Traymond Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Oh yes I forgot about the chalk or Talc it does work very well I use it for weightlifting as well...you dont want a 200lb weight coming down on your chest...whuh.But with chalk it usually ends up in my eye...has that ever happened to anyone else before?

That used to happen to me all the time so I quit using chalk and just worked out with sweaty hands, and a really tight grip. It made my grip pretty strong. Semper Fi , Dave

Ozpunker Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 When I used to play drums I did come across stuff called "gorilla snot". I can't remember if you put it on your hands or on the sticks but either way it's supposed to stop slippage. I'd check your local music store before messing around with your weapons.
Ozpunker Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 This is the stuff I was thinking about http://www.zzounds.com/item--GRSGOSNOT Looking at it now, I'm not too sure if it'd work with a bo. I'd still check the music shop anyways.
Traymond Posted February 10, 2009 Posted February 10, 2009 Is it non abrasive?...Because if its abrasive your bo is gonna look like crap if you use it. I used a light abrasive one time and it stuck to my bo for a long , while, and ended up warping it by trying to remove the abrasive, and does this snot work on lacquer as well?...Because if it does I may buy some its only $4.95 a jar, which isn't bad...its cheaper than tiger balm...If you do sand your bo it will give a more of a natural look and at traditional kobudo tournaments they look for naturalness in the weapons.

white owl Posted February 13, 2009 Author Posted February 13, 2009 This my bo so I really do not want to sand it if I do not have to http://www.karatedepot.com/wp-bo-31.html you can see the would grain through the finish it is really nice.
