Menjo Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Yea but in general i dont think the average person (someone not as skilled as that guy) would be able to make that kick practical, however i think some could and a little luck of course, "Time is what we want most, but what we use worst"William Penn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pers Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Best place to practice it is in the swimming pool ! that where I did a few many years ago ! yes it does feel very strong and if it hits something it will for sure cause considerable damage but as someone else mentioned the risks are too much . never give up !

kitsune_no_tama Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 idk... maybe if your against the wall and you can get a push from it? your wouldnt need to make a run then. "Karate is an art. It must be regarded as such with its entirety of philosophical thought and development of the mind in harmony with the body. If it isn't thought of this way it is valueless. It is like eating only the bitter skin of the apple while leaving the sweet inner meat untasted. It is this crucial premise that is being overlooked today, and if the tide is not turned, I must predict the demise of the art.

Bleeding Lion Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 i dont understand why ppl jump quickly to say high kicks in general (w/ or w/o jumping) are bad in real scenarios. time properly they can be devastating. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence thus, is not an act, but a habit. --- Aristotle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Exactly - high kicks can quickly end a fight.... there have been a couple of examples in the UFC of this..... ill leave that to people that know it better than me to list the fights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menjo Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Really? I never get to watch much of the UFC since they never seem to be on tv without having to pay... "Time is what we want most, but what we use worst"William Penn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
