This is the first vid I stumbled upon when I decided to take up ropedart and it was very helpful. :) thanx man keep up tha good work!!

[paramedia161]

Great video! I know what I'm making tomorrow! :) One of my short throwing spikes is getting a hole drilled across the tail, and out comes the paracord....

2 thumbs up man!

@paramedia161

Thanks for the feedback! I love getting these responses of other guys picking up the rope dart. Just remember, it is a weapon and is DANGEROUS. I really can't stress enough how much everyone should consider starting with something other than pointy metal on the other end of that rope! I was swinging a tennis ball on some clothesline for months before I ever touched something deadly.

My freind got me into this, he is in wushu and show me these tricks in high speed almost breaking somethings in theprosses and its amazing like landing your first backflip!!!:)

@fullfreydog this is such an awesome video & showing it slow-mo is even more helpful but question: will the kyoketsu shoge in ninja assassin work the same way? I mean I know it's just a hollywood made weapon and that it borrows both kyoketsu & rope dart techniques but do the basics still apply? Please respond THANKS!

@SyracusAlmighty

I had to look that up, lol. I like to tie off the rope dart to my left wrist, though I've seen people who perform fire dart by holding the knotted end in their fist... so it COULD be possible to do tricks by holding the sharpened hook end while spinning the circular end. Can't say I'd try any kind of wrap while spinning the hooked weapon (Fairly obvious reasons)... but if you do decide to spin with one, please by something made to practice with that isn't 100% lethal.

dude you are awesome thanks

[joelquebec]

Thanks for the video. I can't find anyone in my part of TX that can show me stuff with a rope dart. I use 2 soft rubber balls wrapped up instead of the actual dart until i get good enough not to knock myself out.

[fullfreydog]

Thanks for everyone responding and viewing. I know I haven't updated anything recently, but I do have some video I've been trying to edit from like a month back (video editor crashed a dozen times and I eventually gave up)...

So new video soon. Now that summer's over, maybe I can post a few more updates in the coming weeks.

Thanks again guys, and I'm really happy to see it helping someone!

Hi Sir, it is a very nice video and easily to follow your movement. Thank you

[TABjuggler]

Great tutorial man. I just made a practice rope dart yesterday and I am having a blast with it so far.  These were really easy to follow and I can't wait to try them out after I get a glove for my hand. It is nicely blistered so far :P

[g888]

[healingtobias]

What is that awesome song?

[twinryu]

taishita jutsu!! i'm impressed.

[RopeDart9]

Awsome Video Dude!!! It was so easy to follow! Hands down the best on this site. When are you going to make more?

[ryarod]

Fullfreydog, THANK YOU!!!! I've been looking all over for decent tutorials on the Rope Dart. You, sir, are an answer to my prayers.

[fullfreydog]

Wow. Thank you. It's nice to be appreciated! Have fun and be safe, and if you have any requests I'll do my best to help you out.

[ryarod]

Thanks, I will try. And by all means, you are welcome, Good Sir!

Incidentally, I do have a question- is it possible to do motions like this with a long chain? Or are these maneuvers doable only with rope?

[fullfreydog]

I've played with sash chain before, and while it's possible to control... it hurts.

So yeah, you could use thin chain but it's uncomfortable and harder to use. Wouldn't try a neck wrap with the stuff, for sure.

[chiuchi]

this is cool. ive started to practice rope dart and this will help me a lot. my arm hurts T-T

thnks

[Keabeer18]

Brilliant mate.. I do a little rope dart as well and I'm impressed at your video. Nothing like step by step tutorials plus I learnt a new variation on a trick I knew so I'm quite happy too. Keep it up

[fullfreydog]

Thank you. I was beginning to wonder if I'd started out too simple with the tricks.

I'll put one up showing my favorite neck wrap soon.
