  • whats up with the trippy rainbow-bo? xp

  • His instruction leaves a lot to be desired; his slow demonstration does not match what he did at regular speed. At slow speed the bo staff reverses direction--big no no! When he does it at regular speed it does not reverse direction.

  • @idiot1jerk2face3 Rain-bo is probably easier to say....

  • Hey can someone explain to me the horizantal spin, the way he explained it was different from when he did it at regular speed

  • when the staff got longer i was like wth

  • @fauteupb I understand your point. I would certainly not want to be hit, full tilt, with a solid oak quarterstaff. However, even with a light aluminum weapon location of the blow can mean a lot more than the force behind it. Also, during an engagement one might not have the room or time to swing full on. Lastly, and I think most important in this case, it's probably just a practice bo. I'm with you, though, I only practice with real weight weapons.

  • @Creativesucks The sticks I've been hit with are about four pounds of solid white oak, and we put more into it than sissy wrist flicks. :-/

  • Can I please ask where you got that Bo from? I love the color scheme of it. I would like to invest in one!

  • @fauteupb Have you never been hit with a stick before?

  • Your a bit flashy

  • How in the holy hell is one little wrist flick with a tinfoil covered toothpick a "powerful attack"?
