Nobody else has anything to post? We'll I'm always game for putting it out there for others to judge lol, check this out. I have never really done much roundhouse kicking with the ball of my foot. In Tang Soo Do we focus on top of foot, kickboxing we focus on the lower shin, tonight after my students tested I felt frisky and tried a speed break with the ball. It was my youth boards so not the thickest, they are .75 of an inch. Adult boards are 1" for us so what can I say, we were out haha. Man I never realized my toes were lacking the flexibility to move out of the way so much!!!

What you guys think? http://youtu.be/zhn3DNOuU7Y

I'm red. Seems like that just happened, but it's been two years already. Time really creeps up on you.

We'll submission wrestling is accurate. Nice job! Was that your only fight? Never been much into sport fighting but cool to see guys that really lay it out there like that. Wastlander posted one as well, also cool!

Nicely done. The round kick is one of my favorite breaks to do.

Here are some breaks from my 4th dan testing. I really botch the spin heel kick: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9wYR-mMZxU8

Not pictured was the flying side kick.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing that. I was wondering how long it was going to take the ref to see that he had gone to sleep.

Thanks, no I've had another, a second round submission loss, the organization that one was under are real nazis about licensing rights though. Noah's fight makes me happy every time I see it, that kick was was sooooo well timed.

Cool man! You know, taekwondo practitioners always have real nice kicks, looks good man. In karate (primarily what I do anyways) we focus on kicks maye half the time, I think it shows.

So based in the fact that I saw you do the kick I did, is there a way to get your toes out if the way better. As I said we focus on the top of the foot, not ball for roundhouse, and for bouts breaks I always use shin which is more kickboxing really. If you watch my video you'll heare talking about it though, how hard it was off me to hit with the ball without hitting my toes!

If I may chip in, a lot of it comes down to angle of the target in relation to you. With ball of the foot you have to be more of a 45 degree angle to the target and make a real point of turning your back foot and then your hip over. Otherwise you can't get the ball of the foot prominent enough. Need to end up in a position where the heel is higher than your toes. Instep kick is at less of an angle and more with the board directly in line with you.
