I saw this link on the pad holding thread, and this may be the greatest thing for traditional artists in a long time. This thing allows you to train self defense, all out. This takes away the whole 'too deadly' argument.
Now, I know this may become a can of worms, but train this and you're still not going to beat a fighter. A fighter simply trains harder, and trains in a more alive manner. He has someone throwing full bore at him.
However, the majority of people who do martial arts, don't really want to fight. Thay want to learn some realistic self defense without getting beat up themselves. This thing looks like it may be an answer to that problem.
