      Another big love moment from me for this community, in the last week I have had an amazingly generous offer made to me and my family from a real stand up guy, and there is another guy out there looking to help us out also. Take a bow LandoCal126 and Derivative666, you guys are owed pizza and beer by the Trons if we make it out to NYC in October.

      Edit: Forgot the mad man MadMonday himself, who is still owed pizza and beer from an old favour he did us….man the NYC trip is going to need a serious Pizza and beer budget  😉

              I got my Shodan acknowledget yesterday, so now I officially have Shodan in my current style. (won't be changing styles  anymore) Took 4 years to achieve this.

                    Well done (but I am still a little mystified)…..

                      What is mystified in this. I ask 'cause this all is simple to me, so I may overlook something.

                        Karate is feckin Karate to a layman like me.  No idea that there were different styles, and I would not recognise a Shodan or non-Shodan if it broke my nose.  But that matters not, I am sure I could mystify you about the intricacies of the different methods of fly fishing or cricket which are second nature to me…

                            Yep it's about styles and that they do not recognize grades of each other automatically. This can also happen inside of one style but if you belong to a different organization.

                            There are huge amount of styles.(lets say probably hundreds, if tiniest ones are taken in count too) Shortly, one can draw lineage from each to one of the 3 old Okinawan styles.

                                as in Kill Bill, I don't think so 😉

                                Though it is certainly possible to hit very powerfully from a very short distance. Even from 3" distance. You just don't use only your hand but whole bodys momentum.
