You may be particularly interested in this, Gou...
In the latest issue of Black Belt magazine (November 2001...Dan Inosanto on the cover), on page 103, there is an advertisement for a training device called 'kenpo man'.
I have no idea of it's height, as there is nothing pictured next to it for size comparison, so I can only give a brief description.
Nearly all of this device is padded, with an internal metal tube skeleton. It has a central vertical post with a single 'arm' sticking out at a right angle about 1/3 of the length down from the top. At the bottom of the vertical post is a short perpendicular horizontal bar acting as hips, from which two 'legs' jut out to the ground from either end of the bar at 45-degree angles.
According to the ad, different sizes are available and the 'arm' swivels. It costs $438USD.
Their is a link to the creator's site at:
TAI Ken Po [sic]
It is a David German, a supposed 10th Dan in TAI ken po [sic]. Though this is the URL given in the Black Belt magazine ad, there is NO info on this training device anywhere on his site.
