It took me a fourth time in watching it, but I was finally able to take a closer look at what they're actually doing. What I thought was a series of strikes with the hand are actually attempts at disarming. This is the way single-handed weapons should work: Free hand catches/disarms/stops, weapon strikes. If these are practice sticks, what's the real weapon?

... just grab the stick, pull to the side, and WHAM!

ive had the honor of learning from GM Atillo for the past three years and I can tell you with all honesty that in this video you are only seeing him at half speed to say the least. Not to mention he is not utilizing a technique called cuentada, in which you counter and disarm your opponent before they react. what you are watching is a "friendly spar" which is only utilized for training. Real combat is a lot different.

... While the speed and movement is extremely impressive, I can't imagine those moves doing a whole lot of damage (until you take the weapon away).

ah thats why you have angles, eventually someone slips up and footwork prevails making your opponent open to a strike that would normally be blocked, i just dont see a lot of footwork in this video :( but im sure they use it because balintawak puts lot of emphasis on it
