It is sad to see that so many traditional martial artist are not willing to adapt. Self defense is constantly evolving and weapons are evolving as well. Lee is right, firearms have rendered most weapons obsolete, but that hasn't stopped the evolution of a weapon such as the nunchaku. If you guys still train in bare feet, wearing a gi, in a dojo with a cushy carpeted or padded floor you don't have a right to comment. You are living in fantasy land and not the world of modern self defense!

@TruckeeLocal (I am not a student at a martial art dojo. I learned nunchaku from my father, who used them for exercise and occasionally streetfighting) Your idea of "self defense" is misplaced. Lee Barden claims that prochux are a superior WEAPON to the traditional Okinawan nunchaku, then illustrates his point by twirling, tossing and showing them of. That is not a WEAPON. Obviously, prochux are optimized for fancy tricks, whereas nun chucks are weapons, designed to break bones and force joints.

yea he does realise that to be able to turn the chucks he just needs some traditional wood and cord ones...

I use long nunchaku just fine

Maybe I'm an amateur, but slowly come to the same conclusion as to the long-chain nunchaku!

Your black belt should be taken away for naming your company black and blue productions in the same breath as saying you teach kids positive martial arts.

[IamHammon]

You cannot perform the same plethora of joint locks as you can with a longer rope nunchucka. Not only that but you use your fingers to twirl and admit that you do not "use" your nunchucks in a manner consistent with self-defense. You have essentially created a dancing device, not a self-defense mechanism and katas are designed to demonstrate one's ability at defending themselves with a particular weapon.

[IamHammon]

This transformation came about to liken forms and katas to the faster paced world around us, you cannot choke in the same manner as you can with a longer rope say 4-6 inches, nor can you use them for the plethora of joint locks. I can change where I hold on the chuck in an instant, my favorite use is to tuck one chuck under the arm in the ready position and hold the end of the other chuck and pop it out extremely fast and accurately leaving a small indentation on a 4x4 post, length matters.

I like my U swivel chucks... been using them since I was 5 and used to get punished for stealing them to use because they were my mothers. My father is Rex Mitchell who taught Song Moo Kwan after learning in Thailand with a 4 belt system, white blue brown and black, my mother is Shirley Mitchell ranked in the back of Black Belt magazine #1 for 3 years in the PNW, tradition exist for a reason, they could have used this design long ago, you use your fingers and admit this style is not to protect.

Wait.... did he say these are good to use as weapons? Or are the dinochucks better for weapons?

[DMItracks]

@TruckeeLocal does the word tradition hold any meaning to you?
