martialartsresearcher Posted October 29, 2003 Posted October 29, 2003 i was wondering. is the hurracain kick practical in a real situation or is it not such a good ideai to use a hurracain kick in a real street SD?

kempocos Posted October 29, 2003 Posted October 29, 2003 Two things I do not like about it 1 turning my back on the person 2 jumping in the air looks sharp during KATAS "If you don't want to get hit while sparring , join the cardio class"
Jussi Häkkinen Posted October 29, 2003 Posted October 29, 2003 I haven't ever seen a jumping and turning kick in a traditional karate kata. kempocos: Ryukyu Kempo?

TangSooGuy Posted October 29, 2003 Posted October 29, 2003 (edited) if it is the same kick i'm think of, sometimes called a tornado kick or cyclone kick as well, it can be made to work as an effective technique, but i doubt that i personally would ever use it in a "real" situation. It adds to the artistic side of things, though. I've been looking into this kick for awhile know, and for me, i have found that it works best when bouncing off an attacker's roundhouse kick. the timing has to be just right, but i can now land the kick on target about 80-90% of the time now. Is it practical, though? probably not. There are a ton of techniquues i would choose to employ before this one, but it's fun to figure out the best application for you for all your techniques. it's also fun to make it work in a sparring situation. Just be prepared to be hit/ knocked down halfway through the kick the first few times you try it... Edited October 31, 2003 by TangSooGuy

Sasori_Te Posted October 31, 2003 Posted October 31, 2003 I call it the Van Damme kick. I saw a guy try to use it at a bar when I was younger. Let's just say it didn't go well for him. He's probably still removing asphalt from his scalp. A block is a strike is a lock is a throw.
hajime Posted October 31, 2003 Posted October 31, 2003 i was wondering. is the hurracain kick practical in a real situation... I was wondering, what the heck is a hurricane kick? go on tell me what this is, I've never heard of it. Jumping, spinning back kick maybe? 700 hours of official training. Injury finished me dammit!1st Kyu Wado Ryu
martialartsresearcher Posted November 1, 2003 Author Posted November 1, 2003 well basicly the hurricane kick is were you jump up and spin kick your opponent in the face in mid-air, ya know what i mean? its just like in street fighter but you only similar to what ken and ryu does.ya know what i mean? well thanks guys.
delta1 Posted November 1, 2003 Posted November 1, 2003 In that case, I vote:not such a good ideai to use a hurracain kick in a real street SD Freedom isn't free!
