Blast from the Past - Viper, February 2004

It's been a bit of a slow week, so I thought I would post some pictures taken from the video of the 2004 Viper tournament held at the Congress Centre here in February 2004.

For those of you who have never seen Master John compete, here's a great under-the-leg move sparring against Walter Baric. Folks, don't try this at home (or at a tournament unless you're James).

Below, Dirk is scoring a 2 point round-house kick to the head (yes, Dirk used to fight at tournaments).

Below, Geoff is cutting his opponent in half with a powerful side kick (yes, Geoff used to have Saturday's off to compete in tournaments).

Below, Dave is blitzing with an over the top reverse punch (yes, Dave used to compete in tournaments also).

And here, Peter is landing a nice ax kick on his opponent - a few of us know what that feels like :(

Here's Selina fighting on stage.

Here's Doc, exhibiting early signs of Pizzazz when he was a brown belt.

Here's Brian (as a purple belt at 8).
