Keumgang Posted December 6, 2004 Posted December 6, 2004 Hi all - I'm a Taekwondo practicioner and along with 5 other teammates, I will be fighting in a tournament on Jan 29, 2005 called the "Sabaki Challenge". I hear that it's pretty brutal. No sparring gear; just mouth and groin guards. Anyone here ever participate in a tournament like this? There are no inns on the highway to death. For whose house will I stay in tonite?Prince Otsu, Japan 751 AD
DaChroniclez Posted December 6, 2004 Posted December 6, 2004 this is wat all kyokushin tournaments look like. make sure u train hard for this. train without pads so u dont get shocked when u get hit.
Chirath Posted December 6, 2004 Posted December 6, 2004 Wow man good luck. I've seen clips and pictures of it. Very intense
Knockdown Posted December 6, 2004 Posted December 6, 2004 I have tips on my website. feel free to surf. make sure you can evade leg kicks or at least bock and take 'em. also work on your sweeps and counters. good luck.

That is the right organization and style. the tournaemnt in question is a regional and not the "Big One" out in denver. But it will have some of the same fighters, and of course same rules http://virginiakarate.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7 good stuff!~
