Speed break demo movie with rebreakable boards version 3

This latest movie is a brief compilation of speed breaking techniques with Tiger Claw's black (extra strong) rebreakable boards including the jump spin back kick, mid-air palm strike, suspended board palm strike, round kick, jump front kick, elbow strike, and side kick. Except for the mid-air palm break in which the board is briefly tossed into the air, the other breaks use rope to suspend the boards in mid-air without any other object holding the boards.

funny how you're afraid of the boards when they come back at you XD

@nandoanalog Funny -- yes, definitely -- but also avoidance of the sharp inner board edges is necessary. I did not know the first few times I broke the boards this way that the fractured edges in the middle of the plastic board is VERY SHARP and swinging back, they did cut my hand and my right ankle. If you slow down or freeze frame the jump spin back kick, you will see that the bottom part of the board flips upward when it is broken with speed.

that looks like a lot of fun. is it?

@simplyslender11

yes ! For me, breaking boards is a very positive aspect of the martial arts since it teaches focus, accuracy, power, speed , and concentration. Thanks for the comment.

I just ordered a set with all 4 level boards. Just curious how hard are they to break? especialy the black one. It looks pretty easy for you.

In my earlier comment, I meant "wood board" (Ponderosa Pine #2 type) when I am referring to thickness described in inches.

I used to brake boards all the time in my wood shop, to show off. I need to get me some rebreakable boards I miss it.

@nandoanalog boards don't hit back, unless they are on a string

I find that for the first 200 breaks, the black board is equivalent to 2 one inch boards placed together without spacers. Now that I've used the black boards for awhile each board is now closer to the strength of two 3/4" boards put together. The red board is similar to one 1" wood board. The blue board is similar to a 1/3" wood board. As a warning, the plastic boards are harder on the body to break than wood since they have no "give". More bruising with the black boards.

My experience with rebreakable boards has been that they will work for thousands of breaks. None of my rebreakable boards have ever cracked or malfunctioned. I do take care to keep them at room temperature (not in the sun and not in freezing weather outside). However, they may become weaker after a few hundred breaks depending on the brand. I use the Tiger Claw brand mainly because I ordered them through amazon.
