siufeifei Posted January 20, 2005 Posted January 20, 2005 It's the best way i can describe it. In the Second form, from a Wing Arm, you turn stance and screw the wing arm into an upwards snap type punch. It comes from under the bridge and looks like an uppercut. It's about outside line recovery to the centre, or stealing the inside line and comes from under the bridge. It isn't really an uppercut but I can't think of how else to describe the Japanese punch I was talking about. I can't think of anything else from any other style that does something similar. ohayo gozaimasu, o genki desu ka.
street fighter Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 Uppercut, I have centerlined from chest or ab level to throat and face I guess this could be confused with an uppercut, but to be fair I have only studied concepts and I am not familiar with all of the proper terms and names. After a trap the next open shot may be the face or neck so the "uppercut" was taken in flow but, it is not like the uppercuts in the san shou or boxing techniques. Survivor
ovine king Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 if you're doing that from a trap (the trapping hand) then i'm guessing you mean you've switched hands and just 'shot' the free hand to the jaw area whilst walking forward. earth is the asylum of the universe where the inmates have taken over.don't ask stupid questions and you won't get stupid answers.
street fighter Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 with two hands I try and keep one free for striking or for defense, but when I get in close enough I prefer the elbow strikes. Survivor
ovine king Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 well, you don't trap with two hands anyway so one hand will always be free, else you're the one who's trapped..... earth is the asylum of the universe where the inmates have taken over.don't ask stupid questions and you won't get stupid answers.

ovine king Posted January 26, 2005 Posted January 26, 2005 what? all i did was point out something that didn't make sense. fine. i'll know next time to ignore it. earth is the asylum of the universe where the inmates have taken over.don't ask stupid questions and you won't get stupid answers.
