frightmaster Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Don't Call me Sir, I love the title. Demolition/Destruction Champion. NICE. Like to see your skills some time. I persoanlly love breaking and I know the long term affects. I have not done anything beyond wood but used all parts of my body from head to toes. February 24, 2007 I received my Black Belt in WTF TKD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sohan Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I was British Demolition/Destruction Champion for 3 years and continued to do breaking demos and seminars for over 12 years. Last year I was diagnosed with arthritis in my two knuckles and have partially lost mobility in both joints and lost feeling across the back of my hand. I will also have to take medication for the rest of my life for my condition.I'm in the process of phasing out Breaking from my Syllabus, simply because of the long term effects and to honest, I really don't see the point to it any more.DCMS.DCMS, would it be out of line to ask how old you are? I am 39 (about to be 40) and am starting to experience some arthritis in my hands as well. I think it is from boxing and TKD as a youngster since we don't do breaking in Shorin-ryu.With respect,Sohan "If I cannot become one of extraordinary accomplishment, I will not walk the earth."

Aodhan Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Odd. I'm 39, and I've been in martial arts since about 1987, and sports in general since I was 5.No arthritis or other ills yet!

taiji fajin Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Okay, I've got to know--where did your tagline come from? With respect,Sohanhaha, thanks, I love it.Aodhon was close, it's Space Ghost Coast to Coast, from 1999. The Chambraigne episode. Fetch Daddy's blue fright wig! I must be handsome when I unleash my rage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
