All 1,023 one-step techniques (rank specific) - each rank has between 101 and 136 one-step techniques.

Sorry, but, what in the world? How long does your test last? WOW!

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.

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.

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.?
