Akima Posted April 11, 2005 Share Posted April 11, 2005 Boards don't hit backWould people PLEASE stop quoting Bruce Lee's characters in movies,... especially when it's totally out of context [bruce DID do breaking, the character was just responding to the other character's "show" ).quote]Read the whole thread and not just my comment and you will see that I used the the quote in the same context! Which is why I said it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjburns77 Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 My father did the finger tip thrust years ago... But it was not his first break.. It took him months of prep work to prepare his finger tips.. I think that that is a hard break mentally... As well as phyically... I have not done it YET.. I will live my life at level 10...

MJB55 Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 My first break was a reverse punch thru one board, I worked up to 4 boards, but now i prefer knife hand and elbow, for kicks I like step side and front kickmikeb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternalRage Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 I like 3 station board break where you do a "split kick" (basically a side kick and front kick at same time - front split) and then a roundhouse with the sidekicking leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aodhan Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 First break - upset ridge hand, 1 board.Best break - speed break of two patio bricks I copied off a guy in the US Open breaking championships - Patio brick stood up on a cinderblock, another cinderblock and then another patio brick, break the lower patio brick then the upper as it falls.Most fun - 9 boards at a demo that had Superfoot Wallace as a guest. Still have a piece signed by him.Aodhan There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.-Douglas Everett, American hockey player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sidekick? I've seen that done before. Very cool. Would like to try it someday myself. "One who controls himself is stronger than one who controls others."

Aodhan Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Yeah, two side kicks. I think the guy's name is Chip something, if you catch a repeat of the XMA special they show on discovery (Science of the martial arts or something like that), they show a segment that has the break. Occasionally ESPN2 will show the breaking championships from a couple years ago where he originally did it.Basically, take a cinderblock, stand it on end, stand a patio edging brick up on it. Balance a cinderblock on top of that, then another patio brick.Break the lower one then the upper one with side kicks, both basically speed breaks. I racked my ankle quite a few times with the middle cinderblock getting the timing right.
