Devin signed up for two events at the tourny - weapons and forms. In weapons, you pick a weapon to perform (he chose his favorite nunchuks) and for forms there are these long series of movements called katas (kadas??) that they show. I think we figured out the key to winning the big trophies was precision of movements and loud Kiah's. When you see how many people are watching, it can be a little intimidating, but they did a really nice job. I was especially proud of Devin's self control while he say next to one of his friends at the ring. This friend was chatting away through all the other contestants and really not demonstrating good respect and self control. Devin didn't get sucked it. A sure sign karate is working!!
