    In theory it makes sense because it adds a certain "aliveness" to the training, in reality, unless you use some serious springs that are VERY h ard to bend and come back at you very fast and hard, it becomes an inferior training aparatus to the standard fixed arm wooden dummy.
    The only one I liked was one in which the arms were hard and ridged but had springs attached to the back that allowed you to pull the arm up or down (only up or down) and the spring was pretty taught and snapped back nice and fast, if you weren't careful, you would eat it.

    I'll say that some individuals who have used the spring loaded arms have lost quite a few teeth and received injury to their chin and mouth area. There is a reason it isn't on the market anymore: Product liability!

    Those must have been good springs cause the ones I have used lack some serious chi !!
    LOL !
    Most of them are too light and wimpy, you need ones that are basically very stiff and require a good deal of effort to "bend".

    If one uses the body, and not the arm and shoulder strength, they're all easy to bend!

    LOL, good point !
    But I am sure you have seen and felt some of those "wimpy" ones, they do more harm than good.

    I do not have much use to talk over the internet to a person who is repeating questions as if they were a zoetic MukYanJong. So, unless you have some smarter additional questions to provoke a conversation I find interesting enough to give an answer beyond my first post in this thread, consider this my last post on the subject.

    I think you are looking for something which cannot be found on the internet. What that is, exactly, isn't something of which I know or with which I can help you.
