sensei8 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 How'd you come up with the name, Titanium?? Its a nickname one of my fellow karateka's gave to me. I was competing once in kumite and another bo demonstration was happening at the same time; the bo flew out of one of the trainees hands and hit me in the head cutting and fracturing my skull. I didn't know it had happened until I looked down and saw my white gi was now red. I never felt a thing, so my club named me Titanium and bought me a gi with that stitched into the fabric.That's cool...not the ouchy part, but how you earned the name Titanium!! So, I suppose your fellow karateka's think that you're hard-headed, huh? Thanks for sharing that with us all! My pleasure, they sure do. It puzzles new member to the dojo, they actually think that is my name.That's funny!! **Proof is on the floor!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, its quite awkward explaining the story when they think it is my name. “Spirit first, technique second.” – Gichin Funakoshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
