How Tall Are You?

[GouRonin]

Jason, don't lie. I've seen you move and you can bring it. Don't sandbag these people.

 

[Baoquan]

Don't tell me he's one of those "Please be gentle..I'm a virgin!" bad-asses!!

 

[GouRonin]

I'm not sure what you mean. If you are asking if he is one of those guys who asks not to be hit hard then wallops you, no, he is not like that.

He's one of those guys who is all nice and smiley till he gets down to business. If I remember correctly I looked over at the instructor camp and he was beating his partner like it was the last beating he was going to be handing out. Then his partner promptly turned around and laid the same wallop back at him

Jason Farnsworth can move pretty darn good IMHO.

 

[Baoquan]

yeah, the second one. I have a buddy, who is incredibly humble about his abilities, but then wails on u (and he's not even trying).

Trnascript of a conversation before and after our first session:

HIM: You;ll have to forgive me, i'm a bit rusty. I haven't done this in a while.

ME: Thats okay, me either.

{Brief friendly bout ensues.)

Me: Ow. OW. OWW!!

He failed to mention the "while" he hadn't sparred in was the 3 month period since he was awarded 4th dan.

Im not sure how much 12 stones is in pounds. Someone find a website that changes it and find out. Cuz I have no idea.

[jfarnsworth]

Whoa, the only time that I've heard stones used for weight was in the world's strongest man contest on espn.

14 lbs, give or take. the site said 8 - 24 lbs per stone, but the usual measurement for men and horses was 14 lbs per stone.

Well, my 6' puts me above most of the people in my dojo, but as the techniques are about 50/50 in favour of tall/short it evens out in the long run.

 

[Master of Blades]
