Does anyone know where the TSD senior level master belts with two red stripes running through the black/midnight blue belt came from? I heard rumor once that it was KJN JC Shin who started getting them circulated and clearly it has moved to other organizations. Also, if we are going to break one of the few legitimate traditions that TSD has, I find it kind of funny that CJN CS Kim wears/has worn the double red stripe belt, yet keeps the tradition of the midnight blue belt over black belts running...I don't know that just stuck out as odd to me.
Also...keeping on the topic of different belts and KJN Shin, what's up with the panel belts for 8th&9th dan? Does anyone know the reason and/or philosophy behind that?
I'm not bashing anyone, just legitimately curious where these new belts came from. The double red stripe thing has become quite popular.
