Nothing wrong with the price. Headgear with cages are often more expensive. Hell, if I bought a face cage by itself, I'm looking at an extra $50 for the cage only. (http://store.martialartsmart.net/spareqfaccag.html). That doesn't even count the $36 to cover an excellent head gear piece. (http://store.martialartsmart.net/102promax.html)

BTW, This one here is $50 (http://store.martialartsmart.net/10220.html) and it's similar to the one you posted.

My bad, I thought the one I linked kinda looked like Vader from Star Wars.

Thanks for spoiling my day! :mad: ;)

Chi is what gives a kung fu warrior his power. It is a mystical energy field that surrounds us, penetrates us, and holds the universe together.

Don't take too much pride in this MMA crosstraining terror that you've created. The ability to submit an opponent in the ring is insignificant next to the power of chi.

And to all the MMA/kickboxing/boxing people out there:
I find your lack of faith...DISTURBING!!

Obi-Wan would never call something natural "mystical."

the force is supposed to be natural, ain't it? its the energy field generated by all living things.

field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together.

Be honest with ya, I didn't even look at the price. I was looking for a movie on Hohan Soken, this thing popped up in the Clearance Box, so I said, HEY! That looks like Darth Vader! It'll sell TONS!

It's ugly, so we make fun of it.

Besides, who wears headgear?

I woudn't get that headgear if I were you. Back in the 80s here in Singapore, during leitai cometition before sanshou became mainstream.

Some tai chi/Hsing I guy countered a guys punch and return the energy back with a plam strike to the face guard. Broke the guard and the pieces went straight into the opponents face and stayed there. Had to go for reconstructive surgery as a result.

I kid you not on this, I laugh at the idea that it was even possible till I saw the old vid of it.
