In October of 07, Wyoming Medical Center conducted a drill that involved receiving patients because of a simulated chemical assault here in Casper. During that drill, personal property were damaged and a couple of volunteers became extremely cold.
In order to receive patients into the Emergency Room, many procedures must take place. One procedure is to decontaminate, or remove the chemical from an injured patient before they enter the clean Emergency Room environment. Some patients are incapacitated or traumatically injured and must be cleaned by trained staff members. Manually decontamination trauma patients can subject health worker and volunteer patients to injury and damage to personal property. Some examples are hypothermia, accidental dropping from backboard due to the wet and cold shower environment, broken glasses/hearing aides, removing clothing and other liabilities.
To minimize problems associated with decontamination drills, I approached you with an idea of creating a Decontamination Dummy to replace contaminated trauma volunteer patients. The Dummy you have produced has been well received and will now take the place of non-ambulatory volunteers. In addition to decontamination, this new Decon Dummy can also be used as mock patients during “Surge Capacity” drills. I’m quite certain that more uses will arise.

“We still use the old 30 pound Big Blue Dummy that I purchased from O.K. Fine Products in the mid 90’s! It is still used by Police departments and Fighters at the Massachusetts Submission Academy. Big Blue’s toughest test of durability was control scenarios where Big Blue is being pulled hard by multiple Officers pulling against multiple subjects. After neck, joint locks, and the focus of “tug or war” type scenarios Big Blue stands the test of time!” “Big Blue is a high quality product.”

I bought one of your original Big Blue dummies many years ago for solo practice at home. After hundreds of hours of being tossed around my basement, he still looks like new. I thought about upgrading to the new deluxe dummy, but mine is still in perfect shape and working great!

I'm well know for my throws in competitions such as ESPN 2 Strike Force and K-1 super fights. Your training partner can only take so much abuse but when you have these dummies to train with you can really develop powerful throws. I use the dummies any chance I get to, it has enhance my throwing techniques and wrestling condition.

-Cung Le, October 2004

"Big Blue has been used in the mat room, as well as on a live fire range. Your training dummy has been kicked, punched, thrown, tackled, slammed, choked, dragged and stomped. I've used steel batons and steel toe shoes. I've shot Big Blue with paintballs at close range without any showing of damage or wear. I believe your close attention to detail will ultimately save the lives of many law enforcement officers."

Who is Frank Shamrock?

Here is Frank Shamrock!

This is Adam Pelter and he is demonstrating his Judo throw with the new dummy we named "Butchie"! The Matthews Police Athletic League enjoys"Butchie", which is our newest dummy, because it fits the smaller sized Judoka. Adam is 5 years old and can throw "Butchie" around with the greatest of ease. "Butchie" doesn't mind being the "Uke" at all, which makes him a wonderful addition to our school. Thanks for making it possible for the even the smallest Judoka to have a partner!

The Big Blue Dummy was my best training partner for years. It definitely made a big difference in my Judo, especially when I needed a partner who can take a lot of punishment. We all know, if you compete in national and international level judo tournaments, you are going to need a partner who does not quit on you. Big Blue became my best partner for throwing over and over without complaints. Any serious judo or jujitsu player will need the Big Blue dummy to take him or her to a different level.

I got my dummy on Monday. It's great! I put him in a gi and some old chemical warfare boots for protection. He gave me such a good workout that I had sore muscles. His head has just the right amount of resistance for strikes; I tried hooking slaps, elbows, headbutts and boxing combinations. I showed it to Burton Richardson, my JKD instructor, and he was impressed. Now if I can get him to buy a couple for our school because it's hard to find anyone who'll let me throw them full-power on concrete floors with 1.5 inch mats, he he he. Thanks for a great product.

I purchased a Big Blue about five years ago and my dojo, The Metro Fight Club, and I have been using it ever since. It is great!

-Walter A. Lamb, Fourth Dan Judo, Coach-Metro Fight Club, January 2001



"To be the best you must train with the best. You have all heard that. It's also true with training equipment. That's why I use BIG BLUE! This is one of the best pieces of training equipment that I have ever used. To be the best, use the best."

-Bart Vale, World Shootfighting Champ and Olympic Coach



"After countless hours of heavy use, the dummy showed no signs of breaking, wearing down, or getting tired. Even the heavily used areas such as the neck, arms and legs showed no signs of wearing out. I had my students punch and kick the dummy as hard as they could. Despite the beating, the dummy kept on ticking."

-Mike Young, Martial Arts Training, May 1999



"I've got to give the dummy an enthusiastic two thumbs up. It is an excellent training device for any grappler, regardless of how much experience you have. In addition, its a superb training tool for the puncher and kicker. You can't go wrong with this dummy. You'll improve your skills by leaps and bounds."

-Mike Young, Martial Arts Training, May 1999



"Recruits can now practice lethal techniques without fear of injury. The dummies are extremely well made and durable and have exceeded our wildest expectations."

-Land Force Central Command, Canadian Army (Uses the Big Blue series for hand to hand combat and sentry elimination)



"We have used our dummies for 8 to 11 hours a week for the last 2 years and they still look like new."

-Bart Vale, World Shootfighting Champ and Olympic Coach


"Using the dummies has increased the students' techniques by over 45%."

-6th Degree Judo Black Belt, Fred LeMond, National and International Judo Competitor (Has all of his students train with the 60# Big Blue and the Kid's Dummy)


"In my opinion, the grappling dummies from OK Fine Productions are the best training aids I have ever seen for ground control techniques and takedowns. I highly recommend them for police departments who are training their officers in Ground Control."

-Detective Dante Diotalevi, of the Emeryville, California Police Department (Using the Big Blue Dummies for all Tactical Training Seminars)



 "Thanks to Big Blue I can now practice techniques without killing my partner. These dummies are great for practicing sweeps and throws, because of the self supporting legs. At the same time the legs will bend if you want to roll with the Blue Dude."

-Sal Ambrosino, Product Tester, and Martial Arts Instructor
