@andrewubaldi most Kubatons that are cheaper are made from aluminum, which works though it's heavier. the Kubaton used here are made from super strong polymer, which is lighter. this allows for way easier use, and just carrying around plus polymer doesn't loose its color as easily as aluminum does lol
I think in the sequence with the guy, swinging her arm around his, breaking the elbow would have just left more spots open, like sternum and temple strikes.
If taken away, this presumes that the attacker knows how to use the weapon. However, your point is very well made; train on the weapon. Know it and be aware of how to use it...and always, always, always try to have a Plan B.
people make fun of it, but this kinda stuff, and things like the defenses you learn in your yellow and orange belt stages are the most simple, and most effective techniques to train.
0:43 wow why not just learn some basic strikes instead of taking the time to reach into ur pocket and grab this

The college students in the video were learning how to use a kubaton...their credentials are not listed.
Meaning they may or may not know how to punch, block, kick, etc...
The young lady in the video at the time the video was made (over a year ago) had just got her green belt in Judo...
What's shown in a youtube video is not the "end all be all of everything."
It is what it is...

@chevygearhead454 a kubaton is a force multiplier man... you do so much more damage than you do with just your bare fists.

the kubaton is made out of metal right

No...negative...super strong, indestructable (through normal use) polymer.
The ones sold at Alpha Innovations are usually black, they have other colors available.
Thr ones use in the training video are gray training kubatons...softer than the real ones.

@HELLZZARMY Hey Friend I have the same Kubaton as you and it's from Alpha Inno.
They are really tough and rugged. Have you ever break any glass with that before?

So when you're assaulted, you stab the bad guy with a magic marker? Cool..

Lmao, I was asking you! I'm a complete novice with a Kubaton.
I recently purchased one from BudK and I've been trying to learn some strikes. :P

The kubotan makes a great defensive keychain "fob", still many don't understand/appreciate the power of the loaded fist...Good preview J.T.

Supposing the attacker doesn't just trap her arm...

Yeah "what if"...she would have to adapt, improvise, and overcome...
This is just a beginner course DVD...I jusy chose this 49 second clip...

True enough, but I feel like if you dont know how to use a weapon it its fullest capacity, its just going to be taken away and used against you.
