DeeLovesKarate Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 Can anyone tell me where to purchase a light bo for myy musical form? Also, does anyone have any good musical sites for m musical kata and me? I need some techno, but I can't seem to find any sites.... I'm back from a small injury, if anyone wants details, I'll tell, but I'm just glad to be off my crutches and re-training. ous, Dee Dee C.Normal ( 'nor-m&l)-an adj. used by humans to stereotype Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeygirl Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 Welcome back! Injuries suck and it's always nice to get back from them The bo I use is a Century graphite bo and it's pretty light. Has a nice shine, too, AND because it isn't wood it doesn't warp. However, if you drop the bo, the paint will chip quite easily. Don't confuse this with an aluminum bo though, or you'll be vastly disappointed those things weigh a ton. Century also has a Competition bo that's an ash color. My brother uses a 6' one, and it's as light as my 5' graphite (I'm a shorty ) Finally, ProForce has some incredibly light bos. These things spin so fast, and they only cost about $20. A far cry from the norm of $50. However, they tend to warp...a lot. In a month or two, they look like they should be strung to shoot arrows. However, they still are the lightest thing I know. Happy bo hunting, and don't be getting hurt again! 1st dan & Asst. Instructor TKD 2000-2003No matter the tune...if you can rock it, rock it hard.

SaiFightsMS Posted January 29, 2003 Share Posted January 29, 2003 The lightest wood bo's are usually the toothpick bo's, which are quiete fragile, or the Canadian Ash bo's. One of the cheapest places to find both is: http://www.martialartssupermarket.com/ Take a look around in their catalogue they may have others now as well.

monkeygirl Posted January 30, 2003 Share Posted January 30, 2003 Oops I didn't even see that part of your question! I don't really know where you can find Techno stuff...however, my demo team (like the corny people we are) uses a lot of stuff from the Mortal Kombat soundtrack. 1st dan & Asst.

monkeygirl Posted January 31, 2003 Share Posted January 31, 2003 I was thinking about this thread last night as I watched ER and listened to the theme music ...I can't imagine doing a kata to that... Go down to your local music store and ask some eclectic-looking people there (whether or not they work there!). Alternatively, there might be a techno/dance section amongst the CD's. I'd love to do something to the original James Bond Theme. Moby might be good... 1st dan & Asst. Instructor TKD 2000-2003No matter the tune...if you can rock it, rock it hard.
