Beards


delta1

Recommended Posts

I have a full beard most Winters, since I'm outside a lot. It's a very practical thing to have in the cold. But...

 

As you can immagine, it can be a real problem in the martial arts. Besides giving an opponent something to hang on to for leverage (and pain compliance, the rotters!), I often have the embarassing tendency of grabing the thing myself when doing things like clearing/escaping headlocks or chokes. Last year I shaved my head but kept my beard. I realy don't want to part with the beard 'till Spring.

 

Any of you have a similar problem?

Try gelling your beard, so when people grab it, they get sticky and go "Eww!" and let go. It's the ultimate self-defense for bearded men, I call it Sti-ki-do. :karate:

:lol: LOL :lol: Never thought of that!

 

Axle grease might work too. Or maybe lard- after a while, the smell might reppel them! (2nd thought, not these clowns.) But the slippery trick is a good idea. I'll letcha kno. :D

Hey delta, you can conceal your weapons in it as well :lol:
Hey you could hide some ninja stars in the beard. :lol:

 

Actually, if it gets just a little longer, I think I'll jsut tie some stars in it and use it as a whip- sort of an organic cat o' nine tails. 8)

post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are.
