Hawkmoon Posted June 10, 2014 Author Share Posted June 10, 2014 Congratulations on a good showing. I was supposed to go to that but it clashed with a seminar. Any footage available from it?Yes, there is!, (none of mine thankfully) On Youtube Search for: 2014 bkk regional10 Videos on showIn FaceBook search for: British Kyokushinkai Karate.Videos and pics from the Knockdown as well as pics from the Wales v England competition.Enjoy!It was a good day loads of fun, caught up with some friends as well which was a surprise!(Although I have to admit having my 3rd place handed to me by Hanshi Steve Arneil himself was a real buzz!)Thanks all for your kind words! “A human life gains luster and strength only when it is polished and tempered.”Sosai Masutatsu Oyama (1923 - 1994) Founder of Kyokushin Karate.

Hawkmoon Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share Posted June 11, 2014 Thanks Dwx!One of the fights I enjoyed was watching Sam (Shiro/white) fight Chris (Aka/red). Sam is from our club and is a fighter who I trust, respect and fight with often, he has hurt me (my ribs) a couple of times doing what he does at about 1.16.So I feel for Chris, and have respect for Chris for carrying on!'That' punch form Sam is really powerful!The day was awesome, I cannot get over the buzz and the action of the day.Truly enjoyed it all! “A human life gains luster and strength only when it is polished and tempered.”Sosai Masutatsu Oyama (1923 - 1994) Founder of Kyokushin Karate.
