[-15%] OUTLET Jodan Shinai - TSUBASA RUBY
*SECOND RATE: Unused Shinai, in perfect condition but with more-than-usual imperfections and marks on the bamboo, thus the discounted price. Normally, when the growing bamboo hit each other by the wind they generate marks, and it is known that these "injuries" on the growing bamboo actually makes it more sturdy and durable, however, customers often seek the ones with cleaner appearance which is why these end up on the Outlet section.
Fun Budogu fact: Some japanese Sensei deliberately look out for Shinai with marks because they heard about the durability or due to their unique raw appearance as well.
- Extra long grip Shinai.
Tsubasa Budogu proudly presents its original Shinai models line up, Tsubasa Brand!
Tsubasa Ruby is a Keichiku Shinai with Tsukanaga (long grip) particularly made for Jodan players but also a viable option for competition in middle (Chudan) stance if you are a "extra-long-grip user". Great for changing the hands position on the grip when in Chudan-no-Kamae and for powerful strikes with Katate-waza (single handed techniques) with the proper right hand pushing when in Jodan-no-Kamae.
It comes assembled with a Gin-Fu Tsukagawa of about 36cm long (which will stretch overtime) and the assembled Tsuka has a 26mm of diameter. This Shinai is available in 38 and 39 size, for man and women.
* Recommended for: Trainning and competition in Jodan. Also, an unorthodox yet viable option for Chudan, specially in competition.
* SSP Approval: This Shinai follows the actual All Japan Kendo Federation designated regulations.
* The size of Tsuba/Tsubadome set is designated by the Shinai size when the option for adding them is selected. If you want to buy a specific size of Tsuba/Tsubadome set, you need to purchase them as a separate item.
* Assembled Shinai; Leather fittings/parts included.
