    Product quality?

    I need to know a couple of things:

    First, how sturdy is this the plastic core? I plan to add padding to the ends to make it full contact. Will it withstand that kind of force? Has anyone had problems with cracking?

    Second, I need to know how it will flex. I don't want it bending too much on me when I'm trying to block a strike or disarm. When held at one end and wobbled, approx what angle would you say it flexes at?

    Thanks so much for any input.

    It's fairly sturdy and doesn't have a lot of flex (it's not wobbly).

    I personally have no experience with bo staff and so my review may not reflect how good it actually is. For me, it is too flexible (it bends a rediculous amount when brought down hard) making it hard for me to train with (when I say train I mean mess around, but still). Also if left in a bent position for too long it will permanently be bent that way. Also the foam has stretched on the ends so there is now a few inches of just foam outer covering, which I find annoying. It was good for when you got hit by it though. It hurt a bit but no where near what it would if it was a hard bo. Overall, a good cheap bo for small practice, but I don't know how good it is for when you transition to a real bo staff.

    Being in the minor league of Martial Arts the Foam Bo Staff is perfect. Whether it was just practice at home or full contact at the gym, the Rubber Foam Bo by KD Elite sold here is light weight and helped increase my speed and control. Fast and easy shipping, too.
    Thanks, Karate Depot for the suggestion to start with the lighter bo staff, GW

    I give it a 5/5 because it is really great for training and dosen't break on impact. It also is really flexible, but the one downside is that it makes marks on the walls. Otherwize it's GREAT!!!

    its good

    This weapon is good. It's lighter than I expected but of good quality. I would recommend it to anyone who want to focus mainly on technique. This is also good for light sparring but does leave marks on surrounding surfaces.

    Nice Practice Bo

    As far as foam weapons go, this one's a little lighter than I expected. It's still great for practice, and isn't too thick like other padded weapons. After 4 months of use the foam still hasn't ripped or torn.



    The only problem I have is the weapon leaves tons of marks on the ceilings/walls. If you plan on using it in tight places, you might consider taping some kind of cover on the ends. Also if a girl comes over and asks about all the black marks on the ceiling, don't whip out the bo and start hitting around your furniture... it won't impress.
