Hey Josh. I would select a 6' nontapered bo and cut it down to 5'6" in length.

Hope this helped in time!

Hi Kristian. I'm going to assume you are just starting out with the bo (let me know if I'm wrong). A bo that is a good balance between easy-to-use and durable would be this one: wp-bo-31.

Bo selection

He is incorrect and gives me the impression that he doesn't study at a traditional Okinawan weapons school, where the use of the bo originated. Therefore, he doesn't know the needs of another practitioner. Buy your stuff here but try the link below:

The man in the youtube video is much more knowledgeable

Hey Joel! Nishiuichi is fantastic - I think everyone who stumbles onto my video here should also watch the video you suggest.

I doubt I'll ever be at Nishiuchi Sensei's level, although I'll continue to try and improve.

Your impression of my background however is not correct. If needed, you can read more about me here - http://www.karatedepot.com/author-1-Matthew-Apsokardu.html.
