still can't get it to play? It's an avi, so it might need xvid or divx.

Maybe, but I don't think that kick was going to be stopped by some little old arms.

Nice name, btw. :eusa_hand jul!

That's the super secrect TKD Voltron/Thudercat technique.......it was developed to counter the _ing _ung chain punch of ultimate doom.

Your not alone DerAuslander. In drills if our partner drops guard we get to swing at em.

Yeah that kick definitly wasn't going to be stopped and he was going to be knocked out regardless. I'm just sayn it would've reduced the damage a bit if not a lot. He basically ate that kick to face/head.

That was sweet timing on spinning roundhouse fo sho tho.

Yea.....usually while were doing handwork with bags/those hand pads/each other, my instructor walks around with this paded bamboo type of rod. While he's taking his stroll he'll take random swings at our upper torso and head.

The guy is an awsome teacher though....ex marine, ex pd, all around combat oriented which is why I always wondered why TKD got such a bad rap. Then I saw a WTF sparring match. :5sigh:

I don't understand why North Korea needs a military. I thought Kim Il Jong could turn into a giant robot if the country were ever seriously threatened ?

Yes, but the soldiers are there to throw at Chuck Norris, there by giving the Jonger enough time to morph.
