Favourite/Preferred Technique you use in tournaments?

[Red Triangle student]

Hi, I was just wondering what techniques people seem to favour when they are competing in Tournaments?

 

I will list the commmon techniques that are used and others.

I'm not telling!!!

I think most points come from Uraken and Mawashi.

I prefer the O-Soto-geri

[ramymensa]

go long legged martial artists !!!

 

Mawashi is the preffered .. Nice.

 

I like leg techniques because I'm tall and quite flexible (took a long time, but it's worth the effort). I also like punches .. combinations and counter attacks. As for what works ... it depends on the match itself, the opponent, your inspiration ...

My Favourite is to feint a mae geri (front snap kick) then turn it into a jodan mawashi geri when the defender attempts to block it.

 

My second favourite technique is a leading hand face punch (mackan zuki) and follow up with a leading leg mawashi geri

[Jussi Häkkinen]

What in earth are "Hurracaine" (I think you mean "hurricane"), "mia-geri" (maegeri?) or kizame-zuki (kizami-zuki?).

 

Well, I maybe can live with a poorly translitterated Japanese, but what is that "hurricane" you mentioned? I've always thought that hurricane is a natural disaster, not a karate technique.

The black belt at our schools always does that, im used to it

 

If you ever tried that on a tournament with me, youd be up for a huge suprise.

I like using Uraken (back-fist).

 

If I've guessed correctly, the "hurricane" that's referred to in this poll is a type of kick.

 

However, he could be meaning a natural disaster - an extreme way to win a tournament, by getting the weather on your side!!
