Sorry, could not resist a reply to your comment by I totally, 100% agree with you! (I mean, look at the bend on the shinai!!-ouch!!).

hmmm.......
:(... I not a subscriber to 'kendo-world' because i'm still a student and dont think can afford the cost to subscribe, but I am very curious about whats on the back of the magazine.
:(:(:(:(:(:(:(

It's NOT that expensive to subscribe to Kendo World! One or two nights out on the town. You are guaranteed more than your moneys worth and you wont end up with a hangover.

Holy ****!
The back is a photo featuring a frozen frame of tsuki.
The shinai bends so much!!
And then my sensei said, "let's all have a session on tsuki-waza!"

Alex and Hamish,

Is it available as a poster. Many people who have seen it where I train expressed the I want one for my bedroom/living room/office/dojo wall etc.

Also, Kendo Jidai and other Japanese Kendo/Budo magazines feature many action photos from competitions etc - is it possible to have a section in Kendo World of such photos ?

I wonder if that shinai broke.

[Alex]

Indeed, it would make a great poster! It is not our photograph, but was submitted by a subscriber in the States. Hamish and I are thinking about having a Funny Photo section in the mag, but I reckon it would take some doing to better this one!

We will look into the poster issue.

:eek:
