    A little note. After a while of catching dropped stuff you might drop a knife. Do not try to catch the knife. Your Jiu-Flex is gonna tingle cuz somethings dropping. Its a trap...

    Fell over backwards when I slipped on ice, dropped my shoulder and did a backwards roll and jumped up to my feet. I do it so much messing around before class that it became second nature. Luckily I landed on the grass and not more ice...

    Most people don't know shit about Jiu Flex.

    I'm tellin' ya Jay. Just say to someone, "it's that jiu flex." They'll be like, "what's jiu-flex?!".
    Then you'll just have to say, "If only you 'knew'."

    I do catch tumbling things( Glass, plastic, metal, odd /regular shape) mid air usually with the right side up fairly fast. Sometimes I feel like I could have reacted a couple milliseconds later and still have caught it before it hit the floor. No joke this happens like once every couple months. Also no body managed to beat me in that hand slapping game. I played drums for 11 years so I am not sure if I developed reflexes and coordination because of that or thru jiujitsu, but I do experience the Jiu-flex or some variant of it for sure.

    To Ricks question - I like to practice that reflex by catching stuff that drops or I drop. Its always nice when someone is there to see you do it. I cant call it a Jiu-Flex though because I started as a striker first, if that makes sense.
    I find myself catching things I drop all the time now. I was never a striker, must be jiu flex.
