Kosho

I have been trying to find photographs of Kosho, the peculiar martial art that takes place on 2 trampolines divided by a pool of water. I wanted a picture of particpants with their white crash helmets and red robes over blue trakkies. But a photo won't convery the clumsy, slow, fight scenes the way a video will. Perhaps not so much fighting as flailing, bouncing and pursuing each other around the trampolines. Here it goes, and stay tuned because next I may manage to find footage of #6's bitching exercise equipment in the forest. You'd best be sitting down if I do, there is a lot of homoerotic grappling in the undegrowth and some time devoted to heads being crushed between mighty thighs.



Incidentally, when I hear the opening cymbal noise in this video I automatically start thinking of Jungle Boogie. Rather spoils the effect.
