now im more interested in kendo lol looks awsome nd i think the red guy needs more work on his foot work as he looses it way to much in this battel XD
@Corey91666 i think you just got the wrong idea, i was just saying that i was goin to be taken kendo soon that was all, i didnt think i was anything big or somethin like that.
i was just lookin for some freindly advice thats all, of course unless i'm gettin what your sayin is wrong. in which case i ended up not taken kendo but instead took iaijutsu(Eishin-Ryu) and i've gotten to 2nd kyu but have had to stop do to family issues at the moment
every time somebody goes for a strike, they open themselves for another strike. In European fencing, all strikes are designed to draw a response, which in turn leaves the opponent open. Japanese kendo evolved differently. They decided instead to wait out the perfect strike. If a strike isn't perfect, it's a failure and an opening for a response, which will lose him the match.
im a chodan in kendo and i believe a clean, perfect cut on the head, wrist, or waist will give you a quick victory over someone out of control, and trying to cut anywhere
the ideal kendo is to be calm and observerative, and killing the opponent in half their pace. as their sword rises, yours rises and cuts before theirs completely rises.
Hehe you can kinda see it...looks like he goes in to strike and gets blocked...appears to have the wind knocked out of him as well, he landed square on his back.

just in case the person blocks the first one coz they probably wont be able to block the next ten stikes comin at their head at different angles.

I was replying to Aussiemaster and saying that you don't have to go crazy.
You must practice kumdo because you said chodan. I am samdan. Where is your school located?

I'm a kendoka. Any idea when they allow tsuki in tournaments? I'm trying to figure out about what rank these people are.
kikaku2501 5 years ago
Tsuki is pretty much allowed in all tournaments in Japan except for like kids... They usually disallow it in other countries in like mudan divisions.

@kikaku2501 i heard u need 1st or 2nd dan for using tsuki (i live in germany)
we r tought to never ever use it before because its a quite dangerous thing to use...
