That’s a toughie. I’ve only sparred in the school and at tournaments so far. I’ve never full out sparred outside. But, I would go for grass and wear clothes I didn’t mind getting all green. Besides, getting sand out of your hair is no picnic.

Grass all the way. Sand seems softer… 'til you land hard. And you lose traction in the sand.

Speaking from experience…

A cow pastures and polo fields are real soft. Sometimes they even have some extra cushining.

grass is good

Training on grass is good, it is harder to do kick combo, but alot softer to land when doing a breakfall. It is a good exeperience to train on different grounds, since a real fight can occur anyway.
