Throwing weapons

[thro]

Hello!
What are names of throwing weapons in Chinese martial arts and is you could give some short description.

[PangQuan]

rope dart

iron claw

knife

it is even said that the japanese shuriken can be traced back to chinese origination.

many war fans had detachable small blades that were inserted within the fans many spines.

spear.

this is just a few to start you off. sorry so vague, leaving work.

Shizi - cobblestone: this term includes all pebbles and rocks up to the size of a cobblestone. Yep, I think something the size and weight of a cobblestone would make a good projectile. Or hammer. Or grinder.

YingBi (ZhuBi, ZhuZao) - Coin: This term includes all kinds of coins. They hurt, but they also might make the greedy pause, and if you're being chased by some old guy in China, he might shout "ZhuBi!" (Cast Money) in exclamation. Luckily enough, the character meaning "Wish" or "to offer good wishes" is pronounced Zhu! as well. ;)

Zhen - Needle: This term includes all needles up to the size of a knitting needle. If you'd rather call it a dart, I think the term is Biao.

XueQiu - Snowball: This applies to wintry climes only. Even better, use a BingQiu (Iceball) or a BingLiFang (ice cube.) The last are available everywhere, even the equator. :)

Have you got what it takes to be the deadliest shuriken slinger?

Remember the younger days when folding your own origami throwing stars and planning an ambush on friends was a thing? We quickly learned that for all the coolness that came with throwing ninja stars, we could never come close to the fabled shadow warriors themselves.

But for those who still hold a glimmer of hope of joining the shadow ranks, the 10th Igaryu shuriken-throwing contest might be just the thing for you. Preliminaries will be held at seven locations across Japan from September to December, culminating in an ultimate showdown of honed wits and skill in March next year.

▼ All compete to be the meanest slinger in the Old East.

Participants are to hurl five shuriken at a target situated a fair distance away from them, six meters (19.7 feet) for men and five meters for women to be exact. Aside from accuracy, proper etiquette and conduct are also factored into the final score. So while loudly invoking the names of forbidden ninjutsu while throwing stars might sound cool and all, the silent dignity befitting a ninja will score contestants more points.

An awesome shuriken made of solid gold will be bestowed on the grand champion, while the runner-up receives a silver star and third place gets a bronze one. And if you thought Japanese people have some kind of upper hand in throwing those stars, think again.

▼ Because last year’s competition saw a Brazilian beating 239 competitors to take home that sweet golden shuriken grand prize.

Participants must be at least 15 years of age, and each preliminary location only accommodates 50 people. From the preliminaries, only the top 40 of all participants will proceed to the final round held at the Ninja Museum of Igaryu. The 1,000 yen (US$9.10) registration fee includes insurance, which comes in handy in the unlikely case someone cuts themselves with shuriken.

The preliminaries will be held as follows:

2 September – Abeno Harukas Kintetsu Main Store (Osaka-shi, Abeno-ku)
9 September – Inuyama Ninjutsu Dojo (Aichi Prefecture, Inuyama-shi)
14 October – Hizenyumekaido (Saga Prefecture, Ureshino-shi)
4 November – Ueda Shiritsu Museum (Nagano Prefecture, Ueda-shi)
2 December – Ninja Museum of Igaryu (Kyoto-shi, Shimogyo-ku)
9 December – Uesen Hakuho Plaza (Iga-shi, Ueno Higashi-cho)
16 December – Mie Terrace (Tokyo-to, Chuo-ku)

Since each location only holds a limited amount of people, prospective ninja should quickly write in directly to the Ninja Museum of Igaryu here to reserve their spots.

We foresee lots of candidates from Nara Prefecture’s awesome Ninja Academy taking part in this competition, but even if you aren’t a shadow warrior yet, why not give it a try? You might just unleash that inner ninja in you.
