Nunchucks are one of the most iconic weapons in martial arts. Nunchucks are fun to use and can be employed to perform a wide variety of impressive techniques. They are a fantastic investment if you're looking to start a new hobby or just want an unconventional weapon of defense. Though there are many practical techniques useful in self-defense, the finger spin is a more dramatic technique useful for showing off the skill acquired with a nunchuck. This is a good technique for those experienced with nunchucks.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Pair of nunchucks
  • A physician's approval

    Finger Spin

  1. Step 1

    Grasp one handle of your nunchucks near the top, where the rope is attached.

  2. Step 2

    Move your hand in front of you as if you are drawing a sideways figure eight. The other handle should be forming a wider figure eight in front of you.

  3. Step 3

    Extend your index finger.

  4. Step 4

    When the nunchuck moves to the location your palm is facing, release the nunchuck and let the rope hit your finger.

  5. Step 5

    As the nunchuck spins around your finger, catch one of the handles of the nunchuck.

  6. Step 6

    Regain control of the nunchuck.

Tips & Warnings
  • Practice this technique many times to learn to execute it properly.
  • Do not let the rope wrap around your finger, or you will drop the nunchuck.
  • Do not let the rope wrap around your hand, or you will be performing a different technique
