Impressive display of skill here by Ricky's Phantom!
A jump chop to land a match-deciding bull-terrier's grip on the outer part of Humsup 2's left arm causes Humsup2 to be totally helpless and incapable of counter-attack.

Viper, thanks for the great write-up for our Singapore trip as it reflects exactly my sentiment for the whole event. Really amazed by the fellowship of all the FS brothers from SG built up over the years thanks to their dedication and passion for FS that surpasses mine many times over.

While the FS highlight was to see the current world record T.bha size currently kept by Master Kim(holy cow big!), it was most enjoyable for me to get to meet and know some of the SG bros I haven't met before, Bro Ken, Swee, Ah Huat, Vincent and Edwin as well as to get to know better for those I have met before. Most interesting to listen to their stories and jokes, wheather FS related or not. Nice of Bro Seng, Bro Edwin, Bro Ricky, Bro Rudy and Bro Ken to stay up to nearly 2.30am to chit chat in our room after the BBQ. It was heart warming too to see some of our FS bros bringing along their family member(s) to this gathering, Randy with his whole family, Master Kim and his wife, Ah Huat and his son, and Bro Ken with his wife-to-be, Tina. Big thanks to her as she helped to prepare a lot of the BBQ food.

Thanks to Bro Ken for initiating this gathering and all the Bros for making it happen and treating Viper and me the BBQ food and stay, fetching us, with Master Kim, the next day to hunt and treating me Wantan mee.
Thanks to Master Kim for showing us his Unreal-Peno of unreal size! and for his connection so we can chill out in the boat-house.
Thanks to Bro Ricky for fetching us to Marina Bay and let me relive a bit of memory of my past in Singapore by passing by NUS, and also showing us some of his hunting places.
Thanks to Bro Seng for his gifts and advice on how to take care of his gifts.
And thanks to Bro BTL for welcoming us at the airport, the delicious and extremely generous chicken rice lunch as well as japanese dinner before seeing us off the next day. Don't worry about the small problem we had hor... no big deal, just lesson learnt. Pity we didn't get to see your farm, but I'm sure there will be a chance next time, which by then should be even more matured with thicker spider lily growth accomodating more and larger spiders.

Definately the largest and most memorable FS gathering for me.

Last but not least, courtesy of Bro Ricky, we show the world our FS group is always current with the times...

MCA... Cannot la , ...no offence to any MCA supporters hor, I am referring to the spider...

Some sort of recent design project by someone named Bryan Chen, interesting attempt to bring back the olden method of keeping spiders!

Walau eh!!! Considered among the best fights in FS history! A very clean fight, no unusual tactics, just push and chops but yet amazingly exciting! In part, thanks to the commentators too! A battle of pure FS pushing power working the whole stage. Both FS very much equal. Great videoing too, love the angle and the coverage. Really enjoyed it! Thanks to all who contributed!

Yeah, Good Fighter was super aggressive, going all out, determine to win the fight but Toa Pao was like Ip Man, expertly parrying all the attacks coming his way and finally winning the fight. Would love to see round 2.

Something to share which I find interesting.
Today I was strolling in a park near my house, when I noticed this shadow...looks good size.

Confirmed male T.bha. Actually there is another shadow which is a female but blocked by leaf in the picture.
But cannot catch!
Because I was wearing my working attire(after work) and there is no way to catch it without being in knee deep mud and water because the leaves are actually from a type of water plant growing above the water at the edge of the lake in the park! (The top picture I can take because my camera had zoom function)

The water is not temporarily there because it is dry season now, which means the fs is permanently staying above water and very close to the water surface infact.

Very nice, Viper.
What area is that? Housing area with vacant land area where people do some farming?
Did you go there purposely to find fs?
