Scalloped pavers are easy. Try to break some concrete cinder block caps.

Roy W. Klase (Bill) Was my father. I began being trained in the martial arts as a toddler back in the early 80s before my dad even had classes at the 49th St location, which was ran by Neil Humerstone(Aki Tora Ryu) when my dad first started running his own classes there, until eventually taking over the location and teaching only his own system. For anyone questioning his rank as a 10th dan , everyone is intitled to an opinion however here are some feats I will list that my father performed during some of his prime years. Breaking 10 bricks consistantly with a shuto or a seiken, breaking three 50lb blocks ontop of the St. Petersburg pier with single punch,cutting watermelons ontop of peoples stomachs while blindfolded, piercing himeself with a bicycle spoke and hanging cinder blocks from them,and numerous other inovative breaking techniques for his time. If that's not interesting maybe knowing that he was a sulsa(specialist) in eun shin bop fully trained by the South Korean ROC Army's White Horse Division. He enlisted in the US Army at the age of seventeen and was participant in the tet offensive in vietnam. He would possibly be here today to defend himself if it weren't due to exposure to agent orange and maybe another reason. Almost everyone has critics.My dad probably wouldn't really care what someone thought about his rank. Similar to me I don't and never have cared about ranks. I still morn my father every day , but now I have began training again this time away from a commercialized school and back to the OLD SCHOOL.
