If the shaman has approved them to compete, then the men can go straight to the arena.

Apart from that, what is no less important to do before starting a duel is to check the rattan that will be used.

Rattan weapons will be measured in the same length, namely 80 centimeters long, with handles made of wood.

Before rubbing, use water that has been given a spell or incantation.

According to the community, the spell water has the property of preventing pain even if the blow is hard.

However, the pain will only be felt after the game is finished or when the player arrives at the house.

After the ritual of giving holy water to the rattan is complete, the two males or players can enter the playing arena accompanied by the shouts of the audience.

This game requires the men to take off their clothes, cover their heads with a piece of cloth, and wrap their left hands, so they can ward off their opponents' attacks.

Both players must also wear cloth up to their knees when competing.

The conditions that apply to this duel are that you are not allowed to attack by tricking or butting, you are not allowed to attack the head or waist down.

The blow will only be considered valid if it hits the opponent's back.
