Jackfruit Wood • Traditional Pair
Traditional jackfruit (kathal) wood jori with thicker grips - a pair of practice clubs perfect for building arm and grip strength with coordination. The natural light weight of jackfruit wood provides excellent weight distribution and size for smoothly transitioning from Kai-Karlai to longer double hand Jori practice. The double hand coordination is what builds the coordination and strength for double hand ayudhs. The Jori size goes close to Pudi Karlai and still has slightly asymmetric weight distribution moving towards the ends like a gada, making it a great combination.
