Struggling to conceive how there are only three comments considering the powerhouse that is Mr Filiki! Taekwon Sir!

The board holders they use are terrifying. I realize these people are professional and precise, but one slip up and it looks like it would cause a bad injury

I was around back int he day, for the introduction of these breaking boards, never liked them. The early versions flew out of the holders and caused injuries, I much preferred pine boards. I also don't like the modern horse/holders because the design means if you miss, (can happen) you're liable to get a bad injury. Using wood, is much more hassle, but much safer and if you use the right stuff, its does a fine job of testing power. That said, nice breaks and for those who don't know martial arts, if you hit a target with all the energy of a breaking technique, and you don't break, a lot of that energy is absorbed by you, instead of going through the target, so strikes that don't break HURT!
