Cybren Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 I'm not much a fan of the hook kick. It seems counter-intuitive, and under powered... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aefibird Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 My favourite is side kick, although I also like crescent kicks 'cos I'm good at them. "Was it really worth it?

Midkiff Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 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.

Shotokan-kez Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 The first option, we call it mawashi geri, I just love itI 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 Walk away and your always a winner. https://www.shikata-shotokan.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarateK Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 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!! Karate Ni Sentinashi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italian_guy Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Karate Kid Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 side thrust kick because its my most poweful and my fastest kick. "When I punch, I do not hit, it hits all by itself."Bruce Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
