Saturday, my 13-year-old son broke these boards as part of his Taekwondo test for his green belt. So, this is today's unusual macro. I saved it for St. Patrick's Day since it was his green belt! LOL! He broke this board with a roundhouse kick with his foot.
@swilde@sarasdadandmom@lynnilou Thanks so much. @ceilidh He's been taking martial arts since he was 6 and has been breaking boards since then. He actually earned his black belt in Karate before we moved from Illinois. But these boards for Taekwondo are thicker than the ones he broke in Karate. Luckily, he has huge feet, so it's no problem for him. Hopefully, he'll make one more belt before we move again. He should be able to just continue at another Taekwondo dojo once we get to NC. @digitalrn My husband misses the classes, too. He was about 6 months from his black belt when the Army sent him to a school and he had to stop. He tried to do some mixed martial arts stuff there, but his back and neck were in too bad of shape.

@olivetreeann Actually, he broke this board with his foot, I forgot to add that.
