What is your favorite strike?

[bvermillion]

I am just trying to get a good conversation started. I personally like the backfist.

[grubbogoppoly]

Whichever one lands

Out of those i voted for a side kick because its simple and fast. Ive cut into a few oncoming combos with it.

But my fav strikes arent there.

How about Triple Kick - body body head. Kind of like that.

Double Handstand Kick (or Morphues Kick as its called in our class)...thats good.

Favourite Strike

Interesting thread.

Are we talking single strikes or combos.

My own opinion :-

Single strike - Side Kick.
Combo - Roundhouse, Back Kick and possibly backfist.

wheres knee to the face?

[Thai Bri]

Palm Heel under the Jaw, with the hand maintaining contact, and then bending the wrist forwards to shove my eager fingers into the eyes.

Don't forget to wash your hands afterwards.

Where's hoofing random strangers square in the nuts and then running away screaming insanely? That's my favorite, I love it when that happens.

i'm kinda partial to two:

tiger paw and cobra strike

tiger paw - put your hand on a table, extend the fingers outward as far as they will go and bend the fingers so just the palm and the finger tips are touching the table top. hitting with the palm in the head will really rattle em. form the hand in this position as you move toward the target.

cobra strike - keep all the fingers together pull the wrist back so the hand is bent. send it to your target and snap the wrist just before impact. you can easily set up three of these to hit within a second. just like puttin a b.b. in a bottle and shaking it up, that is the brain when you hit the head.

what is favourite strike

I like the cobra grab, fingers facing forward and hand turned downward with thumb on top you move hand forward until it reaches beer bottle. Bring toward you and drink. Classic manouvere.

careful you may break the bottle.

[AdamTKD]

Tiger Grab

Even worse Huey you might even spill some of the beer.

Knee to the face is the best one yet, but I can't see a hammerfist on there. THAt IS DUMB. lol........Hammerfist to the head, ribs or locked joint is good becuase it makes me feel like a pissed off gorilla. Someone gets me into guard and then bam!! I lean back then unleash a few on his tummy to ease up his grip on me. People are primates and should fight like it(I don't mean do stupid monkey rolls, sorry wushu fans).

[Thai Bri]

I tried to knee someone in the face and hurt myself more than him. I connected with the thigh muscle, and had to hop about for a few days. Funnily enough I sustained the same injury some years before kneeing someone and catching them in the hip.

But the old knee has served me well for the most part. Personally I'd stick to kneeing squidgey bits.

[greyfox13]

ya injured yourself by kneeing someone in the face? take it easy gramps

[Thai Bri]

And the hip. Don't forget the hip you young whipper snapper.
