How adorable! Shinai are lighter and harder hitting than our weapons and generally don't outlast a good Bel stick used at the same level. *shruuuug*

Texas is full of awesome foamfighters.

i have done some fighting with foam and like it very much however, i do not have any foam weapons nor do i know how to make them i would love to fight with foam otherwise if someone could give me a quick run down of when and where and a weapon or 2 i could borrow to fight with until i am able to buy/make my own i would be happy to come give you all a run for your money

There's some excellent guides to making your own weapons, of various types, on the Belegarth wiki at this address.

"Adorable" whatever kid.

Yes they are lighter...only an asshat doesn't add weight to a shinai. If you don't do this they are pointless as a weapon simulator.

Harder hitting is better and they last just fine...mine survive two sessions a week plus multiple national competitions means they last roughly a year...which ain't bad.

Well, OK then...that sure showed me. I guess this forum only applies to foam swords then...my bad, sorry "bout that.

[Arrakis]

Dang, *, ain't this the Bel boards? I thought we could still take sarcasm around here.

PS: Yeah, this is a foamfighting sport's boards; we're naturally predisposed to like foam best.

[theancient]

yeah...I'm guessin' you missed the sarcasm as well.
