I have a different style of using Kendo.
The way I and some of my friends do it without armour(but we will where gloves and other stuff) but we do it as we hit any part of the hand or the arm you lose that arm, if we hit both arms you win. If you hit the chest or the back or sides your opponent loses.If you hit a leg you have hop on that leg or crawl on your knees on the ground,if both legs are hitthen you can crawl on the ground with both legs.
