|
|
So I was wandering around YouTube, and I found this!
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=xD--7SsQS6s
A demo done by a martial artist of poi being used as a defensive weapon. Oh, and unless I'm mistaken, he's using a set of PoiPoi cobras.  |

Yeah but seriously, who are you going to hurt with cobras, unless their super weighted hehehe!
Kill Bill 1 was the best one I seen, the little Japanese girl with the swinging ball and blade....best fight scene ever!!!

Kill Bill totaly rocks!
Edit: would have looked better with meteors though. I love the kick thing she does standing no the table, so cute! |

| I don't think it looks much like a weapon! He's just doing simple moves fast, no strikes or defensive actions. Oh well! |

| judo may not be a martial art in the eyes of "mattbassman" but it is fun when combined with karate. |
