Hahhaha those ninja technique situations are so funny. Like, everyone knows it aint gonna work but drills it anyway :D
But I guess the use of these ninja moves is not actually to work during the fight, but just to make you more aware of your body, how it can enter the technique from completely different position than default etc etc..it just connects stuff in the brain, probably even more than we realize while drilling them.
And if we ever pull it of during the roll and it's on camera. Hell yeah, it's our hero moment :D
that is a good point.
The higher belts could probably make it work on me pretty easily though and have their hero moment.
