Urban Beatdown: Defend Yourself

do you guys practice a style and just rent out space with a kungfu school? i can see that most of your urban beatdown moves range from basic self-defense to some minor judo. or are you just demonstrating street applications?

No no, we just made all of this up.

You guys are hilarious… these videos are great.

Only problem: I can’t see them.

In order to watch your videos, I have to either follow the link from the feed (if there is one), or check out your page source, find the mov url, and copy-paste it in a new tab.

Any thoughts?

Are you guys going to post any new videos?

We are, we are. Both Josh and I had some life-snags, and are getting our collective houses in order. Not to worry, we will be slapping each other around soon enough.

Cool. I hope everything works out for you guys.

Come on guys, 6 months later, its time for some new stuff.

sooooooo….. no more hilarious videos then?

Iv noticed that although violent and hilarious you two are, there are only one or two times where the camera-person speaks. who are they?

second: is this all based on kung fu, or are there other points of influence?

The camera mans name is Jacob, and is Josh’s roommate and kung fu student. An Egor of sorts? I kid, I kid. He has proving to be a reliable camera man and would probably win in a bum fight.

Yes these are all based on a kung fu- the Eight Step Preying Mantis, or Ba Bu Tang Lang system. BUT, this system includes joint locks (chin na), throws (shuia xiao)( I have no idea how to spell these things so I’m saying it out loud slowly and writing it down phonetically.) A lot of these techniques are similar to, or have been integrated into other systems of martial arts. The arm over the shoulder throw, for example, is in judo, aikido, you name it. The eight step mantis system has 40 throws, 20 of which I’ve definitely seen elsewhere. And the other twenty we can never demonstrate without KILLING OUR PARTNER. Just kidding. We’ll probably do them.

so, like the other restless viewers, is life settled enough for more long distance laughs?
