Martial Olympics?

[ScottUK]

dubbed by some as "the Olympics for Martial Artists"...http://maf-uk.co.uk/images/The%20MA%20Games/index.html

THey have a traditional Japanese weapons section. Might have to get my Union Flag hakama and neon bokuto out...

[Harry Jones]

Awesome! Gok Wan is a presenter!!

[Ken Morgan]

Gotta get some practice in on twirling the sword I'm thinking. Standard noto just will not do...

[Harry Jones]

Actually perhaps I am doing Gok Wan a disservice. Perhaps he is also an eminent martial artists as well as the presenter of tacky women's make over shows. or perhaps the conversation in the PR department went something like this
"Who shall we get to host the event, we definitely need a hot lady Martial Artist, you know someone who's like tough but hot but tough but hot yeah! and someone off the tele. I know, how about that Chineesee bloke they all do kung fu and stuff.."

[Harry Jones]

BTW I'm totally up for entering the team kata competition.....

[ScottUK]

Let's do this. The KW Synchronised Iai/Jo Team. :D

[Peter West]

whose timing would you... we... ... you use?

I'm out. I can't do anything the same speed twice, let alone in someone else's timing.. Scott, Harry, who else. How many in a team?

[Peter West]

No rabbits...

Please

[ScottUK]

Bloody hell, we'll have to work to the slowest person - Dave G? :D

[Harry Jones]

You miss the point we will be doing it to music. So will will take the timing of whatever track we choose.

Suggestions anyone.

Eye of the Tiger?
Enya?

[Neil Gendzwill]

Barry Manilow for you lot.

[Peter West]

Tainted Love (Manson version)

[Oroshi]

BGM for Scott (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEzh10_xoqw).

[pgsmith]

I think a bunch of y'all should enter both individual and team kata. Then go out and do seitei exactly as if it were tai kai. That would boggle their teensy little minds, and they'd have no clue what to do with you lot! I think it would be lots of fun! :D

P.S. If you HAVE to use music, I suggest "Who Made Who" by ACDC

[willszenith]

syncro event eh, hmmm

What was it?

[chidokan]

theres a musical weapon division....???? :ermm:
Oh! I Know...!!!

LOOK OUT!!! HE HAS A TROMBONE!!!!

ooh, look how smoothly he does noto with that slider....

I did judge one of these once for a laugh, and a guy who repeatedly slapped nuchakus between his legs is what sticks in my memory... it turned out they were silvered foam, but every guy in the audience winced at each slap in the groin... (I wish I had substituted them for real ones... now that would have been.... entertaining....:evil:)

[satsumaruma]

well count me in.

May I suggest either

the birdie song OR I'm too sexy


You can see it now....Scotty or Harry walking forward to the delicious vocal of..."I'm too sexy for my shirt, too sexy for my shirt, too sexy it huh-uuurts"

"they are bushi, you know what I mean
and they do their little stuff on the shiai scene.
on the shiai, on the shiai scene
they strut their little stuff on the shiai scene"

duuuuuuuuuuh der der derrrr.

" and i'm ,too sexy for this sword,
too sexy for this sword. too sexy it hurts
And i;m, too sexy for this taikai, no way i'm shinden prancing"

"I am bushi you know what I mean
and I do my lttle thing in the dojo scene"

outro to fade

It has to be "Hit Me Baby One More Time." I want to see Scott dressed like Britney, that'll get you on Britain's Got Talent!

[still learning]

...see Scott dressed like Britney, ...!

What!? Bald and wearing no panties? Or in a schoolgirl outfit?
Perhaps a leather basque and shorts combination..........

I am shuddering at the very thought[s].........
.........[especially if he keeps the beard!]

Well,


of course it all depends on who wants to toss the dwarf and what kind of technique they have.

Too much right arm in the tossing action and it is all over too soon - and aim and distance go out of the window.

Not enough effort put into it and all you get is a feeble sputtering mess.

But get it just right, just enough grip; nice smooth tossing action and then sit back and watch the resulting projection streak effortlessly through the air!
:scared:

How did that grab Ya??
