Man, almost makes me feel like taking up taekwondo again! :P
weird, when i did TKD it had a different grading system. we had yellow belt, blue belt, red belt, eac h of which had 3 stripes to attain. then black with 12 dans.
start on white, i did 2 gradings and got my yellow 2 stripes before dropping it :P
I heard there have been changes to the whole TKD system... maybe that's why, Alex!
else yours is just different, cos the one Imran did last time when he was a kid is the same grading system as the one I put down haha
