Nah, riding is fine. It's the clockwise twist of my right hand/wrist that's screwed.
Many thanks for replying Fudo
That's a heartening story, I appreciate the time you've spent explaining your own experience.
Did you have the op or simply became used to the discomfort?

After almost 12 months of struggling with a screwed right wrist I finally have news that i've suffered a TFCC cartilage tear. It's taken me a few weeks to get my head round the fact it could be the...
WKC15 - damn my typo
There's the kendo ideal, then there's the fear of getting vilified by the local press/public back in Korea/Japan. Human nature which results in what you saw yesterday. Its one thing disappointing a...
Be careful of us Europeans.. we're an odd bunch.
The thought of one in europe makes me moist.
I'm at work so i cant watch the vids.. I've had it explained to me that kiriotoshi is more successful when cutting with the lower muscles of the arm (big cutting action) compared to a 'wristy cut'. ...

Hello.. I'm having difficulty getting through to someone regarding my subscription. I've used 'contact us' but i've had no reply (insure if its a wonky email my side). Who should I PM directly?
No one has mentioned that breaking in new bogu is horrible. Armour usually 'beds in' after a few months of hard sweat and head beatings. Wearing for 30 mins at home while swinging a shinai wont do...
I'm tall and have copped a few nasty ones in the past.... right on the wind pipe which has taken my breath away. The problem is that lesser skilled opponents are unable to tskui in an up-down motion...
I found this if its any help? It at least tells you the venue.

Wear kendo bruises with pride... you've earned them!
I like this series of four DVDs. They are very clear and you can view each technique from three different angles. Hidekatsu Inoue has also got an ace kiai :P
The only downer is they are pricey:...
hmmm.. spotted dick... with loads of custard. *yum* :cheerful:
Arse... my apologies. I wasnt paying due attention last night... I think I was half asleep! :(

Its hard to see if it is BKA's Davis sensei....Ive tried zooming into the vid but the shinpan on the right hand side is mostly off camera. It could be him.
I heard we were knocked out by the US after the pool stage.
