Kensai Posted February 9, 2003 Posted February 9, 2003 The only thing I have ever broken was my own leg when running in the sea in Devon. DAMN SURFERS, oh I would love to get that guy on the mat! As for breaking boards, I usually cut them with the power of my mind. On a serious note, congrats Mike!
Tobias_Reece Posted February 9, 2003 Posted February 9, 2003 Zero, surely you could have used your sharp metal claws (internal joke) Kensai, you never used your magnetic powers to break a board (anothe internal joke) I, personally, would use my sharp playing cards (my goodness these internal jokes are abundant today) "You Are Never Given A Dream Without Also Being Given The Power To Make It True.

karatekid1975 Posted February 9, 2003 Posted February 9, 2003 Hehehehehe. You guys are too funny. Anyways, my first break was a back kick (one board). That was my worse kick at the time. I had to do it for my green belt in Tang Soo Do. I kept saying that bad word (can't). My instructor started yelling at me (he was holding the board). He knew that was the only way to get me siked up. First shot, I broke the board. I was shocked, "Did I do that???????" LOL He smiled and said, "I told you that you can do it!" and pretended to whack me with the broken board. He is so cool. Laurie F
KickChick Posted February 9, 2003 Posted February 9, 2003 Way to go Mike! Pretty awesome feeling huh? (oh not the hurt hand ... I mean ) When I was a gold belt my first break was a single step-behind sidekick and then a hammerfist single board. We use 1-inch pine boards though. I'm up to 4-5 boards (depending on the break) ... and whether or not I use the "power board holder".

karatekid1975 Posted February 9, 2003 Posted February 9, 2003 Thanks Mike:) Hey, Kickchick. I'm catching up to you. I'm up to two board breaks now. I wanna start three soon Laurie F
