There were a lot of posters in the "what do you suck at thread" that brought up basketball, even though many claimed they were good athletes. Which got me to thinking, which sport is the hardest to get good at?
Assume you are generally a good athlete and can pick up on most athletic endeavors pretty easily. Which sport do you think you would struggle with the most?
I've always thought that basketball was the toughest one. I've seen lots of good athletes look like fools on the court because they can't do basic things like dribble with both hands. On the other hand I've seen good athletes when just starting sports like softball, football and golf pick it up fairly quickly.
I voted for surfing - without a doubt the hardest sport I've ever tried (and I'm not talking long-boarding). What pro surfers can do on a wave is incredible, but not something the Average Joe appreciates.
