[DavidTimothyLovegod]

In the documentary before the animation the Eskrima master switches the second hand grip from a sward grip to a scabbard grip. This is a subtle but important point. If you don't understand why there is no way to try to explain, but observe what happens when you try to roll out of any other grip configuration. One hand is always lost, so control is lost. Both hands are only retained here because the arm remain crossed and so the uncrossing force of the arms is lost from the throw.

lol, i tried this one my bro. . . somehow i was the one that landed on my back. :/

[darkyperv34]

lol i Remember this move!! I use to love it in The game. True crime, streets of L.A

Eskrimia martial arts originates from Philippines

[ledgen95]

light grey guy: "yea bitch!"

[neilsenable]

isn't this a filipine martial art?

[paelnaz001]

The guy is saying labai wrong. Instead of the accent on the second syllable it should be on the first. (LA-bai and not la-BAI). Just fyi.

LOL. that rhymed.

[neilsenable]

@paelnaz001 who cares dude?! it's just a freakin filipineo word that is fuckin hard 2 pronounce!

[roooGhan]

@neilsenable who cares if you don't know how to pronounce?

we don't even care about you.... we're just proud that (if your an american and some other country in the world like Russia & Germany) are using the Filipino Combat Fighting techniques to train their Military.

Not to mention that even Hollywood movies like Bourne series are using it in their fight scenes.

[Fragment87]

christanism/spain colonialism never propagated in the islands of Visayas and Mindanao..because they were a fraid of the visayans. . weilding bolos..remember they slaughtered a spanish conquistador in the 15th century. .

[youngstunna79]

@nil1230 I do this in Hap Ki Do. Navy Seals, Russian Army use Eskrima, so I am sure it is hella effective.

[erlcly02]

its so weird the way they say labai, labai means throw. and the way they say throw doesnt sound throw at all, ohh well.

[AmonRea]

that looks like one of the aikido techniques :)..

[GaolisVideoLog]

@AmonRea "that looks like one of the aikido techniques"

The unarmed Arnis techniques, as well as Aikido both derive from sword fighting. That's one reason why they share the almost the same throws and levers. However, the nature in Japan is different from SEA, that's why the Arnis rechniques are more compact and rely more on strength.

Apart from that, humans have the same anatomy everywhere. So, you'll see the same techniques in all fighting systems. Just diff. arrangement or focus

[KlausYTY]

@AmonRea Yeah Jujinage or crossthrow.

[jeffhardy6451]

[XBoxLiveissoboring]

Fuck! Spain! they were afraid of us! that's why they banned it cause they know we can kick there sorry ass's, and the three chiefs of the island let them stay there for 3 centuries, they didn't gain control of the island, the spanish lied about it legazpi lied about it saying he conquered the island the letter he send to spain.
