no one cares

:O Sampson will whack you with his bamboo sword thing :O

hah ......

If i had to scream like that i would drop it lol

Can you scream something like " fuck you " ? or only the same exact words ?

I muted it and enjoyed it quite a bit. Dat speed.

dat scream :P it was ok other than that :3

If you get hit hard, does it hurt at all? Does it leave bruises or anything?

Also how heavy are those swords?

@Cancer
Dont need a stick :) I was a boxer for a long time prior to my surgery and since I am extremely competitive I needed a new combat sport so I transitioned to Kendo 5 years ago

You can say whatever u want, one girl told her opponent to 'fuck off' during a match. The judges didnt hear it tho or else it would have prob gotten her a penalty :P

i read that as porno video

it depends on age, sex and if you are using 1 or 2 swords

this was my friend the morning after practice :P

@Wink

yea that is the team Canada captain, I have fought him and his speed is just unreal

Cool video.

Need more protection on the arms XD

^ yea I agree, the gear really only protects the point zones BUT people miss :( my bruised ribs is proof of that :P

Urgh, used to do karate I really miss it. I don't have time to do it with a job and a half and going to kids events like church bible camp, dance class, softball, girl scouts... the list goes on. I love having kids but they drain you of time and money :( I barely get to work out anymore.
