RubberBoy1 Posted January 18, 2004 Posted January 18, 2004 Hi! I was wondering if anyone can tell me if TigerStrike sparring gear (as seen here) is any good. It's pretty inexpensive in this set, and it looks good, at least in the pictures. This is the first time I've purchase any sparring gear, and I haven't even used headgear yet, so I'm not really sure what to look for. Thanks!
Coudo Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 I think it looks like crap, especially the footgear, never seen any thing like that before... but then again I dont kick ! Those gloves seem to be pretty low quality, or is it the silver color that does that? I dont know man, seems pretty bad to me... one good thing is the headgear, they dont cover too much of the face, just like its supposed to be...
Terriator Posted January 19, 2004 Posted January 19, 2004 well...i would never buy it...like Coudo said: It looks like crap Never think that Karate is practiced only in The Dojo. The entire world is a Dojo, and true Karate training takes place twenty-four hours a day./Gichin Funakoshi Sensei
RubberBoy Posted January 20, 2004 Posted January 20, 2004 Thanks guys! (although I kinda like the silver ) (By the way, this is my real alias, without the 1. I just did that because I had accidentally said that I was under 13, but I wanted to make a post even though it hadn't been cleared up yet. )
Pacificshore Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 Check out https://www.tigerclaw.com , or any other MA supply sites. I'm sure they'll have better quality gear and the color u want. Di'DaDeeeee!!!Mind of Mencia
RubberBoy Posted January 21, 2004 Posted January 21, 2004 What about Century gear? I found a good price at https://www.allblackbelt.com.
stl_karateka Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 Century is good stuff -- I think there is another thread around here with opinions on century KarateForums.com Sempai
