i was sparrin in my first spar not to long ago and when eva i punched my sparing partener fullforce (my partener said it was the hardest punch he had eva incountered while sparring) i had to shake out my hand to use it again becuase it would go limp if this is weak wrists then how do i fix them. and if it isnt weak wrists wat is wrong and how do i fix and no it didnt hurt much at all it just went limp.

i was sparring with a guy who is really strong and i was the only kid his rank and size so they stuck me with his about a 4:45 min:sec into the fight he dose a low punch and i go down i have no idea why but i think he nocked the wind out of me and then i have trouble breathing and find out he had knocked the wind out of me. this was my first spar in TKD him and i were whiteys and he was like 30 and had a kick that sends you to hollywood if he gets i a good one in(which he did so i would know) also jammed my thumb. for those of you have double knuckles in your thumbs dont let if happen to you i know i was a wimp but hey it was my first spar. o ya i had a ton of padding on and he still nocked the wind out of me. soon ill have to face my fear of him in my second spar its gonna be fun and painfull. i may sound weird but i like some pain in my diet. what hurts me i dont let it hurt me again unless its a girrrrl -
i wasnt critisizing, i was just answering the question and im sure im not the only one who has trouble with spelling

i bought a pair of really nice Swords at https://www.eknifeworks.com but i dont think they were kantanas any way the have cheap swords there. but i would suggest https://www.coldsteel.com for a price range in the 200-400 dollar mark for fully usable kantanas. ps i have never heard of a kitana, did u mean kantana?
-
i must agree. i know that no video is as good as a mentor and my TKD instrutor has sais but doesnt ever use them ( at least to my knowlege he doesnt) so i dont know if he knows how to use them. not that ill learn how to use sais right away but i hope to in the future so i also would like to know wich video could teach the fundamentals. o ya and what styles r their for learning the sai and which are best?
-
ya i have never seen a custom sai site what are some?
-
i agree with shorin i hate to use flashy weapon becuase they make me feel as if i need something else to be good.

if i was to get some wood numchuks then what type of handle should i get??
-
the sword i used did not have enough handle for my wide hands so i decided to use them dual handed this is easy to do with the right set mine werent curved they were strait. and to do it with a medeval sword would make your movemnts slow and the sword unweildly. this would also happen if i had had a curved bladed long handled kantana. my swords were 26 inches long so not very long and when running up the back of my arms only came to half way up my tricep.

your mind... you can overcome anything with it. you can teach it to use certain items to use to its advantage (weapons chairs feet hands ect..)
-
want great swords go here i got the best pair i had ever had in my life. i even was able to use them as a axe and machete the were sweet they cost about $32.?? for two pairs at https://www.eknifeworks.com this place has the lowest priced sword but you have to look hard to find a good one.(they have about 1000). an o ya my swords were the double poormans.

What do you carry self defense wise?

not that i go against firearms ( im a hunter and own several) but i think to carry one in hopes of killing your attacker is just wrong. in my veiw i think the only pistol i would use would be a small one to kill rabbits and such. but the only time i would really mean to hurt a person with a gun in my entire life would be like... when i am seeing a guy with dynamite strapped to him run at a bus full of kids, and other such instances. -
and o ya if you really wanna kill somebody with a sword and look kewl doin it (mabye) go get an instructor if you wanna look cool infront of your friends (if they have no idea how to use a sword) and a fool in the eyes of your master and enemys dont get an instructor. i didnt get one cause i just wanted the hand eye quardination which i now plan on getting from a bo the it why i sold my swords... to buy a bo
-
yes. were you said that you spun the sai because it was fun well i did that with my swords but just because it was fun although i needed more toward my attack and defence, well; i started useing twirls in my attacks to get to the place faster. example i wanted to strike with the sword running up the back of my arm then sling it out as an attack to distract the enemy and then come in with the opposite sword for the killing-wounding blow. but to get it behind my arm elbow ect i had to quickly twirl it. that is probally the only benefit i see for spinning besides hand-eye quadination wich i was trying to get first and to my surprize i also found that i soon had arms like popeyes.

i twirled dual shords about 26 inches long and i was good with them(then i sold them) i could flip them around in my fingers i could bring one of them around for a block i could flip the other in for a very crushing blow but this is all because im partially crazy and i am very strong in my arms but when i was doing all this stuff i was going very slow ly and then after i felt confedent about it i would do it faster and faster. i could even flip the handle around my hand and catch the blade (i practiced on dull ones mind you) when i did this stuff everybody around me tended to take a few steps back it was fun i miss my blade i need to get some more.
