KOTF weekly.

[kingoftheforest]

Yo King...a few questions...
1) where did you get those Indian Clubs ...
2) is that dummy home-made? how much did it end up costing you and where did you pick up the materials?
3) I really liked the bag work...those all Chinese style strikes? I liked the flow and rythm of them, I really feel like putting some of those in with my thai.

1) Purple heart armory.

2)Yes bout 100 bucks. The arms and base ar 4x4's I turned them on a lathe myself. The tree came from my father in laws yard.

3) Basically yes. It's relaxed power that ends in a whip, with the force being directed through the palm. I'm thinking of filming a little more, it's a blast to do, and loads of fun.

Faster, harder!

Show me (us) what you can do>!!!

I like your stuff buddy... in case I haven't made that clear?

There are a number of styles of SILAT that have certain softer (kung-fu) styles influence.... I may have been exposed to that deliberate (almost slow-ish) style of checking and attachment deflection movement... I need more!

Thanks kindly as always KOTF...

Worked on filming some last night and plan on it after work today and maybe tomorrow morning too.

And I even got the wife a bag of chips!

Lol. Actually it was a comment made on another forum I was refring too.

The bag is even featured in my next vid.

Had to look again

So I did post in the other thread this week, but since I already had some stuff recorded lets kick off the first Sunday of KOTF weekly.

BJJexpertise here you go.


In my first vid I had some dummy work in it. A couple people didn't understand the exercises so here are the applications for them.

Enjoy.

YouTube - dummy work

....................bump. Reminds me of how I "play" with my kids.

And why I love my karambits.

And what did we learn? LOL

I think giving up my knife would be worse than losing a finger.

I almost lost my pinkie to that knife.


Just finished filming, might make it to the edit room tonite, on the boards tomorrow afternoon at the latest.

[kingoftheforest]

Get to stepin'

Here we go. A new week. This vid was an editing nightmare. I shot it in 6 different segments and then pasted the pertinent parts together.


I posted me using the technique on the hit pads, at the end of the vid.

It should give you an idea of the power and speed that go into the actual application.

Enjoy, and Tant hope you love those elbows. You might see a few old friends hiding in this concept.

I still suck at explaining this stuff to a camera.

Aside from a little Wing Chun and it's offshoots (wing tsun, etc) and people like Earl Montaigue, I don't think I've seen the applications for the Chinese martial arts explained in depth like this.

I appreciate your willingness to share your stuff like this. This gives me better perspective for the CMAs (most of what I'm used to seeing in the CMAs I pretty much readilly dismiss as impractical bunk or simply aesthetically pleasing coreography with little utility in a fight) but you seem to have worked your art to be REAL. That's important, man, and something most martial artists don't truly live up to.

Plus...I really like the elbows from the interview position.

When the hell am I going to see some knife work?

I have Boar, stabbychick and TTe, for that ability. Most people have mentor, I have tormentors.

Fights aren't pretty that's for sure. Watch two animals fight, there's nothing pretty or graceful there, just violent and fluid.

And most importantly quick.

I'm glad I got that lesson early on. I was bouncing at the time and someone in class mentioned hand positions in those situations.

This was basically what we got. On drunks it works like a charm. You got 'em out the door before they know the hit the lot.

Works good on sober people too. You just got to pop them up side the head every few seconds to remind them whose, steering.

When the hell am I going to see some knife work?

I'll have to work up to that. I have to add more knife into my training and bring the wife up to par before I film anything like that.

Then there's the moral dilemma of putting that kind of thing out for anyone with a net connection.
We'll see.

It's in there...

I usually watch twice. Once to see what he's presenting and again to glean potential cutting mayhem.

Thank your wife for me, eh KOTF?
