Flip and Flick


Just Greg and I. We focused on the Cane in close range and confined spaces. We first defined what "close range" and "confined spaces" was in a historic context and then in the modern. We looked at Lang's "Flip" and "Flick," both my interpretation and Craigs. Then Lang and Vigny's bayonet related material. Examined the different grips used in the Lang and Vigny bayonet style material. We also brought in a bit of Cunningham work ("Double Guard"). Did a few drills using modified bayonet (Lang, Vigny, Cunningham) against a knife in a restricted area, then developed a "practice set" of chained techniques and defenses.

Followed this with an inclusion of the defenses against a grab from the "Cane and the Footpad" article along with the logical extensions for left or right use.

Finally, I taught one blood-choke using the cane which flows sometimes from Lang's "Flip." It's a variant of gyaku.
