  1. We're talking sweeps, not kicks. Sweeps don't "snap"..they flow through the target, like the ankle or knee. If your snapping your foot at a ankle instead of "sweeping" through it, then you're kicking the ankle, which technically, isn't a sweep. EDIT: Think of it this way. A kick wants maximum power to drive through an opponent..right? Well, a sweep doesn't need max power. Rather, it works against weak parts of your opponents body, such as joints and where his foot makes contact with the ground. A sweep isn'ta penetrating technique, but rather a technique designed to move the designated target to somewhere else. Does that make sense? Yes, but definitions aside what advantage does keeping the leg straight have?
  2. but... why would you keep your leg straight? you'd get more power from the snap if you bent it first, right?
  3. Karate has groundfighting but I'm sure a good grappler would destroy a karateka on the ground
  4. Crane is spelled with a 'C'.
  5. i'm talking about a sweep
  6. what are some good videos of tournaments that have some good full contact striking with sweeps and throws and stuff but no groundfighting?
  7. I've noticed that when people sweep, they never bend their leg they always keep it straight. Wouldn't bending the leg and then snapping it out add power to the sweep?
  8. soi would you rather learn muay thai under a bad teacher or Aznkarateboi's Gumming style under a great teacher?
  9. there is now a new sytyle. its called aznkarateboi's gumming style.for training u must knock out your teeth. then you must use tactics to enter and gum you ropponents eyebalsl g95 champ even the best teacher couldnt teach my style and make it good
  10. dont you learn grasshopper kung fu? don't you? your a bit inconsistent i daresay. in a recent post you were telling us of the merits of the double jump kick and suddenly your a woeful mantis practitioner? what is this?
  11. the back stance is alright, but the front stance is a poor fighting stance so i hope you don't mean that
  12. one is a badly done drawing, the other appears to be a monkey
  13. I think flash is trash even with basics. Anyways, the straight sword vs. the Katana was fantastic. The straight sword was really cool albeit unrealistic.
  14. I am already a member of a kung fu school but the school doesn't really teach lots of practical self defense. Do you think the program is good for street self defense? On the site they said that the reason for only haveing 55 techniques is because you could adapt those techniques to many situations. Does the video course teach the three level technique thing of kenpo?
  15. Does anyone know anything about IKCA kenpo? I've seen it mentioned on numerous forums and it has a good reputation.
  16. based on what i've heard and seen kenpo is very good.
  17. what sparring rules do you have at yoru dojo?(level of contact, prohibited striking zones etc.) also what protective equipment do you have to wear?
  18. breakdancer answer my questions
  19. 6 1/2 hours at the school a week and i train every morning for 30 minutes
  20. ok in a previous post you said your grasshopper kung fu teacher was a scam. Then you said you did mantis. now grasshopper kung fu? what is it with the inconsistencies? tell me! i demand that you respond to this post!
  21. What if he figured wallets are easier to take from dead bodies?
  22. i think it looks cool
  23. how do you get veins in your forearm to pop out?
  24. then... why don't you grab them while controlling them? wouldn't that give you better control?
