we've just completed a distribution contract with the company which produces the Nunchuka training DVD in order to bring the price right down and promote the sport in the UK.
We've also recently increased our range and lowered our prices on Nunchuka, so now it's time to do your bit and buy buy buy

I just bought the dvd pack with the nunchuk for £13.50 its an absolute bargin. the nunchuck is a far too short for myself, but if your new to nunchuka and want to practice along with the dvd it is useful. i got it for friends to try out and if the kids want a go
however the dvd alone is worth the price so i strongly advise buying it! im going to have to buy a couple more sets of nunchuk's tho as it has brought some intresting points to my attention about the length of the chains and sticks and performance of the practicing nunchuka.

LOVE IT! mad on chuks and i love practising witht them. sadly if there is chuks in the mainstream, like in the 70's when bruce was the man in enter the dragon, people may abuse them.
but im all behind this tho.

They've gotta be fighting something, if not swords or chucks it'll be something else. I say enjoy it, be safe, have fun (and be responsible - that means not giving them to your kids in my books but that's your choice lol)
Is the DVD really that good? I've got me a few pairs of chucks, foam and wood, wouldn't mind learning how to use em

its not that hard to be honest. there are a few good guides out there. to be honest you HAVE to do it you can get an idea from reading but you really need to play with them.

Yeah, I know that, it's like any other physical act, watching it done can only give you a vague idea at best how it's supposed to be lol. (Watched wing chun demos for years before I found a class and got a rude awakening lol) But it always helps if you can see something done in slow motion with an explanation of what's going on
How long's the DVD run for? What does it cover?

Any idea of the chain length on the 10" Nunckaku? I personal prefer 12", (oooh matron), with a cord link, but chain is better for defense, & I like the look of the white wood pair, Martin.
