Those were both 540 kicks, good job who ever did them, i cant do them yet. The 540 tornado (or round house) looked a bit weird but it was still done and the board still broke.
I am having a hard time understanding the reasoning behind spining more than 180 degrees to deliver any technique. Someone enlighten me as to the reason ,unless it is for one's own ego,maybe to show off,or it might be to demonstrate that one can spin around without falling down,not sure really. Curious. I am thinking maximum force,minimum effort to destroy the opponent? Am I wrong here?
@justaman6972 It's not about force. Once you face someone who does this kick on you, you'll understand. Each spin is basically a fake - it's hard to explain.
From the moment he starts, you'll expect a kick and shuffle back to dodge it, but you won't shuffle enough, and when the kick comes, he'll be within range of your head. That is, if you're not trained to fight against TKD.
This is just my opinion: being able to do the kick is one thing but being able to apply the kick with enough power, technique, and accuracy to brake a board is excellent. I think that gives you the right to call yourself good Nice kicks!!! (my 2 cents)
i agree with you but i dont think the power is the issue... the kick is really fast.( not just his kick but the kick itself) the accuracy is the key.. i still cant do a very pretty 540 :( (my 2 cents lol)
Post a video response, not just a plain text comment.
PS: I can do a 1080 kick and a Hurriacane Katrina kick. And my belt is so black, its a blackhole with enought gravity con consume the entire solar system.
Oh I dnt know about that, all i know is as I explained it is CORRECT for what i percieve to be as a 'Tae Kwon Do' 540 degree kick, whether it originates from tae kwon do or not.
ok i guess but i was thinkin abt a regular 540...it goes 180, 360, 540, 720...each kick adds an extra 180 degrees and i guess that was wut i was suggesting
not sayin that i'm a pro at this.. i only have experience in real fights but i yea its true that in school fights are completely different to real ones..
anyways.. that first kick is a tornado kick from what i know.. other than that.. the 540 was pretty decent
You land on your back (non-kicking) when executing a tornado kick, when you land on your front (kicking) foot it's a 540. I've also heard that as a bali kick in TKD.
Hmm... Actually the first one is a pretty decent 540 roundhouse. It's going up, over, and down with the same foot, and I count that as three half-turns. The 540 hook is textbook as well, with the other two rotations done in the air.
some people may say this move is impractical,but i think this move is good for suprising the opponent,catching them off guard,like they'd expect a 360 kick and therefore try to block it,then when you spin into the 540 and their mind would be too preoccupied by bracing themself for the 360 and is therefore open to the 540 hit
Thats actually a 360 round not a 540, you can tell because he kicks with his front leg, I've done that one; however, the 540 hook is quite impressive. I haven't quite figured it out yet
If it was 360 - I would end up facing the same way I start - I end up facing the opposite direction...so I call it a 540 or a "cheat" 540 because you do the first 1/2 turn with 1 foot on the ground - honestly, I could care less what people call it - it is what it is...
Yeah I see what you are talking about, a cheat 540 would be a good description. Its a good kick none the less. Still, props on the 540 hook, I think that is very impressive
@bluewavetkd A 540 kick these days has also just come to mean a round/crescent kick which lands on the kicking leg. 'Generally' a kick done in this manner will cause the person to spin a extra at the end. These kicks were great; very good form.
@bluewavetkd agree, i enjoy these breaking cuz it impressive to watch but, the first one he did is a 360 and he land after spinning another tour. if is a 540, he would kick with the left legs when the first spin is finish.
@bluewavetkd Dont listen to that fag, the first one wasnt a 540, but the other was a perfect well done 540, so fuck all those smartass, just dont respond to those guys
@SteveHickson8 they dont count the rotation to call it a 540. it is called 540 by People. It is the Name. his last kick is 720 or 540 hook. bla bla just a name of a kick. dont count rotation to call it that way. that is why they dont call it a "540 degree kick" instead of 540 itself.
ive seen that kick at extremely high speed in the middle of a fight. its hard to master but this fast "fancy" as u call it kick is so powerful that it can be lethal. Get ur facts straight
That kick is telegraphed like crazy. The only way anyone is gonna get hit by the full force of it is by standing still. Just by watching some sanshou, those guys grab kicks all the time! And fighting some guy on the street, the second he sees you spinning around he's just gonna dive in and tackle you, trying to out muscle you. Or at the very least he's gonna back up. And let's not forget that unlike boards and sports participants, good street fighters know about blocking/dodging.
Er... yeah. I've fought some TKD guys before. They thought they could handle someone with "no training" and they thought their "black belt experience" would put them a "step above" your average Joe... so they had an inflated ego, wanted to show off how tough they were...
And then they ended up tripping over their own feet because they weren't used to fighting somewhere outside of a school. I didn't even have to touch them before they fell on the ground.
Lol, I never claimed I was a master, and I don't feel the need to prove myself to some guys on the internet.
If you don't already know that there is a difference between fighting in the school and fighting in real life, and if you don't already know that some people cannot make the switch, then you need more experience. Nothing I show you will change that.
Again, I'm not saying it's a bad technique, but not everyone can do it successfully.
I'm not saying it's a BAD technique. I'm just saying it's difficult to pull off.
I agree that a well trained person can do it, even in a real fight in uneven and unfamiliar ground and unstable footing. But for every 1 person I see able to pull off the technique, I see 10 others that, LITERALLY, fall flat on their faces. (I've fought a lot of TKD guys, friendly and unfriendly)
Unless you KNOW for CERTAIN you can do a technique like this, DON'T. Simple is best. Simple is safe.
lol i can do a 720 full spin (no cheat) but i cant even get the leg up at 540 xD. Guess i need more practice (i practiced tricking but ive just got into tkd like 1 month ago so yeah...)
I love how the majority of posts on this clip are about what the techniques are called. The fact is, a 540 spin hook and cheat 720 are the same technique. A Boli is a cheat 540 round house...but then again, I guess it depends on who you ask...:-)
yea That hook kick is the 540 not the roundhouse but still this is awsome I can do a roundhouse as welll but its so hard fro me to pull me leg around to do a hoook can someone help me.
Awesome kicks, your fighting style has a much wider range of kicks than kickboxing. Question though, have you ever had a match with a MMA/Muay Thai Kick Boxer??
I practice Olympic Style Taekwondo - I never fought any MMA/Muay Thai - I coach some competitive students, who I spar with, but I don't compete anymore. (i am old guy now! :-)
hey r u right legged?i am and i do normal 540 rounds w/ my right, then shud i rotate the same way(CCW) n kick w/ left for 540 hooks? @_@ im so confuzed
Nah, I think only the second was a 540. The former looks more like a 360° roundhouse. I could do that when I was a sixth kup (green belt); now I can't :P (I am no longer training... :().
the first is 540 round house - if it was 360, you would end up looking the same direction you start, but you turn an extra 180 and land facing the opposite direction.
I don't think so. In order to be a 540 degrees, you should turn 540 in air, while you are doing only 180 degrees in air, and the other 360° is done at ground. I think 540 degrees is called so because you turn for 540° in air, not on ground. So you should have jumped first, in order to do a 540°. That circular kick you have done is quite simple (for me).
edraith is right, the only reason he look the other way is because the next kick is facing that way. Watch it in slow motion again, the back foot turn 180 leaving the ground then the other foot jump for the kick is another 180, 180 + 180 = 360. For the next kick, instead of kicking the roundhouse, he throws another 180 turning the kick into a back hook kick, 180 + 180 + 180 = 540.

OMG. i do nto understand tornado, cheat etc.
first one: right foot in front one complete rotation kick and the kicking leg (right) lands on the back = 360+180=540 deg.
the second one:starting by right foor in front, finishe with right foot in front at the completion of the technique = 720deg.
this is a perfect dispaly of their difference.
youstar by tornado, then with 540 and then hopefully by 540 as you progress. and yes not effective but very difficult and nice to watch

Awesome kicks, your fighting style has a much wider range of kicks than kickboxing. Question though, have you ever had a match with a MMA/Muay Thai Kick Boxer??

I practice Olympic Style Taekwondo - I never fought any MMA/Muay Thai - I coach some competitive students, who I spar with, but I don't compete anymore. (i am old guy now! :-)

that was way more then a 360 ? :S thats a 540 ... no?

Nah, I think only the second was a 540. The former looks more like a 360° roundhouse. I could do that when I was a sixth kup (green belt); now I can't :P (I am no longer training... :().

the first is 540 round house - if it was 360, you would end up looking the same direction you start, but you turn an extra 180 and land facing the opposite direction.

I don't think so. In order to be a 540 degrees, you should turn 540 in air, while you are doing only 180 degrees in air, and the other 360° is done at ground. I think 540 degrees is called so because you turn for 540° in air, not on ground. So you should have jumped first, in order to do a 540°. That circular kick you have done is quite simple (for me).

I agree - what ever. It is what is. Thanks by the way!

edraith is right, the only reason he look the other way is because the next kick is facing that way. Watch it in slow motion again, the back foot turn 180 leaving the ground then the other foot jump for the kick is another 180, 180 + 180 = 360. For the next kick, instead of kicking the roundhouse, he throws another 180 turning the kick into a back hook kick, 180 + 180 + 180 = 540.
