Yo Ad or anyone else

Im not sure what the standard is like but if Wushu people fight it should be ok. We should at least go and watch.

So whos thinking of competing?

Im gonna be training alot (starting this thursday) for a tkd comp i have comin up soon, so if any wants to tag along with my training they are more than welcome. Im gonna work on fitness and kicking etc.

[dj]

I'm tempted.

The fighters looked pretty handy to me and the gloves are a bit off a put off, so it definately doesn't look like a stroll in the park.

But it would still be good to enter to get an idea of how we compare to others.

And yeah, i agree, if we dont enter it would be good to at least go down and watch.

Yeah i'm up for some extra training as well. Finished exams so if anyone wants to do any extra training any time give me a shout.

[kizz0]

Don't think I'm up for entering, but I'm up for the training, just finished my last exam today, gimme a shout when it's going down.

[Dan]

me and dave are gonna train a bit tommorow (Saterday) if anyone else wants to come.

As for watching the Sanshou comp ill prob be driving from mine, so if people live far away they can come stay at mine, then ill drive everyone down. (providing no more than 4 other people wanna go).

[Tom]

That looks cool, but I'd get demolished. I'm in no shape whatsoever for competitive fighting.
