maelstrøm recently acquired a full set of Spartan training armour. We finally had a chance to break it out and give it a try. Tuhon Loki suited up and spent an intense 45 minutes providing an aggressive feed to the students in our Tuesday night empty hand class.
Tuhon Loki’s assessment:
So you feel bad-ass and maybe just a bit intimidating – right up until the first over-eager student hauls off and socks you in the face. Then you realize that this is not meant to replace a FIST suit – or prevent whiplash. That said, it fits and moves really well and it gives those over-eager students much more permission to push their striking techniques. I am not inhibited in my movement so I can keep up with them and not worry about the occasional clash.I like it!!
