Are any of you long time Modern Arnis practitioners familiar with a master Carnes (sp) from Chico Ca area? I got a phone call out of the blue today. I have never met the guy, but he had lots to say.

Curious if he is legit or not.

Says he has been around long long time.
 
He is a UNIQUE person

You famililar with him? Claims to have been a black belt when Remy was a yellow belt. Learned from Remy's grand father.

Sound possible?
 
He had some less then flattering things to say about many of GM's branch heads... He was dropping names I was not familiar wiht, as I am still a newbie...but Said he will send me a video of him and Prof. Grandfather working out, and Prof as a yellow belt.

Mentioned many other people who are on the tape.....but I didn't recognize those names.... But said they started things like Abinico Corto arnis, Kun tao arnis, balintawak ,

Just curiuos if any of you had heard of him
 
I have heard of his name from Jerome Barber. I recall something about him training with RP's father or something like that. Personal knowledge? None.

Yours,
Dan Anderson

I would be more than happy to discuss him when I see you. I would prefer not to do so on the net. I've been hearing from him for about 8-10 years now.

the Pink Book both published in English and Tagolog has the following Color Belts:

White 1-6
Brown I
Brown II
Brown III

It would suprise me that GM RPresas had any rank in ModernArnis other than 10 Degree Founder. He did Train in a Japanese Karate Style (* I will not slaughter the spelling here *) and also some Judo.

If it was One Of Remy's Kids training with Remy's Father then I might truly enjoy seeing this video.

I have seen one of Master Carnes Videos already and I believe the proper description is Unique.

Yes; he has called me before also.

"Unique" is a great description....

Dude, just so you know, you can call me with any questions you might have also, if you want. I'm only a hop skip and a jump from you, ya know? ;)

I do appreciate it, everyone. Since he has contacted so many of you, and apprantly sent out this tape before, I feel like a big joke is being played on me......Unique is the best and only description everyone gives...... Am I going to see animal porn when it arrives? He called today to let me know it was on its way. I will let everyone know my (never to be humble) opinion.
By the way...He says he has a website, although I coudlnt get it to work.........www.monkeyjeetkunedo.com
He said you have to go through altavista search engine....i tried but couldnt' get it to come up. If anyone gets it....let me know....i will try again.

He said he has been cleaning up the Modern arnis world of all these 'so called grandmasters, and leaders" now he needs to turn his attention to Jeet kune do practioners who dont know what they are doing.

Best of luck to him......I guess?!?!?
 
I got the site to come up I did not browse much.


As to cleaning up, that is nice :D

He is the Guardian or Modern Arnis ;)

I suppose I could use a good cleaning as much as the next guy but he hasn't come to see me so I suppose I'll keep showering in the morning until he does.

he told me that he bought the plane ticket for danny inosanto, when he went to TRAIN the masters in the philippines.

:rofl:

hopefully that will tell you something....
 
No, I didn't pay money. He seen me in black belt, and called my number out of the blue. Told me who he was, and how he has been correcting all the 'so called masters' for a while now. He is getting tired of it, and is going to turn his attention to Jeet kune do again, like he had to do in the 80's. He offered to send the tape to me to prove that he knew what he was talking about ,and that no one else knows jack.

That guy cracks me up...

That's cool man. Just making sure you didn't get dupped. I got an e-mail this week, and he offered me 30 "new" Presas tapes at $25 a peice. What a deal, eh? I hope that he didn't infringe on copyright laws for those!

I would be interested to hear about what he sends you though...keep us posted.

Rock,

Your are not old yet. This is why he has over looked you and Jim. :D

I guess those like yourself and Jim and Others that started in the late 70's do not count as older timers or seniors :D.

I hope to see you soon.
 
the end of the tape showed he had 30 arnis tapes for sale at $25/each. If you buy 10 you get 5 free, and buy 20 get 10 free...seomething like that.......But i can tell you from the free sample I got...........I paid too much!!!!

He seems like he knows what he is doing from what I could tell of these old (some b/w) clips, footage, training, and playing around. He has definatly held the sticks before.....You can't hear much of anything, the lighting is bad, and it doesn't show/teach you anything. I don't know anything about proving who he is/was or what he knows...... I just know that he has some talent with the sticks.

I am willing to sell my tape here on martial talk to the highest bidder.......
Can i get a $$$$.............



anyone..............anyone...............
