bushido_man96 Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 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. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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) "Everything has its beauty, but not everyone sees it." ~ Confucius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushido_man96 Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I agree, DWx. That is how I see it as well. I should have been more elaborate in my explanation. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
