A sad howl...

I'm in

Beautiful! I´m looking forwad to our dance 

Btw, today I ordered the tickets to LA...

I personally like it how it is: Two days for the Tribal. These are very special days for me! The only change I would like to see is that instead of two days, we would fight three days 
Woof!

Nice to see that so many Fighters will come again to the Gathering 
I wish everybody a safe trip to Bern. I´m looking forward to see my brothers soon again!

WOOF!

I'm looking forward to see my brothers again 

WOOF!!

I would like to thank everybody who made this weekend so special!

To all the Fighters: It was a great honor to be out there with you!!

To all the Fighters who gave me the honor to dance with them: Thank you so much! I learned so much from you!

To Guro Crafty and pretty kitty: I can not put in words how grateful I am that you give me/us the oppertunity to go out there and fight at a Gathering! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!

WOOF!
Gong Fu Dog

I would also like to thank everybody!
What a beautiful weekend!!!

Woof!
Gong Fu Dog

I do it to pick up chicks.

 

Dog Sigi gave me a back up copy of his fighter registration form tonight.

Great!!

Rumor has it that one of them is fresh back from China with some fresh ideas to try out , , ,

But that one is on the list...

I'm talking about Sinatra Dog and Dog Sigi Fischer ( He is from Cro Dog's Clan)...

I wish all my Brothers in Canada a beautiful Gathering, with lots of good fights and no injuries!
Woof!!

By now three German Fighters will attend the Gathering...

Woof!

C-Gong Fu, is it to early to ask for a fight? single stick vs your tri-staff? This is the wrestling coach from Ohio btw.

My friend, it is never to early to ask for a fight 
As a matter of fact I got already a couple of brothers on my dancecard....
To cut it short, for sure my brother I would love to dance with you!

A BIG WOOF from Germany

Guro Crafty, thanks for the Link.

I always go to the Doctor...I don't wanna get an infection like a friend of mine. Besides that, lots of Ice and taping works for me quite well...at least my ear is not so bad 

My bad.  It must be on the DBMA Association forum 

Which is, by the way, pretty cool! Lots of information...
Everybody should join the DBMA Association forum 

Point Dog, thanks a lot for that history lesson...verry interesting!

Here is the Clip from the Gathering

I got no Idea where you can get one...but if you find one, please let me know.

C-Spartan Dog, I will try to cut it short:
The name of the General is Qi Jiguang. In his book he describes which criteria he used for his troops:
-age
-body type (height and strength)
-character(he calls them "bloodthirsty)

Some examples: A guy who is forty years old will be healthy and will still have some strength, but his agility is not the best anymore. So it would make no sense to give him a "Round-Shield", where he should be kneeing most of the times, crouching on the battlefield, and than move fast as lighting...
A young guy will not have the strength to carry a heavy long pole weapon the whole time and also fight with it...
Soldies which are bloodthirsty should fight with short weapons...

In Chinese Martial Arts the body type was always an important factor for choosing the right weapon:
Short and powerful-Some heavy double weapons or a heavy saber
Tall and not so strong-maybe a Spear
Tall and strong-a heavy long pole weapon like the Guan Dao
Short and weak-maybe a sword

I hope that helps a bit 


Woof!

C-Gong Fu my brother,   LMAO!!!!!! That's awesome! I can't believe that you would do that just for me! You know that secret fetish I have for Guys in tights shorts!

In Germany we say: Real love just exists between men  For you my brother I would do mostly anything....especially if I can hit you with my 3SS at the same time hahahahahahahaha 

Dog Terry, actually there is no blade at the end. Just in some movies they use a blade 

It is "just" a pointy piece of steel which is thicker, and so also heavier, than the other pieces of the whip. So it is mainly a flexible impact weapon. And I'm planning to use it like an impact weapon. For sure the weapon will loose a lot of it's potential if it is build just out of Rattan...still I wanna give it a try!

For sure my friend, it will be a honor for me to dance with you using this weapon!

I'm planning to use a Chinese nine section whip at the next Gathering. I promised Crossover Dog to bring a different weapon...

Never make a commitments for something that no have little, or no intentions in fulfilling. Your word, whether verbal or written is the measure of you!

I like that! This is how it is supposed to be!

What I don't get is that these guys always have so nice excuses...If they would at least be honest and say whats up, it would be all good for me!

I thought C-Gong Fu Dog did a fine job of integrating into his fighting the 3SS ideas that we worked only the day before.  As he has time to bubble and ferment inside with them and the experience of the Gg with them, I look for his game to move forward nicely.  Similarly I look for good things out of him in Kali Tudo  

Thanks a lot for your kind words! Like you say, my head is full of ideas right now, and I will do my best to become better and better with that weapon. And for sure I will also try to become better with other Chinese weapons 

I´m looking forward to the next Gathering
