betty1980 Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 (edited) Was just wondering what style this is?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-32MVT6tjg&NR=1 Edited July 11, 2011 by betty1980
Montana Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 What style?Well, I'd say it was the Two High School Kids Screwing Around-Do system..very common actually and practiced widely among teens.It's not a very effective system and there is no actually organization that supports it.

betty1980 Posted July 11, 2011 Author Posted July 11, 2011 lol right, so it's not actually a style? the guy on the right looks pretty cool and has a good stance etc.
MasterPain Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 lol right, so it's not actually a style? the guy on the right looks pretty cool and has a good stance etc.Are you the guy on the right? My fists bleed death. -Akuma
MasterPain Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 Seriously though, he stands too sideways then brings his feet too close together. Being too sideways makes his lead hand weak, his rear hand can't reach a target. His leg is a great target for low kicks. Bring your feet together, except before a longer range kick is a bad idea, as it makes for a weak base. Notice that a shove sent him flying? He has no idea what he's doing with his hands. A cool looking pose and a good fighting stance are not the same thing. My fists bleed death. -Akuma
ps1 Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 So the other dude is better? You can't say either person is better. It's pretty clear that they are putting on a "stage combat" performance. This means that it is rehearsed and needs to follow no style or even be applicable to real life. Asking who's better is a bit like asking who's better between Neo from the Matrix and Ra's Al Ghoul from Batman. They're both fictional so there is no answer. "It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenius."
Montana Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 So the other dude is better?When you see two people doing what these two are doing, and both obviously haven't a clue as to what they are doing...who can say which one is worse?Bad is bad...I don't think, with only 36 years in the martial arts, I can really say which one of the two is the worst.Pretty even if you ask me. If you don't want to stand behind our troops, please..feel free to stand in front of them.Student since January 1975---4th Dan, retired due to non-martial arts related injuries.
yamesu Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Im confused... The link takes me to a video of two senior citizens throwing wild punches at one another... "We did not inherit this earth from our parents. We are borrowing it from our children."
