Lameco Eskrima Videos?

[Soulsurfer]

Hi everybody! I'm new here so please forgive me if this question has already been asked. I've been involved in FMA for a few years now, and am interested in the Lameco eskrima system. As there are no training facilities where I reside, I find I'm stuck with learning from the video tape series for now. Has anyone seen the vids from Unique on Lameco? If so, your critiques and comments would be of great help. Thanks alot!

Soulsurfer,
As far as the videos from Unique, they may seem fairly basic if you've been in the FMA for awhile. On the other hand, as far as the basis of the system is concerned, the two single stick tapes run you through striking patterns of the system. The tapes from Lameco Eskrima Int'l (Adv. Laban Laro 1 & 2) are good tapes for training drills, and if you can find it the Original Laan LAro tape has very good content as well (but the production is poor). I haven't seen the Double stick tapes, so no opinion there.

Hope this helps,

Thanks for the feedback Andy, I really appreciate it! I'll probably check out those Laban Laro vids as well, I've also heard good things about them.
