Default Feb 2008 Video of the Month



i chose this video because the popularity of tricking, or extreme martial arts is increasing. this creates the question of how do we define martial arts? are these more acrobatic displays still considered martial arts or is this a different sport all together? is it important to make a distinction between martial arts and more modern hollywood stun martial arts?

the video is cool looking, but i cannot help to notice that 'coolness' is sometimes at the expense of technique. and some of the moves are incredibly impractical and would not work as kicks.
