Remind me never to participate in sports with you Neo. I like my face the way it is. /infopop/emoticons\icon_wink.gif

MY face could do with a bit of reshaping. /infopop/emoticons\icon_wink.gif
What do you charge for an hours worth of "therapy"?

Hmmm. Getting kicked in the face and body a lot. No wonder I took up sitting on my ass in front of my computer. /infopop/emoticons\icon_wink.gif

Punches are only allowed on the pody mass and with the vest they're moreor less useless.
Kicks are more powerful and you have a longer range.
Punches to the head are too dangerous. There're too many vital points. We learn them though.

Throws can go wrong. You can't throw me over your shoulder if I set my foot in front of yours. (yep, we learn such things)

Simple.

The person who wants to throw you stands in front of you with his back turned towards you.
All you have to do is 'hook' your foot in front of his'. He won't succeed in throwing you, he'll rather fall (and you will fall on him /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif )

Heheh, We don't spar with vests=) Punches pack allot of power and your arms are FAR faster than your legs. Over the shoulder throws are very rare. Far more common are sweeps and pull downs.

Blows to the head in Karate must be very controlled for if you draw blood, it's automatic disqualification.

The main problem in Taekwondo is the lack of blocks. When I joined up, they said that that arm blocks are useless VS kicks. Thats a load of BS. During the course of the next month, two of the blackbelts fractured their shins sparring with me.

But Taekwondo has done allot for my kicking technique. My sensei has black belts in both taekwondo and karate. And shit, He is FAST=)

He told you blocks yre useless against kicks? IMO that's not quite true. There ARE kick that can't be blocked. (i.e. 180° roundhouse [pandae-dolyo/dwit-dolyo]) I managed to break a 4cm wood with it.
But I learn blocks. I only use it for simple kicks from the side, I prefer evasing attacks (taekwondo gives speed, right).

Well I guess, it's just a question of preferences.
I prefer the distance to the enemy. IMO the chance is more little to get hurt by the enemy.
Others like Wing-Chung, Karate, Judo or Ju-Jutsu want to get very close to the enemy to fight him there.


And discussing which system is the best is useless. A person who has studied it for years WILL win agaist someone who has learnt the better system for only some months.
It's just the question how long and how intensive you train.
