But they can also run/walk on two legs like a human can. Just that they wont look like a normal human running due to there extra long legs and arms Cheers Nice animation! Which proves my point on how werewolf's would w...

which brings us to static shock. if a werewolf sat on a cloth sofa then touched metal, would it be shocked? LOL Talk about the fur standing on end!!! I had a werewolf in a "rp" that had that done to them in game and had everyone laughing at the time. "looked like a big POOF BALL of f...

Heck wearing socks can be danagerous on any freshly waxed floor, and I got the lumps to prove it.. lol

Were Wolf on a marble+furry foot pads+ speed= comic relief! *See a cat or dog trying to run on a marble floor!* LOL Talk about being able to do the moonwalk! (yeah I'm showing my age) Would be hell to do the splits on though..(Big ouch!) "makes me shudder in pain just thinking about it. along w...

Or maybe "after SHE changed"... Let us not exclude the fair gender from Lycanthropy lest they get annoyed and backhand us into the next county. Or if she is anything like my wife, she'll just pick you up and body slam you through the floor. And follow that with a frog splash right on top ...

claws catch on carpet. they do, trust me on that. especially shag carpeting. And the static shocks are annoying :lol: about the static shock Yeah just wait for that $150.00 bill from your vet for the rush visit (not including other fees) because your dog ripped a claw out running on shag carpet... ...

Well the truth of the matter is the claws would make sound on a tile floor or hardwood, but not on a carpet. I really haven't been keeping track on whats going on here as of late. The last I knew the movie "Freeborn" was in limbo and with Anthony's website for the movie shut down little ne...

lol

I have given alot of thought over the years about this subject. From two diferent points of view. As a role play gamer (werewolf the apocalypse"with some reality thrown in" and other games) And as a researcher mainly for use in my writting. Humanoid form werewolf: Two legged walk and runni...

In responce to the two posts above. Reguardless I applogized for posting the link to the main page and my user page and not warning the people on this forum of them being for an ADULT site. Saddly which I see is not the people I'm dealing with here. I.E. other adults. If you want to claim to be adul...

I do applogize for that. I'm so used to posting in adult forums on the web that I foget myself and post the links without thinking of which forum I'm currently in sometimes. Sometimes I do tend to forget that not everyone knows what a furry is...(took me some years to realize that I was one myself, ...

@Redeye: From what researchers have found out, walking digitigrade is a gliding walk and is softer on your feet and bones. A digitigrade walk is what most animals use.. Reason, this type of walk is quiet in the woods or even on the street if you are mindful of your surroundings. @Blackwolfhell: I do...

LOL

Sounds like something my son would watch!

Actualy a werewolf could rollerblade, if the rollerblades were specially made for werewolf feet..

I'm just wondering if this film is really going to happen... The actual web page for the movie has disapeared and has some page saying the domain is up for sale...wtf?
Anyone else noticed this...

Both for sure! That would entail both the human and the wolf side. Also, I would think that if the werewolf wanted to get a bit of speed, it would drop down to all fours. That's the way I would think of it. As a role playing gamer I have played many characters over the years. In many of them games ...
