Jadnek Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Am I the only one that thinks it looks sped up via computer or something? If you were waiting for the opportune moment, that was it. ~Captain Jack Sparrow~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 Am I the only one that thinks it looks sped up via computer or something?I tried to see if I could find jumps or cuts in the video, but I don't have a well trained eye for that. Not sure. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaymac Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 I thought it looked legit. I was at a seminar once and was watching some kung fu practitioners working out together and they were quite fast with awesome control, similar to this guy. Irregardless of how fast this was or wasn't it looked like it would be an affective technique, i mean he was aiming for quite susceptible vital striking areas. A great martial artist is one who is humble and respectful of others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragn Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Yeah that sure is fast, but is it usefull?Theres no power in those strikes. Even if he did connect with them, theres no force behind them to be of much effect. I think some MArtists get caught up in this kind of technical prowess and forget about the realistic applications of technique against a resisting opponent.To me its impressive but pointless.Just my opinion.

Dont call me Sir Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 The clip is a good example of muscle memory, which can be achieved be simply doing the same thing(s) over and over. Ok, some people will be quicker than others, but that's all.I'd like to see the same guy use the same techniques, with effect, on a non-compliant partner using 'Aliveness', then I'll be impressed. But then it depends on what he's trying to achieve. For use on the street; nope, never.DCMS. "There's nothing wrong with my defence, you attacked me wrong!"

MizuRyu Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 It isn't quite anything I've seen in my Ving Tsun class, But don't say it isn't effective in combat. I could see it being quite useful for feints, in real application he would only have to land the first strike and follow through, either crush the trachea or seal the artery.

But once the hands come up to block and protect, it would change what he has to do, slowing him a bit. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
