bushido_man96 Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 I've never heard of 'Gae Baek'. I have heard of a 'Tae Baek' though... Anyway, what does a twist kick look like? Are there any alternate names for it? I've never heard of that either.Keep posting,I practice the Chang 'on forms system (ITF style). Gae Baek is my 2nd dan form.The twist kick may also be called and inverted round kick.Does Gae Baek have a twist kick in it???????? Just curious as I presumed Tae Baek was the same form and it does not....unless I am really missing something!!! What is the system that you do Tae Baek in?? https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushido_man96 Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Definitely different forms...here are videos of each:Ga-Baek: Yep, that's my form. I do it a touch differently, with a little more flow. That was a good twist kick.Tae Baek: Check out the twisting kick in the Ga-Baek video...This was a cool form, too. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjanurse Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Nice form. I would enjoy learning it. The kid doing Tae baek was good-I too do it differently...the moves are the same but the flow is much different.

bushido_man96 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I enjoy doing Gae Baek a lot. I do it with a lot of power, and since there are no slow moves in it, I think it fits my body style well. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do it with a lot of power, and since there are no slow moves in it, I think it fits my body style well.I'm just learning Gae Bek...it's a nice form and it's definitely a step up from the previous one I learned (Po Eun). I like the flying side kick although I know that will take some time to get right. My weakest area is in the roundhouse kicks...What height do you do the twisting kick at? Fortunately for this over-40 person, we do that kick to the groin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately for this over-40 person, we do that kick to the groin.In my version of Gae-Baek, we don't do the flying side kick. It is just a hopping side kick. The twist kick, I do right at around waist level. I don't do it very high, and the instructor doesn't recommend it very high. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
