mookie Posted December 13, 2003 Posted December 13, 2003 im referring to the black belt test not the others.
battousai16 Posted December 15, 2003 Posted December 15, 2003 i haven't seen many failed black belt tests either, but maybe that's just a midwestern thing. "I hear you can kill 200 men and play a mean six string at the same time..."-Six String Samurai
SBN Doug Posted December 15, 2003 Posted December 15, 2003 Technically, it's not failing. We have to take a series of tests for BB. You get additional black stripes on your brown for each test, but you will never pass on your first time. Also shows our patience and perseverance.

monkeygirl Posted December 16, 2003 Posted December 16, 2003 As I'm sure you've gathered by now, black belts are not meant only for 20-something bodybuilders in perfect physical condition and health. It's all about skill and how you use it! So, with that in mind: keep training, keep healthy, and good luck! 1st dan & Asst.
