Gene, been talking this tournament up at my kwoon for the past couple of years. I may actually get a small group together to come next year.

xcakid returns to ca!

That would be cool. I’ve missed our annual gatherings as I haven’t been going to Jimmy Wong’s these past few years.

Maybe you could compete in this: Iron Crotch 2013 :smiley:

Are you coming to the one in Houston in a few weeks. I will be at that one.

Iron comp, sure, let me go and get a viagra prescription first. :smiley: hahahah

I’m not going to Houston this year sadly

You’ll just have to gather the forum peeps at some breastaurant without me. :frowning: Post pix. :wink:

And if you practiced Iron Crotch, you wouldn’t need Viagra. Read my first article on said topic. :cool:

And now, back on topic with some more vids:

Well, I probably won’t have time to go for beers anyways. I have to work that Friday and will be flying in late afternoon/early evening. Have to help my Sifu with his seminar. Also not competing anymore. I am more than likely going to be judging instead. Too old to be jumping around, getting in low stances (ow my knees) and trying to kick people in the head in sparring. I will be 45 in Aug. I still want to be involved in tourneys, so judging it is.

What? No time for breastaurants?

That’s a shame that our little tradition is dying. We must have failed in training our next generation of forum member breastaurant aficionados. :frowning:

Tai Chi ( taiji ) and Kung Fu Tai Chi in the park

Here is a video newly posted on You Tube from a group Tai Chi ( taiji ) gathering on a beautiful day in June 2013, in Cesar Chavez park, San Jose, CA.

This is the group’s 2nd annual Kung Fu – Tai Chi day celebration where there was over 300 people practicing in the park at the same time! The practice was a part of a larger day-long event with different vendors and activities. This looks like a lot of fun!
