Okay, we've all seen the backyard ninja's here on the forums that say they have their own custom styles that they've mastered when we know they're just kids that swing a sword around at home.
Out of curiosity, does anyone know some that does not fit this description with a custom style with some practicality and that would actually hold up in competition??

::sigh:: I feel I'll regret this post later..

Before anyone starts bashing custom styles, Jeet Kun Do is Bruce Lee's own style of bare handed martial arts, a combination of a number of forms of martial arts.
This is the type of stuff I'm talking about, people actually experienced with the sword and KNOWS what they're doing, yet have made it their own in a unique way.

P.S. A video would be nice, I want to see what all is out there ^_^

Only if your own created style, creates its own international association in which to hold a comp....

hmmm, I am unsure but i doubt anythinglike that would be recognised in an IKF/FIK comp.

Who would they compete against, and how would it be judged? Sounds messy.

actually I know quite a few people in the Chinese MA game who look down on lee because he had only about 18 months of formal instruction.

hardly enough to go off to make your own style.

also if you actually read his autobiography he states basically in a few more words that anyone who claims to practice jeet kun do is an idiot.

I have developed my own custom martial art. It is mainly using the fingers to control everything. It's called ninten-do.

Are you sure you want to challenge me?
I am classically-trained using NES. Were you even born then??? It would be unfair of me to school you.

I myself have fought with Bokkens in Tae Kwon do, with stuff i basically took from videos and made up. I dont know if i would hold my own in a tournament though, actually i am pretty sure i would lose . I am part of a demo team in Tae Kwon do, and scine tae kwon do is only Hand-Hand we have to make up our own forms and stuff.
