He even has vids up of him doing PH tourneys. I think the presentation is fine. The repacking is okay since he has his own spin on things. But I don't see anything revolutionary, probably because I've been doing CMA for so long. <BR/><BR/>AS you say, some of it is questionable with attitude thrown in so the bluster can overshadow the weaknesses.Dave Chesserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01427931253247227806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201222618566180765.post-38141814577681978012008-09-18T11:46:00.000-07:002008-09-18T11:46:00.000-07:00A version of that elbow technique was taught to me...A version of that elbow technique was taught to me by the guy who gave me a wing chun/reality system crash course pre-taekwondo about 4 years ago. <BR/><BR/>I was taught to use it against a hook punch. When you do that it causes pain and also opens the attacker up for a quick back fist to the nose. You can also flow into a block if they are fast with their second hand. <BR/><BR/>I never even thought about slipping to the outside of a punch on this one and may have to play around!BSMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13599662252662686373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201222618566180765.post-62647186086732602792008-09-18T11:45:00.000-07:002008-09-18T11:45:00.000-07:00Yeah, I dig their presentation.

No slaves to tradition.<BR/><BR/>Yeah, I'm not too crazy about that second technique, but there's a lot of shit that other, established styles try to pass off as a good technique to use on the street, too. I've seen things in karate, tae kwon do, judo, kung fu that would get you killed if you tried them in a real brawl.<BR/><BR/>What they're teaching has a strong Filipino/Indonesian/Jeet Kune Do flavor. I gotta give them a lot of credit.Sean C. Ledighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02047613071520466178noreply@blogger.com
