Thanks so much for taking the time to meet me in July! It was truly a pleasure.

@Dimensions just slayed 5th Dan.
Bang boom wow, so well done Rob!

Kengeaa

Well done @Dimensions..!! Fifth Dan is crazy, how long have you been playing?

LarsVegas

So @Dimensions is the next to enter the race for the first non-Japanese 6th Dan. Congratulations - and well deserved.

Yes indeed. Although he will probably be beaten to it as he has to wait 6 years before he's allowed to enter!

Very well deserved though.

Dimensions

Thanks guys!
@Kengeaa I've been playing for about 3 years now, so I'm pretty darn chuffed with my new Dan!
@LarsVegas Apparently you have to be a Jappanese adult to even atempt 6th Dan - which is 21. So a six year wait for me.
Six years six Dans

@Dimensions : well, six years is long, but you _can_ wait. To become Japanese is more difficult. But I can't imagine that you have to be Japanese - Void has already tried to get the 6th Dan. But then, maybe he is Japanese and I just don't know ...

By "Japanese Adult" I meant the legal age of which you then become an adult by Japan law.
or something along those lines :)

And also a big well done to Lucien for also getting his 5th Dan - but this time on his first go!

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but was extremely happy i managed to pay a visit to JKA recently and managed..


Used a TK-16 for the moshi (superb weight, by the way!) And a Mugen for the rest.
What the trick?

BKA

Congratulations, @azleonhart ! Your forum profile has been updated. We'll get to the Dan register in a day or two.
