I guess you could say video games are also my anti-drug but I digress, I would like to find at least one aspie interested in nunchaku! I know aspies naturally or usually have poor coordination and I used to as well, I also know that no two people are exactly alike but there has to be at least one aspie here that likes or practices nunchaku... am I right? :?

I'm more for the Jukdo(Bamboo Sword in Korean) for Kumdo. I'm pretty good at since I'm a purple belt along with a ability to build my strength for it.

I used to have a book that showed forms I would practice with, mostly the simpler forms. I still have a pair of rattan nunchucks, but I haven't pulled them out for a while. I've got other weapons, like a sword, throwing knives and other assorted knives that I also have not played with for quite some time.

Well at least there are a few martial artists on here, even if you don't use nunchaku.

Not really a drug... staying on topic, apparently I am the only one that calls them nunchaku, it could be because I don't like to americanise things.

I love my nunchucks, bo, and bow. I only like my darts and throwing knives. :roll:

Favorite weapons are the bo, and short double-edged pointy swords. I also throw star and blade shuriken.
