    Warrior Mook Jong

    Hey Guys!

    Does anyone have any experience and input in regards to the "Warrior" Mook Jong?

    http://www.thewarrior.com/warriors/phase1.htm

    It looks attractive to me because I have a garage work-out area where space is a premium. This Jong has a unique free-standing base. I like the idea that I could shift it around out of the way when needed.

    Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

    Keith

    Looks like these guys are taking out the UK run competition! Very similar to the Immortal design, which is hard to get hold of these days...

    I have to say that I prefer the old 'wooden feel', but many of these modern pieces make superb weaponry aids.

    Those padded Warrior dummies are amazing. I left one at the school in Detroit. I love it because you can strike it full power with elbows, knees, and punches. I plan on getting another one when I go to Toronto where they're made.

    Pagoda Imports

    I nknow I've already put a plug in for Immortal, but my favourite supplier in the UK is Pagoda. I've met the owners a few times now and they have been through the wars with their design and delivery system but they generally really care about their products and I believe they deliver to the US also.

    Quite reasonably priced too, and the old 'Koo Sang' design if I'm not mistaken...

    Can I have thoughts on Muk Jong Kong free standing tripod leg dummy (http://www.woodendummy.net/mukjongkong/home.shtml)
    Apparently this company make amazing dummies but im not sure how stable the tripod legs would be

    Good for mobility and distance simple strikes...etc drill

    For me it is limited for the training because the based of these type of dummy mostly block the way of the foot work.

    IE: Cant get close enough for close body. Cant get proper "step in" foot work to issue Jing... basically cant give as "real" position as real life.... IMHO

    Thanks, Thats what I thought! Not much use if you can do your foot work, thats the whole point!

    If the height cant be adjusted to train your elbow levels as SLT its a waste of time a fixed height dummy is bad, unless you have an adustable floor ......the arms need to be level as well, very important both points are followed or all your previous training goes out the door... you end up offering extending 'levers' rather thana unfied structure attacking in rotation, while keeping elbows n arms working the idea ....attack

    Where in Ontario are you? I'll be doing a seminar at Sifu Ryan Kennedy's school in TO Dec. 1. He has two warrior dummies there.

    Thanks for the feedback Phil. That's what I was hoping someone would be able to tell me!
