>How have they worked?

well i wouldn't say fighting, as i havn't been in that much fights, I'm more referring to spar's I've had and non full contact fights! I'm talking about feints etc, double kicks,
ddodging and blocking etc.
I'm more referring to Stealth acts, like hiding, using shadows as a source of hiding, tree's, camoflage, directions the eyes can only see and using that to your advantage e.g, them walking straight past u, yet being few feet away from em!
Times I've used them techniques is hiding from police, from ppl, from my g/f, hide and seek games, training when i was at training at kevin hawthorn.
All good!!!
