yeah, after
30 years of CLF, you'd think i'd know the difference between a spear, staff, or escrima stick. I'm talking about
GRIP. and the possibility of losing your weapon. :confused::confused::confused:
If i'm holding a spear and start my stab and he hits my spear with reasonable force and my grip isn't proper, i can and have seen many people lose their spear from the lead hand because of the grip they used while stabbing.
however, mixed with my previous spear, staff and escrima training one thing is for sure, escrima taught me how NOT to lose my weapon, or i'd be dead. because of my escrima grip training you won't be able to knock a spear out of my hands now. so, i'm not talking anything other than the grip while using a spears stabbing motion.
so how often to you lube up your spear to imitate blood and simulate a combative situation to master the switching of hands while holding a lubed up spear? i'd LOVE LOVE LOVE to see a video of you or anyone doing this. it would be awesome.
