isshinryu5toforever Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I am very mildly into trick kicks, because for most of my martial arts career, I've been a fighter. Either bareknuckle or WTF TKD. Trick kicks are fun though, and a cool way to increase your athletic ability. In fact, there are a few people trying to start a trick kick club in Seoul. It's been fun. He who knows others is wise.

ps1 Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I used to do some of it a while back. In Kung Fu we did alot of fancy techniques. More along the lines of actual kicks though. Spinning and jump spinning kicks. The closest I ever got to anything like your vid is a barrel roll or a 540. Did well in some minor level competitions in the PKC. It's fun to watch and I think the level of athleticism it develops is great. But, ultimately, I really don't consider it martial arts as much as acrobatics or low level gymnastics.

grav3h3art Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 well, i still cant land a 540 kick therefore i kinda get frustrated at it... my 360 kick is good but i seem to not get the extra twist. I kinda use my shoulders for hte twist but who knows how to do it. Guess i need someone who knows how to do it and instruct me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Fun vid. I'd like to see some targets in there, to see if they really know where their kicks are going. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isshinryu5toforever Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Since a 540 starts out like a tornado kick, I'll refrain from using too much Korean haha, the back leg moves through first to build momentum, and the kicking leg follows. A 540 is achieved simply by folding under the back leg used for momentum, so that you land on the kicking foot facing the opposite direction of where you started.That sounds complicated. As basic as I can put it, instead of keeping the leg that comes off the ground first straight, bend it, and you should be able to land on the kicking leg, thus completing your 540.

ps1 Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I always just put the focus on my kicking foot. I would not allow anything else to touch the ground until it did. A good way to start is just to do a jumping round house and land on the kicking foot. This is the motion you'll need to add to the 360 you're already doing. You'll need to turn the hips into the kick hard then keep them turning to spot your landing. "It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenius."
