Hey, I was training at STUK the other day and decided to join in a weapons class. They seem to focus mainly on staff techniques & forms, and they have a shortage of spare ones lying around, so I bought myself a staff, a nice big heavy one, probably twice the mass of the average ones they sell (I assume it's made out of waxwood).
Anyway I was wondering if anybody can help me out with tips for keeping my staff in good condition, I hear things about treating it with oil or something?
Also, if anybody else here who trains at STUK could give me a hand identifying the form, as the monk who was teaching just said "OK, now Stick form!". I *assume* it's Ing Shou Gun, or a version of it (it seems pretty similar), but I haven't done any weapons training in the past (at least not Shaolin-style) so I'm not 100% sure.
