Nice reviews. If you have any questions about the prochux and how best to do a move please email Lee or leave him a post in the official prochux thread
http://www.freestyleforum.net/index.php?topic=4324.90

Thanks for the input nice job


Lee rocks the prochux.  So does RCTrue.  I've figured out that it's all about the rolls around the middle of the chux, but I think what I am missing the most is the feel of a heavier chuck that pulls the momentum around with me.  It's a work in progress.  Lee rocks the prochux, that's for sure.  I know most of this is just taking the time to really understand this instrument.   :thumb:  Thanks for the kind offer for help, Karateguy!  :thumb:

Rattans...  They are too light and floaty for me...and I like a med-light chuck..but rattans is just like toilet paper, rolled up into a nunchaku.  Matter of fact, I bet you could probably wipe with those things.    :lol:  (now I have to use rattans in my next video!  Spinning them that is..)

I think rattans work if you don't do a ton of passes or aerials..  I thought they were awesome at first... I was like "holy crap!  These are the lightest things ever.  I can spin them so fast!" but as I got into aerials and more passes...I started to feel sick...I began to throw up all over those chucks.  They are pukey now.  But there was a time...ahhh.... :hide:

Cons: Suffering no mortal wounds when you mess up is huge.  It's like a skateboarder that goes to a skate park in an astronaut suit full of padded clothes.  People laugh at him, and kick him (but he doesn't feel it anyways)




lucky I wasn't drinking milk or it would have came out my nose reading this

I didnt know his username was Internet Sensei lol... :roll:

Its just that you dont regularly find famous people giving off their emails to random people on the internet so that they dont get scammed, spammed, hacked, harrassed, etc by some of them...thats simply it...but if hes doing it for a good cause then i salute him! :gogogo

He is not giving it to random people. He is offering himself to the forum and it's members. Remember in real life Lee is Sensei Lee a 7th degree blackbelt who has been studying and teaching the martial arts for almost 30 years.

Lee Barden is one of the kindest people I have ever talked to. If anyone deserves respect its him. Not to many people or companies are willing to help the way Lee does. He backs his product up 100% and is always willing to give some friendly advice.

I'd like to see any other company replace a broken nunchaku for free or go out of their way to make sure you enjoy the product. Lee and Wally or class acts who are highly respected in my book.

I'd also like to add that the flowtoys (the glowing chucks) people (His name is Sean) are really awesome.  I've had a really good experience with dealing with them.  Every time I have messaged him, he has been very supportive and helpful.

I like everything(MA discipline, Types of Product, Extreme stuffs)as long as is humane and has a good roots. Alll sensei's deserves respect, not because of what they "do", but its about what they "did" that proves its worth.
