By a couple of untrained dudes just handling training tools, talking about the history and usage, understanding how each moves work and what they achieve, then moving onto real weapons the development and appreciation is real. Super good at conveying the seriousness of these things.

I used to do nunchuck competitions when I was a kid, still got the skills with them to this day. They are fun. I prefer the chain to be a lot shorter than what the training chucks use, you can do cool tricks like spinning them around your wrist with a shorter chain. Attacks are faster with a shorter chain too, having a longer chain like the training chucks your using kinda feels having input lag on everything.
@andrewsadler202 5 жыл бұрын
shorter chains are literally used for tricking. Traditionally, they were used to flail at rice and other grains, to beat the husks off the edible parts. The longer chain gave more mechanical advantage for force delivered on contact of the strike. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy tricking as well, but the longer chain is the traditional form that would have been used in actual fighting. *based on Okinawan karate, as opposed to similar weapons that were used in China*

The story that I was told, in the past Okinawa was a separate country that had dealings with both China and Japan, but mostly from China and China taught the Okinawans kung fu from the South which includes Crane style. Years later Japan invade Okinawa and makes it part of Japan. As part of the transition the Japanese government takes away all bladed weaponry from the Okinawans in order to avoid any uprising. That's when the Okinawans turn to farm tools as weaponry to defend themselves from the Japanese. In weapon martial arts based from Okinawa people train with bo staff , kitchen knives, nunchakus, oars, etc...

the japanese nunchaku was developed by modifying a flailing whip used for taking off the husk from grains. combat technique-wise it's similar to a multi section staff, but more compact and thus portable. you can think of it as a western flail weapon but instead of a ball and handle combination, it's two handles. the flourishing nature serves two purposes: one is to build momentum to hit harder; the other is to launch surprise attacks from unexpected angles. a longer link creates more momentum and creates harder strikes, similar to how a whip works, and a shorter link travels faster making for better flourishes

Anyone interested in learning more should try taking a look at Kobudo, the lesser known "sister" of karate. Karate focuses more on the hand-to-hand fighting, while kobudo is the formalized weapons art. Matayoshi Kobudo is a cool varient that exists to this day! They've got a form known as "Kata no Nunchaku", which is a pretty apt name.

hey there, I'm a cho dan in soo bahk do moo duk kwan. I also used to be part of a weapons demo team and would demo nun chunks. It is not possible to state how dangerous even the "training" chucks are, including the foam. I would discourage anyone from getting them. however if you do, stick to foam. there are light wooden ones, and some with flashy tape for demos because it looks cool. HOWEVER you do not need to hit yourself or anyone else to cause serious injury. I have seen someone use a light pair of hollow wooden chucks attached with string, GRAZE their ankle while practicing. The result was a nasty gash with a nice amount of blood. The look in Brians eyes with the flea market chucks sold me that he would not consider playing with such a thing. But I do feel it necessary to post here and discourage anyone from purchasing any. If you do, be safe, check your local laws, and stick to foam. No one wants to be the guy who lost part of an ear because they thought they were playing with a toy.

Im only a 1st degree in goju ryu karate but also a national competitor, In my opinion the only way people can learn is through bruises and injuries, you only smash your ribs with a tonfa or have your fingers busted by a bow-staff so many times before you learn to be carefull. As long as its not life threatening (In this case that would include wearing eye protection just to be safe) try it out and learn as much as you can from your mistakes

@@johnhoward7069 True, just for clarity, My intent was to address individuals who may watch this and think it would be fun to just pick up some chucks; Not for individuals seeking to be instructed in a proper environment. For those who are interested, weapons are typically provided by, or purchased through the organization or individual your instructor works for. In the event that you are provided a weapon of your own (outside of those provided in introductory training) , your instructor will typically recommend or provide one safe for your skill level for personal at home use in order to let you practice in your free time outside of the training area. I would not advise anyone to purchase a weapon for themselves outside of this or similar circumstances. Minor to moderate injury is to be expected and does a fairly good job of driving your instructors points home.

The reason nun chucks are "deadlier" is you're able to dump more energy into a nun chuck strike vs a similar stick. Simply in baseball you wear batters glove because of the recoil, the hit travels back to your hands and can cause pain. Not to mention the flexible link better allows for follow through in addition to mitigating recoil.

One of my friends decided to help himself to them one day and gave it his best shot, while I was out of the room. He tried to catch it under his arm but it went right under his armpit , came back up and cracked him on the back of the head. I came back to him lying out cold on my bedroom floor!

WARNING ⚠️ LONG READING ABOUT THIS TOPIC FOR THOSE INTERESTED • I’m a purple belt white stipe in karate but don’t practise anymore, but when I did, the branch I was training in did disarming and weaponry training (I.e. how to take a gun or knife off someone trying to attack you, how to block a dagger strike and things of that sort). The nunchucks that we used were proper wooden ones but had pool noodle like sleeves around them and were joined by a fairly hefty chain (not too dissimilar to the ones Jason brought out towards the end), we used these to practice blocking from “Hammer Strike” type attacks and attaching as seen in this video. The “leading leg stance” as Brian was calling it is called Kumite Sutansu (Koo-mEEtA) meaning grappling hands stance, which is the fighting stance for any engagement in karate. The stance that Jason sowed off around the ten minute mark I believe is Kiba-dachi or Horse Stance which is when the feet should be shoulder width apart with the thighs at about a 45° angle and the shoulders positioned over the heels, and with feet parallel, this is almost entirely used in grading performances.

With the armpit trap, stick your elbow out when you strike, this will keep your elbow out of harm's way and leave a catcher's mitt for the nunchaku to return to, imagine your casting a fishing pole, that's the wrist movement you want. If you shorten the cord, the nunchaku become tighter in how they handle and much speedier, this is especially true for 12'' sticks with a four inch cord. You can also make each stick 6 inches long and have a 6 inch cord and they still will be effective. Great vid guys.

I started martial arts when I was 15 in 1973, and when learning chuks the first thing you have to get past is when doing that front snap out and back under your arm, you nail your elbow *a lot* before you learn to push it out until it's back under your arm.

The story I always heard was that this weapon was originated by the three section staff. The _supposed_ story is that a guards staff broke into three pieces during combat and he fastened them back together with chain. The story of how a three section staff became nunchuck is equally "believable", but I've heard that another guard who practiced with the three section staff simply took off one of the sections because he was tired of being hit with his own weapon.

I have practised Shorin Ryu Seibukan Karate and Kobudo for roughly ten years and my Sensei always told us that the weapons we trained with (mainly Bo and Sai) were actually most likely farming tools or just general stuff lying around (like the Bo is basically just a Quarter Staff). And the part with only nobility practising martial arts isn´t all true either, so the style I practised comes from Okinawa and is actually a fairly young style (from around 1930) but it draws influences from two other styles from Okinawa which are a fair bit older and were not only practised by the nobility.

Originally, they were used to thresh rice. Some people used them as weapons. It's the Japanese equivalent of using a baseball bat. They were never used in a battle, because that would be stupid. If you were a medieval knight, would you take a baseball bat instead of a sword *or a mace or a polearm? No. They're cool though. *EDIT: I got called out, cause I only said sword

Yes, actually. You can't cut through armor, and historically, the way to defeat armor was blunt force trauma weapons like maces and war hammer.
@brodieknight772 5 жыл бұрын
@@FellsApprentice Yes, exactly. Maybe a baseball bat would be good in that case, but not nunchucks. And really this is about nunchucks. Nunchucks aren't rigid, and they would bounce right off of a proper hardened breastplate or helmet. The don't have the support or weight of an arm behind them, and they aren't nearly as heavy as a flail, so they would be worse than a sword against armour. At least you can attack weak spots like under the arm or the eye slit with a sword. Even with a baseball bat instead, you still wouldn't take that over a mace or a warhammer. But you did catch me there, so good job.

Here's a question, would plate armor be hardened or left soft? Knowing how hardened armor plate likes to spall when impacted I can see a reason for leaving it soft. Plus the deformation of the metal would help absorb energy
@brodieknight772 5 жыл бұрын
@@johnbeauvais3159 Hardened, pretty much always. Once plate was commonplace, it was hardened and tempered like swords, which is why it was so crazy expensive. It was construced in a dome like fashion so it could not be shattered or cracked, and it was not so hard as to be brittle. It would dent before it would crack usually. Armour was just too expensive and valuable to leave soft and let it dent and bend to absorb impact. Not only would that cost alot, but it would ruin the structural integrity of the armour for future blows. They had padded jackets to absorb impact. This was strong shit, and only a hammer or spike from a long, heavy polearm could damage it significantly. Mostly armoured men would be killed either by massive concussion or broken neck from getting hit on the head with a mace (even though the helmet might barely dent at all) or they would be dragged to the ground, pinned down, and stabbed in the eye hole or armpit. Think if a knight as a tank: you really need a specialist weapon or a big numbers advantage to take them down, elsewise they're untouchable.
@brodieknight772 5 жыл бұрын
@@JesusChrist42000No. Good Japanese armour metal as well. It want as well designed, but the force transfer would still be mild. Like I said: the is no support behind the hitting end of nunchucks, so only has the inertia of a short rod, and not a whole arm and body behind the weapon. Watch when Jason hits the mannequin. It doesn't crash down, it literally bounces off of anything because it has no support. It might go very fast, but it would only be able to transfer force for a fraction of a second. This means a much lower impulse, which means that force transfers inefficiently. That means that it's only going to hurt the thing that it impacts. Think like this: if a man has a wooden board on his chest, and you want to hurt him with rocks, do you throw smaller rocks at him or do you take a bigger rock in your hand and hit him? Thrown rocks have harldy any inerta, so the force doesn't transfer well, but in you hand, a rock had the whole weight of your arm beind it. Just look at flails: they had them in Japan, and they had a longer handle, longer chain, and much heavier striking end than nunchucks. This means that it must take alot more force to hurt an armoured man than nunchucks can deliver. If nunchucks could do the job against Japanese armour, then they would have used nunchucks and not made flails at all, because nunchucks are so much more convenient and light and nimble than a flail. But no, they invented flails because nunchucks weren't heavy enough.

As someone who has practiced nunchucks for about 7 years, I’m both proud and cringing at them. I’m proud because they were able to get so far so fast (with no proper instructor) and I’m cringing because of a couple reasons. 1. Their technique is terrible. 2. A few of the moves that they did are never going to be used, because when using nunchucks you have to be really fast and hit hard without worrying about the stance you are in. 3. I know that this is technique, but I have to point this out. You don’t hold the nunchucks at the bottom!! You hold it at the top for more control. If you go with holding it at the bottom, you’ll hit yourself more often (Experienced this first handedly). 4. The transition between moves was choppy. What has to be done to make it more smooth and preserve momentum is making a more circular arc than going from one direction to the other with dramatic changes (I hope that makes sense, hard to really put into words).

suggestion, hold the nunchucks closer to the top for more control on your momentum and its easier for you to grab the nunchuck when transitioning to your resting poses between combos :)| thanks guys. keep up the amazing work
@jamesmonschke747 26 күн бұрын
1) Light-weight, foam nunchucks are much faster than heavier wooden ones, but because they have less momentum they are also much harder to control. "Real" (wooden) nunchucks are much easier to control. You'll notice in videos of most karate displays of nunchucks they use very light nunchucks to get impressive (flashy) speed, even though those would not be useful in a fight. 2) The practical aspect of the "flourishes" is that it makes it very hard to predict what attack may be coming and where it may be coming from. 3) I spent a lot of time in my youth learning to use nun-chucks pretty well, and even though I have spent no time learning to use a baseball bat, I would prefer having a baseball bat in a real fight (but I don't regret the time spent learning nunchucks, they have been fun, even if they are not as practical in a fight for me).
