The #buddhaisawan #virtualsummit2020 features many fighters who play #krabikrabong full contact - with rattan! Aj. Arlan is a founding member of #thedogbrothers. Contact is the best teacher of all. Good 36” fighting quality rattan is often hard to get - @kombatinstruments makes it easy. Ask a #dogbrother where they get their rattan.

Rattan makes a great training tool whether for #krabikrabong or #fma - it lets practitioners feel the weight without the risk. And even allows some hardy fools to go full contact with their technique. #buddhaisawan #virtualsummit2020

@kombatinstruments supports #krabikrabong training

@kombatinstruments supports #krabikrabong training by providing critical training gear such as 36” rattan, mae sowks, and safety equipment - attendees of the #buddhaisawan #virtualsummit2020 will receive 15% off rattan during the Summit.

Cranking out the choreographed bang from #buddhaisawan #krabikrabong for short spear #horksadt as hard and fast as they can go. Nuanced movements in the slower performed version start to make more sense when you spend time pushing the envelope. Then there is the free fight.... #muaykecheuk #muayboran #muaythai #fma #escrima #kali #arnis #dogbrothersmartiarts

More festival action footage - #maesowks vs #ngao and #lo - closing on the ngao is scary and having mae sowks inside guard is downright apocalyptic #buddhaisawan #krabikrabong #muaykecheuk #muaythai #muayboran #muaychaiya
