Cybren Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 I'm not much a fan of the hook kick. It seems counter-intuitive, and under powered...
aefibird Posted May 17, 2006 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? Only time and death may ever tell..." The Beautiful South - The Rose of My CologneSheffield Steelers!
Midkiff Posted May 17, 2006 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. Shindo Jinen Ryu Ryobu Kai-Second Degree Brown Belt
sliknik Posted June 26, 2006 Posted June 26, 2006 My favorite kick is reverse round house kick, spinning side kick, jumping front kick, spinning round house kick https://www.kempojitsu.co.ukhttps://www.hyogendo.com
Shotokan-kez Posted June 26, 2006 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
KarateK Posted June 26, 2006 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
italian_guy Posted June 26, 2006 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
y2_sub Posted June 26, 2006 Posted June 26, 2006 Thai roundhouse for sure .. Moon might shine upon the innocent and the guilty alike
The Karate Kid Posted June 27, 2006 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
