Ray Terry raymail@hpwsrt.cup.hp.com ------------------------------ From: Date: Tue, 11 May 1999 08:27:15 -0700 (PDT) Subject: eskrima: Grandmaster Dizon Info (fwd) GM Lazo was interviewed in the recent issue of Filipino Martial Arts magazine. He mentioned that he had studied under F.Dizon, so I asked him via email about Dizon using the style name De Cuerdas. The following is his response. Ray - ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Forwarded message: Date: Mon, 10 May 1999 00:40:52 EDT Subject: Grandmaster Dizon Info To: rterry@best.com Dear Mr. Terry I had heard GM Dizon say "Tapos ako sa De Cuerdas," meaning he finished or passed De Cuerdas. First I thought that he was referring to the success of passing through the tunnel test because Cuerdas as understood in the Philippines means "a stretched string of a guitar," but it also means a tighten spring which was used in the tunnel of death test. All along I understood that he knows Eskrima that can pass the Tunnel of Death. Dizon is Visayan and Cabales is the same. He probably made it appear that his Eskrima is De Cuerdas to Cabales to indicate the quality of his art and it eventually turned into De Cuerdas. Personally I understood it to be an Eskrima that passed the Tunnel of Death or De Cuerdas tunnel. An Eskrima that can pass the Tunnel test has to be superior. It has been said that people who went through this test prepared their coffin ahead of time because very few passed it. The Legendary story about Dizon mentioned that he passed the test without injury and difficultly, which indicates that his personal expertise on his Eskrima is exceptional. De Cuerdas or any other name if it deals with the stick still is Eskrima.
