sensei8 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 (edited) *TameshiwaraWe use baseball bat for ours what do you use?Boards, bricks, roofing tiles, 2X4's, 2X2X8's, and rocks. The higher the Dan rank testing the more of the materials to choose from as well as the quantity. Edited February 16, 2009 by sensei8 **Proof is on the floor!!!

sensei8 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Oh whuh I dont like tile, thats just terrible...whuh.You probably don't like roofing tiles for the same reason that I don't like baseball bats other than during a baseball game.Why don't you like roofing tiles? If you say because of the slate that's found in American made roofing tiles, then I wholeheartedly concur with you on that.It's not that I don't like baseball bats in my Tameshiwara, it's just that I've never tried to break a baseball bats with my shins or the like. It's the unknown about it as well I suppose...I really don't know. **Proof is on the floor!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tallgeese Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 You guys can keep it .

Truestar Posted February 17, 2009 Author Share Posted February 17, 2009 I don't think a baseball bat to the shins would be very appealing...I'll pass on that for any breaking thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the unknown about it as well I suppose...I really don't know. yes it is the slate as well. I dont prefer baseball bat but its is required for my next testing, so I am taking my time. But I do PREFER Blocks of Ice, I think those are the best, we do those for outdoor demos alot, especially in the winter.But with all breaking its just a conditioning exercise and a way to show martial arts in a wider spectrum. If you can destroy mass, no matter what the mass is, just think what can be done to the human body if need be.?
