The camera's a little tilty (yes, that's a word), and there's no sound (thanks to my camera), but here's me doing Long Form 3.

Hope ya'll like!

Note the lovely wooden facade from that bloody drunk driver, and my nice little ankle brace (trying to heal!).

PS. As I watch it again, it's a little hard to tell what happens in the bo kata on the end - that final strike I did loops over my head and makes a decent sized scrape across the roof above me. Oops. :roll:

wow, that's completely different to the forms i'm used to. very quick.

"Gently return to the simple physical sensation of the breath. Then do it again, and again, and again. Somewhere in this process, you will come face-to-face with the sudden and shocking realization that you are completely crazy. Your mind is a shrieking, gibbering madhouse on wheels." - ven. henepola gunaratana

Oh, yeah, me too. Definitely not what I am used to doing, but I like learning new things. If I had a clearer video production, with the movements performed in a more demonstrative manner, I am pretty confident that I could learn it from you, parkerlineage. Very well done.

Looks quite good. Brings back memories of my old Kempo days!

Is that in fast forward? Looks a little under cranked.

The mind is like a parachute, it only works when it's open.

Is that a traditional style of karate used there? It's very disciplined and fast - I like it!

The best armour is to keep out of range.

Thank you all for your compliments!

Well...I suppose not really traditional - American Kenpo is only about 60 years old.

I used my new digital still-photo camera, which also has very bad video taking abilities. I noticed that it looks kinda crazy, but no, it's not in fast forward - it just kind of skips frames, because its framerate is low.

If I had a clearer video production, with the movements performed in a more demonstrative manner, I am pretty confident that I could learn it from you, parkerlineage.

If you're really nice to me, I'll film it again, slower, and put it up. :D

Lots of people say it's completely different than what they're used to, which surprises me. How so?

Thanks again!
