Ninjas are off the hook. I plan on getting the training one day.

Opinions please.. I just read a book about it and have seen many moves. The book I read broke it down to the roots.

That's interesting about the feet. I'm gonna work on my feet more. I jump off my left leg and pump the left knee, then kick with my right and land on both.

That's a cool site. But we do a jump snap kick. A running jump snap kick when you pump the knee of the leg your not kicking with.

Another instructor made this pole the went up and extended out with a padding on it. I kick the bottom of it so we measure from the ground to the bottom of that. I did it bare foot so I think I would get higher with shoes on. There are other ways just has to have the measurements on the object. I do a running jump kick off one leg. I pump with the left knee and extend up with the right. In our contest we are not allowed to fall down. In other contest they are.

What's up everybody. I'm new and this past weekend my school put on a tournament and my instructor likes to put on a high kicking contest. Well I'm 5'10'' and I can jump pretty decent say about a 33-34 inch vertical. I kicked about 9'5'' inches high. I was wanting to know if there is anyone on this board or does anyone know anyone from other message boards or seen people kicking real high. Billy Blanks son and this Hawaiian dude went at it on ESPN. They were like 6'1'' and taller but they kicked up to 10'6''!!! My instructor thinks the world record is 10'9''. Me being 5'10'' I hope to eclipse 10 feet which is my next goal. I'm gonna keep training hard but I just want to know if theres any high flyers on this board. Also direct me to other message boards like this. Let's just say humbly I'm looking for challengers.
