You didn't really list mine, so I went with the closest variation, the spinning hook kick. What I really like is the spinning heel kick.

How is a spinning heel kick different from a reverse turn kick?

Just trying to understand the terminology...

The hooking kick is done with the leg snapping out at the target, and then driving through, in a snapping motion. I look at it as doing a side kick to a 45 degree angle, then rechambering for a round kick by pulling the heel of the kicking leg back towards the butt.

The spinning heel kick is done primarily with the leg straight, driving all of the momentum through the target in a big circle with the heel. There is a lot of weight and momentum in this kick.

Hmmm favorite kick?

What's the reverse turning kick then? I've always called the kick describe above as a reverse turn...But then again I've heard a twist kick called a reverse turn and a a hook kick called a snap kick (cos of the leg action)

I think the reverse turning kick is the reverse hooking kick. Maybe?

Ok I'm really confuzzled now :-? :lol:

Well what I call the reverse hook kick is where you spin around into the kick rather than keeping your body stationary and performing the hook kick with just your leg?!?!?
