    I also survived...survived watching some of the strangest "anyo" competition. I mean, the costumes were outlandish. There was even this ladies' team that wore G-strings over their spandex. I think they were supposed to represent a Cordillerian tribe. Others were dressed up as "diwatas" or something. Now is that culturally correct or what? One troupe looked like it could also win in a Wu Shu competition, with their Kung Fu-looking routines. Well, great show, though.

    Haha! I saw a player in the ladies division too that moved like an epileptic while fighting... odd... :Alien:

    Who saw Kai's (from Cebu)? Amazing... he first did a slow mo of some moves and then re-did it at an amazing unbelievable speed!

    Now I'm really sorry I missed it.

    BTW, was this well received by the judges? Did they win.

    I remember watching a tape of the 1996 WEKAF forms championships and in the "traditional" competition, there was one guy who did a Korean "flute" sayaw and another guy who used a Chinese ringed dao. The Korean guy came in third. In the non-traditional, the guy who won did a magician's arnis routine with flying sticks included in the act.

    Bawhahaha! You know I remember the magian thingy too, "Kick conection" if I am not mistaken, I laughed my socks off.

    Richard Bustillo (he was WEKAF out going President and organiser at the time) made a last minute rule in the Sayaw event that year which really dissapointed me. That was the no hitting the floor thing with the weapon:confused: and if you did you lost a point from your final score.

    One Filipino came out and he performed one of the best Sayaw's I have seen, (I was in the same division and thought this guy is more than good, I will be happy with silver after that performance, came 4th, I hit the floor twice:eek: ) he came last because he hit the floor about 10 times.

    The first guy ever to lose a Sayaw event by being the best there. Richards excuse was he would have got sued for damaging the floor. never mind the rules of the comp eh! or anything like that. Not to mention the fact that most of the people had trained for at least 6 months for the event only to find the rule had been changed at the last minute because RB wanted to make a few rule changes (like the other quaqlifying event the day before the real world championships, but thats another story).

    After that the WEKAF Board agreed that any rule change that had to be made at the world championships would not be implemented untill the next world championships 2 years later.

    Best regards

    losing is better than winning imo, after 12 years of ma i still prefer a fight when i lose because you get teh "wow i survived a heavy beating" feeling and you learn alot more from a fight you lost than a fight you won tho you can learn from both.

    I can understand the sparring part; I trained as a judge/referee some time ago. But I don't know what to make of the "anyo"; I am not familiar with the criteria for judging. I don't know how the judges receive it; I think they were ok with it. But nobody complained from the audience. The defending champions who got displaced spent a small fortune on protest fees. Hahaha
