It's time to nominate who you think should win the 2017 supporting membership. Someone you think has added to the community feel, or someone who has inspired you in some way. Maybe you have your own reasons for nominating someone, so put those reasons when nominating, as it may help others make a decision. We'll either narrow it down to a couple of options, or they'll be a clear winner. I nominate Knee Rider, who has grown stronger as a poster as the year has gone on, been supporting of others in their training logs and even posted his own videos to help get his points across.
Dammit!!! I spent the 1st 4 paragraphs thinking 'Knee Rider' before realising that you buried the lead... I'll then either 2nd that choice, or for very similar reasons, offer up Morik as a suggestion. Travess
Cheers guys! I actually came on to put my vote in for Thomas. I think he is an excellent poster who always has something measured, articulate and informative to say. He clearly is an old hand who knows his Korean martial arts and is very pragmatic in his assessment of the modern martial arts landscape. He doesn't post loads, but when he does I almost always 'like' his content. I think he's a bit of an unsung hero. I should probably be buying a supporting membership anyway.
+1 for Knee Rider. Also like to suggest David Harrison, if for no other reason then he makes a great devils advocate. He's excellent with his source material.
Definitely @Knee Rider for all of the above reasons. Plenty of useful content. As highlighted by Simon, the original video content adds a lot in explanation, and also some of his own endeavours for improvement.
Travess, morick and latikos have all been great posters, as have many others,but knee rider is a great nomination.
Not only are you rude about PiP, but you use text speak too! Mods! I nominate Morik, because of the gains he's made this year. Knee Rider is so 2016... (only kidding, you're one of my favourite posters!)
So in no particular order we have: Knee Rider David Harrison Lakitos Morik Thomas Travess All great nominations for different reasons. We'll be choosing from this list unless you have any other suggestions.
I will nominate Ben Gash. He has consistently posted great information, not only this year, but ever year. This year is no different. I agree that Thomas is an unsung hero of MAP and I think Ben Gash is another one.
This sounds like such a stupid reason Why? You were there! A little how I ended up training kids, now that I think about it Took me second longer to get than I am comfortable with
I admit it, a "Thank you" would have been more appropriate. So: Thanks. Doesn't change the fact, that that's how I became coach for the kids
Congratulations Knee Rider. Some great nominations, but just because he got more votes Knee Rider wins this year's supporting membership.
Cheers Simon and the rest of you fine ladies and gents that keep MAP going through modding and/or membership! Have a merry Christmas and God bless us every one [breaks into back flips a la Tiny Tim at the end of Scrooged, puts out left hip and back and spends 2018 out of training and in traction ]
