Tobias_Reece Posted August 17, 2001 Share Posted August 17, 2001 Goose, Sorry to tell you, but you're not a 10th Kyu in KObudo. YOu have to grade for your 10th Kyu, and you haven't done that yet Just thought I'd tell you.. C ya "You Are Never Given A Dream Without Also Being Given The Power To Make It True.

KUGB_Chris1985 Posted August 18, 2001 Share Posted August 18, 2001 about the foam nunchaku, they are a really good idea, I started of with metal, telescopic ones and they really hurt when you hit yourself with them foam ones are much nicer "In combat know the enemys rhythm, use a rhythm he cannot anticipate, upset his rhythm, and win."

moobrack Posted August 18, 2001 Share Posted August 18, 2001 I find them harder to use than the wooden chain nunchaku.

Apart from Wing Chun, where I started off with nothing, and had to grade for your first sash (red). _________________ Best Wishes Darryl Garrick 9th Kyu Shotokan Karate Karate International Black Belt Schools (UK) This Message was edited by: Goose on Aug 18, 2001 12:27pm Goose6th Kyu Shotokan Karate9th Kyu Okinawan KobudoKarate International Black Belt Schools (UK) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaiboxerken Posted August 18, 2001 Share Posted August 18, 2001 Foam chucks are good to train with. But don't spar or train with them at full power. They break too easy, and can still hurt if you smack you partner with them. BTW..
