My favourite is side kick, although I also like crescent kicks 'cos I'm good at them. :D

My favorite kick is the side thrust kick. It is very fast if performed correctly and has a lot of power. Also you never turn your back to the opponent which let's you see any counterattack. It also has good range.

The first option, we call it mawashi geri, I just love it

I agree i love mawasi geri, and reverse mawasi geri. I find sidekicks difficult to execute properly in a sparring situation. But i like also the side snap kick

Against the pad I love to do what you called front push kick, maegeri, relieves a lot of stress for me - plus like Aefibird, am good at them, got highest mark poss at our last grading for it.

In sparring I guess its pretty typical to like mawashageri or even ura-mawashageri if feeling lucky!!

I'm not very leg-flexible but I like to use front kicks (Mostly snap but also push). I'm not so good with the other kicks
