The 150-200 MPH "HELICOPTER" CANE SPIN

www.canemasters.com
Cane Masters' President, H. Keith Melton adds another technique that you can add to your arsenal of cane defense movements. The powerful HELICOPTER SPIN has been clocked up to 200MPH with a radar gun and is a powerful way to hold off multiple attackers. This video teaches the ACSD technique and shows how to develop Power, Speed, and Accuracy.

Keith, your videos are excellent, your skills and training is inspirational to the new caner, ACSD is combative self defense and cane flow makes it fun and beautiful. Keep the videos coming.

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

Thank you John for the kind words… The ACSD system is the most comprehensive tactical cane system in the world… thank you for being part of the ACSD family! Keith

You got my attention. I'm looking forward to my cane arrival.

[@rodgerreschke8434]

Love these videos. Much to learn at 80 with difficult wrists, but still practice. Thank you for the instructions.

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

Hello! We're delighted to hear that you enjoy the videos and find them helpful.

You are too cool, my man. I want to learn these techniques myself, and soon I will be equipped with one of your canes. I hope to get one next month or April. Take care.

I’m going to practice that sitting in a wheelchair. I can see it would be a useful skill to have. Thanks

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

Hi John! Constant practice makes a big difference, thanks so much!

[@hagiasmos314]

Elsewhere I saw a gentleman in a wheelchair doing various cane strokes. None was fast enough to prevent his opponent from grabbing the cane when it slowed at the end of a stroke or at the beginning, before the stroke began. I was distressed for his sake. It seemed no one would point out to him that his strokes were ineffective. I myself had no training at that time and so I didn't feel it was appropropriate for me to risk upsetting him, especially since that might be how many people who are in a wheelchair necessarily learn. All that said, I think you can use this stroke effectively to good result. All the best to you!

[@hagiasmos314]

Outstanding, as usual. Thanks for the help, sir!

Hey Keith, great video my friend. You are an asset and inspiration to the world of Martial Arts. Please keep the videos comming. Thanks.

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

Thank you Jimmy for your kind words... Keith

[@erinmaliene7785]

I really enjoy your videos, they are very helpful. One thing in particular about this video though is you keep your fist vertical on the strike. If you were to turn your thumb to the outside so that your palm was up on the strike you would transfer a greater amount of force to the Target as you allow more of your body mechanics behind the swing. Striking the way you do in the video allows the cane a greater chance to bounce off the target diminishing some of the impact. I am far from any kind of expert or professional. If I am incorrect please help me understand why. Thank you for your time.

Ok, The came looks fun and I want to train. BUT!, a concealed carry seems a lot more secure!

[@HCW2855HCW]

Carry conceal, spray, cane and any other defense you choose to give you options.

[@prestonclark6472]

I've not seen anyone in the cane training community talk about using the cane to knock people out by targeting the vagus nerve. Is there training on this subject?

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

There are different techniques on how to use the cane for striking during self-defense situations. The main goal is to keep yourself safe from any harm regardless of what and where to strike.

[@robertfincher2895]

Would love to see defense moves with palm rest.

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

Hi Robert… The helicopter spin works the same if you have a Palm Rest on or not… But it needs to be started from the horn up position when your chamber. Best regards… Keith

[@robertfincher2895]

@@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes thank you but interested in techniques with palm rest if possible.

hi why practicing both hand

[@kristinvogt6980]

First thing I will try with my ‘Chi’ cane when she gets here ….she will be multi purpose!

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

AWESOME!

[@davidwayne9982]

After over 1000 conftontations on the street--- you have TWO choices in multiple attacks-- the ONE that is BIGGEST - OR the one that moves FIRST.. those are the only two qualifiers you need in deciding.. who comes first??

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

The answer is that you should begin to defend yourself at the moment you detect an attack and don't have a way to retreat. Sometime you don't have the luxury of being the first... and your cane can help defensively to disable the attacker. Keith

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

Cane Masters produces only canes... we do not create training products. Keith

[@barmstrong25]

I wonder what that technique would do to a cantaloupe.

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

Hi Bill... it would make a great video to smash a cantaloupe... if only it would't make such a big mess in my office! Keith

[@davidwayne9982]

That BACKWARD hook crap is AWKWARD as he... for me.... I'd have to do something else. I can NOT carry or hold one BACKWARD. simply doesn't work... NOT saying it's not working or effective--- I simply can't do it.. Something in the way I'm wired will NOT let me.. maybe hold habits.. (iado, kendo, etc.)... who knows..

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

Hi David, thanks for reaching out! There are other tactics that you might be comfortable in doing with. With proper and constant practice, muscle memory will be developed. You can email us at [e-mail] if you need anything.

[@hagiasmos314]

Unlearning _is_ even harder than learning. But the reverse grip is the better way to hold a cane simply for walking. Notice how it enables you to hold your arm straight whereas the forward grip requires that you bend your arm at the elbow. The result is that you're better able to bear weight when you use a reverse grip. I use a cane for mobility and I'm in the process of adjusting to a reverse grip.

[@JR-pr8jb]

As an old guy who carries a cane for security while walking my dog, I have ZERO interest in flamboyant martial arts techniques. Let's be realistic for a change.

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

We completely understand where you're coming from. Practicality and personal security should always be the top priorities. Martial arts can definitely be adapted to suit individual needs and circumstances. If flamboyant techniques don't align with your goals, there are many styles that focus on efficient, straightforward self-defense. It's all about finding what works best for you and your situation. We appreciate your time watching this video. Stay safe out there!

[@sefaucon3839]

Well , theory,theory , theory.

But we should stop saying that this is miracle No offense

[@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes]

We totally understand your point, however, having proper knowledge and skills in using a walking cane for personal protection can go a long way. Better be prepared than sorry. Thanks for sharing!
