Aodhan Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Ok call me old and traditional but what is a 540?It's sometimes called a "tornado" kick as well. Basically, its a jump spin 360 kick where you land on your kicking leg. This gives you an extra 1/2 spin (or 180), thus equaling 540 degrees in the spin.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...
Balrog Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 My favorite is a plain vanilla #1 side kick. I love to stick it right into the middle of my opponent's attack and "feed 'em the foot". Ruins their whole day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruins their whole day. For the uninitiated, #1 side kick in the ATA is done with the lead leg, no steps involved. Just pick it up and kick. And I think even just SEEING your feet would ruin some days, sir!Yes, sir, I know.

Dont call me Sir Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Hook kick with an immediate round kick (Don't put the foot down) has been a staple in my repertoire for years.AodhanThat's an awesome sparring technique, especially if you keep the knee chambered and the only movement is from the knee onwards.The Hooking kick causes a startle/flinch response and just as they lower their guard to counter the Turning Kick hits home.DCMS.
