My school is Sun Yi's Academy, under the Traditional Taekwondo Association (TTA), and we do the Chang Hon forms without knee spring. However, we don't do all the forms that the ITF does.

GM Young Ik Suh's form of TKD doesn't teach the sine wave. Of which, I'm very thankful for.

The practice of the sine wave, especially the overly executed sine wave drives me dizzy. Are we on a carousel now??

Shindokan teaches, and this is our way, that the sine wave kills the power at the apex curve (the very absolute top of the power curve). Many styles of the MA shy away from the sine wave; so, there must be something in that!!

Which ones do you skip? Do you also have shotokan forms?

Ones in the black belt ranks. The lower ranks are all pretty much intact.

Loads of groups in the UK who don't do sine wave but practice Chang Hon. Off the top of my head the biggest is probably TAGB (part of Taekwondo International under Grandmaster CK Choi). We also have smaller groups like the GTI and many independent schools who do Chang Hon but don't do dinner wave.

For international groups there's Hee Il Cho's AIMAA.

You do find it elsewhere though. Just not by the same name. e.g. Jack Dempsey's Falling Step in boxing

Jack dempseys fallit step is not sine wave. And to those Sine wave supporters like yourself claiming that it has been exaggerated in recent time, check out general chois own demonstrations of it on youtube. He is rocking up and down as if its the Titanic. Extremely bouncy instructional.
