Hey everyone
I picked up a cheap balisong and would like to become experienced in handling one. Does anyone know where I can find some online movies showing certain techniques? also where could I find a vocabulary of certain related terms? Any help, or advice would be appreciated
Thanks
 
Hello, and welcome!!

You'll find just about everything you need to get you swinging here

You will find step by step instructions, complimented by video's of almost any trick you can imagine, and even some you can't...have fun, and good to have you here.

edit: I suppose i should have mentioned that the link above will take you to Balisongextreme.com, the site of one of our moderators, Clay. Be sure to check out his freestyle videos on the site and you will soon learn that Clay is our resident expert (aka. The Man):)
 
Hey everyone
Thanks for the replies
I love this thing!
It's so easy if you study the video and play it over and over. I have got the vertical opening and closing down pretty good..but im going to do it over and over for a few days, maybe that will help get some strength in my hand..(man, these can open and close fast :)) Also im glad i put some tape on the blade..I spent so long getting it shaving sharp, maybe not such a good idea for a beginer:rolleyes:
 
Heh, I know how that is. Remember, the safe handle is your friend, and once you have the basics down solid, I'd reccomend working on doing the manipulations so that the blade never touches your hand.
 
On what everyone said.., and welcome to the Forum...hope you enjoy it!

Welcome, make sure to do the hand excerises on Clay's sight. They really do make a difference.
