Whats up,

Here is some serious BS karate for you. As a karate guy myself, I can't stand seeing this kind of crap promoted as the real thing...make sure to sign this fool's guestbook before you leave!

You do mean flaming you, right? Cause this is a pretty stupid post.

There are better ways to try increasing the hits on your website.

When I was a kid we knew a guy named Robby. My friend had a song about him. Tell me if you like it:

A robber robbed the Robby ranch and ran away with Robby.

Standard stupid kiddie sport karate. Stand on your back foot and try to touch your opponent with your front foot so you can stay as far away as possible and hope your flailing limbs touch him first. Only thing worse is that new XMA garbage.

...guys like this are the reason karate people don't get much respect, and yet, homeboy robbie claims to be a "world champ". Ug.

so.... why dont they use their hands again?

They do use their hands for karate chops.

It looks like fencing... with your feet.

I see two guys hopping around on one leg with the other leg extended as they chase each other around. Then this Robbie kid pounces forward like a kitten to touch his opponent with both hands. That seems like a winning strategy to me!

For one, they're pathetic sissies that would get physically ruined in any remotely realistic situation. Secondly, most of the sport karate douche bags "fight" like that. Their strategy is to just try to keep their head out of reach while they drop their hands so that less of their torso is exposed. Then, they see who can lovetap the other first. You'll also notice a lot of retreating and back turning. They try to get the touch in first and run away, not to mention turning away since often their rules don't recognize any targets on the back.
