    In addition to the regular full contact fights & nunchaku fights our compeitions are getting sword and bo-staff fights (using foam versions), as well as breaking , self-defence demonstrations, kicking tests and break fall tests. This is the video to promote it.

    Where are you getting the padded staffs from?

    I honestly don't know where they are getting them from, I only found out about this new development a few months ago and the video to launch it was only done recently. I will be attending a training camp on it in june. OrientalMooDo/HanMooDo Finland offer all of the equipment required for HanMooDo so I can always get it off them. Finding the right padded staffs and swords was one of the reasons this wasn't done until now (or so I was told a few years ago when I asked about that kind of sparring).

    When I get my hands on them later in the summer I will make a note of the brand and if I remember I will let you know.

    Hey Mak question, do you do much neck bridging in your judo training or at all?I see in some of those vids they do a kinda headstand roll to get back on their feet if that makes sense?One would need a really strong neck for that stuff.

    And just from this thread I'm really itching to give Judo a go it looks like proper craic.:DYou're a good ambassador for the sport on this forum.

    Personally speaking I don't do any kind of neck bridging exercises because I believe it causes more harm than good.. re the neck rolls you'll see there, of course if I was thrown in competition I'd try it to deny my opponent an ippon score, but that would be largely instinctual than trained.

    Thanks, but I'd love to see more contribute to the thread.. I also train BJJ when I can, it benefits my judo greatly - but sadly I can't find a Jitz clip which excites me..

    Anyone got some for the thread?.

    Again thanks, but sometimes I feel like I'm hogging this thread at the expense of other's.. Like I said, I also train BJJ but I appreciate all styles done well.

    I tell people, and get a little stick for it - the most exciting (apart from Judo) style I've seen was Kendo, I've been to a few competitions and love it as a spectator.

    So come on guys, post up!.

    Went to Japan last year for training. Spent most my time training with these instructors, good times.

    This is a great documentary about kendo, shame they've covered the subtitles in other subtitles.

    That was brilliant, thanks.

    I like a story like that.

    Not sure if I posted Yamashita's story from the '84 L.A. Olympics, so here it is - he also wrote a great book, 'The Fighting Spirit of Judo'.

    i came across this a while back and thought it was pretty interesting.

    Fun to watch him in the ring too, flying triangles, spinning backfists and lots of other weird stuff going on!

    If you could build a Frankenstein version of the ultimate Kyokushin fighter it would look a little like this. Great music too!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 24,878 ✭✭✭✭arybvtcw0eolkf


    I like Kyokushin ^^^

    For fun now -

    ^^ I think you might have the wrong thread!.

    I wish more Judo ref's were like Gunter Lind and allow more time on the ground.

    Here he is allowing Kashiwazaki work his ground game.

    Anyone know the Irish guy getting thrown at 35 seconds?




    Love this throw! If only I could do it:(


  • Registered Users Posts: 184 ✭✭KathleenMcCabe


    It's not an art that i have ever done so i don't know if it technically qualifies for this thread, but here's a clip of Benny the Jet. :)

    I got a freeze on his face and didnt recognise him. Old enough video though, in a light enough weight...Eric O Donnell maybe?

    Yeah it looks like it was taken off an old VHS tape so it could be from mid 80's all the way up to 00's

    I'd watch Garcia all day. Probably the pound for pound best grappler in the world.

    It's from Walker Texas Ranger, it's a bit hazy but I think Chuck has a brown belt in Judo from his younger days when he was a military policeman in the US Air Force so he's not new to grappling. He also got an honourary BBJ black belt form the Machado Brothers I think.
