[QUOTE=Hendrik;1246343]John,
Great dummy!
You still have it?[/QUOTE]
No, my Texas house doesn’t have garage. I let it to stay outdoor under the Texas sun and rain. Finally, I gave it to someone from Dallas. If I still have it, I would put up a picture. It was a nice piece of work. The chest area was covered by fur and leather outside of the rubber.
The body was telephone pole -> rubber -> leather -> fur
[QUOTE=LaRoux;1246254]Of course that is what the people who never spar full contact are going to say.[/QUOTE]
I spar full contact with no protection. Were you implying that I don’t? 
[QUOTE=Graham H;1246354]I spar full contact with no protection. Were you implying that I don’t? [/QUOTE]
yes he was, and so am I come to think of it 
feel free to post clips of the bare knuckle on protection fighting to prove us wrong though
[QUOTE=guy b.;1246279]Everyone does sparring surely?[/QUOTE]
you would hope so, however its amazing that all those cameras that are around when the forms are being done, and the chi sao steering wheel is being turned get majically turned off when the sparring happens
[QUOTE=Frost;1246357]yes he was, and so am I come to think of it

Likewise and BTW I don’t have to prove anything to you or anybody for that fact! My door is always open if people want to come and check me out! Not in a gay way though as I’m sure Glenn would like

Not magically. Filming or uploading clips of sparring is “not allowed”…

Im sure youve had many men come in your back door Graham!

how convenient is that…and its amazing that all these bickering lineages can agree to that commandment isn’t it when they can’t agree on anything else
…christ what is this the 18th century people are happy to show forms applications chi so etc but think their spirit will be stolen if a clip of action sparring is put out there:confused::eek::rolleyes:

Yes and the reason is, is because nobody can make themselves look as good in sparring as in the forms or chi sau! If we all looked great and had no ego the net would be full of them. Nobody wants to look bad! It’s human nature.

Because one’s true ability will come out far more clearly in unrestricted sparring, and I suppose they don’t want to face the music.

So, you guys don’t allow sparring clips because you’re only good at forms and chi-sau? That’s disappointing.
[QUOTE=Graham H;1246368]I dunno, is it?[/QUOTE]
you are the one saying you spar full contact without protection so you are the one im asking for a clip from so are we going to see it? Lots make this claim its usually bull so forgive me for not believing without some proof…come to think it only 1 person I know of on this forum has ever posted a full contact no protection clip…and he was an mma guy

you use words like they and you guys…inferring you are somehow different…so have we seen clips of yourself using your art in sparring?

I haven’t seen any clips of you yet. You could be a 4ft dwarf with an orthopedic shoe!

When did I say WE don’t allow clips for that reason?

No. It is the PBVT organization that says they don’t allow filming their sparring or at least uploading the clips for some reason but that they do hard sparring all the time. I’m not a part of their organization. I have no other reason than that I simply don’t have clips up. But I’m also not making any claims about what I do.

Yes and for both of us it’s only words. Where is your clip? What would showing a clip of each other actually achieve? You don’t know how hard I can punch. You don’t know how I would deal with you. You have no idea of anything and yet you think a clip would give you some idea. Who would my opponent be? A training partner? A student? Some guy in the street? :rolleyes::rolleyes:
Silly man Frost!

Well you certainly do through your posts!!!

That’s Glenn…
When did I say WE don’t allow clips for that reason?
Well you said “nobody can”, “if we all”, and “nobody wants to”. If you’re not putting up clips either, then you’re included in your own generalization.
