I'll just post frank comment. No offense. Turning kicks especially using the upper part of the feet are only suitable for sports fighting. Not ideal in reality unless you are wearing safety boots with metal top. In reality, turning kicks are more ideal for blocking. You need kicks with direct thrust such as sidekick, front kick, back kick, etc to fight thugs. Kicks that do not inflict much damage, the robber or thug would charge forward towards you if he is not down.
you've got great kicks man but next time, watch what you name the video, these are Roundhouse kick variations, and turning roundhouses(which is what i believe you meant by "turning kick") are just a variation of roundhouses so its kinda included in "Roundhouse kick variations" but still pretty good
These are good kicks for karate but they are mostly show kicks, only contact is needed to score points in karate. Now im not saying these would not hurt if they hit you because hell yea they would hurt but they are not kicks that are rib breakers or knockout kicks. Good video tho man
@dirtywhiteboymma something i have come to use recently is a reverse feint, so spin like your going to do a back kick or reverde hook and land the leg behind. often your opponent wil then see an oppertunity to move in and thats when you kick the side kick towards thier chest (with your front leg). in my experience it works very well, let me know what you think.
If you utilize the extremely powerful side kick (JKD version, or even Sambo, w/seizing hand/wrist), what do you use as feint, to set it up, or what "series" (be they feints, actual faster attacks, etc.) of movements do you use to make certain the kick gets in, &/or about your safe recovery, if missed? Pretty, & mean that w/sincere appreciation. I've gotten into a phase of poetic movements, in past couple yrs., again.
Realy awesome ! ~ although some shall miss the point of it all in your video and movements , I favorited & subbed you ! ~ Nice moves bro , GR8 video ! glad to have you here , I hope you subb back ! .. cheers ! keep making these wonderful videos ! =) gus
@kidcornchip I agree with a bit of your comment, but many of us critique so he as a matrial artist can improve. That is what the mind set a martial artist should be like. Always be ready to learn more
You're not following fundamentals (perhaps intentionally) in the form but it doesn't appear to be having much of an effect on your overall kicks. Try bending your knee more before kicking, and also raising the knee higher. You're kicking with the ball and socket join of your hip, and it lets you go faster but with less power, the actual moment of impact should be from releasing the knee.
i do muay thai and have for a long time now. just wanted to say his tkd kicks are good but for that round house you really wanna bust into it and go thru it rather then hit it. for me i throw it but i drive forward (or an angle pending target) and throw myself into that kick, its very off balance kick if your not use to it but on that same deal your kicking i can almost knock it over, never tried to due to it not being mine. none the less powerful.
@ExtraLuke Wow, those were really nice 360 degree roundhouse kicks! I think the main thing to work on is to follow through with the kicks more. Because almost every time you threw a roundhouse to the chest area, it seems as though you had stopped the kick instead of pushing a lot more force on it. But that was really nice! :D
@wowantonlavey in wtf style taekwondo the hips are not suppose to be turned all the way (gives the kick slow recovery time in that STYLE) now IF he was a KARATE practioner, then yeah the hips have to be turned cus its tradional..In wtf you HAVE to kick at a 45 45 angle cause if your're sparring some one in this style and you twist your hips all the over?..thats a easy point(cus of the recovery from the traditional round kick)
@XxlxSmoKexlxX You are still supposed to still flip your hips in WTF, im a 4th degree wtf blackbelt from kangs taekwondo in winnipeg manitoba. snap kick and its variations are for speed used in scoring points in sparing or as a kicking jab, but these are not those kicks turning over the knee, The kicks demonstrated would be below the effectiveness needed to score a point in any WTF tourny under a national level or even a large regional event.
woah..thanks for invite.. I really enjoyed myself watching this video.. :D
uhm.. that's taekwondo? cause I see that you have South Korea's flag on that wall.. :)
I'm also a taekwondo "freak"! ahah... I practiced 1 year taekwondo itf, wushu and koryu bujutsu for few months and taekwondo wtf since 7 years ago.. I still practice taekwondo wtf style :)
I like that you kick clear and relaxed.. but you didn't used all the kicks.. like "ti-chiagi"
in a fight the most important is to not get tired..
You should turn your hips over more when you kick, and your kick should be reaching full extension about half way through your target. Your kinda hitting it and stopping as soon as you make contact. Good flexibility and execution other wise though.
u got good Technic ..but i hope u just don't concentrate on using ur right leg to attack only right? It's good to attack using alternate leg simultaneously. Unless this video is only for one leg kicking? Good job though. Heee..
@JRMtronica yeah, i used to train in tkd and also trained wth my friend who was going to korea for the competition. But anyway, he told me bfr that he like van damne in one of his movie because he used both legs. Anyway good vid. Not into it anymore. Getting old ..haha
I liked the video but I look forward to seeing more videos that use a wider variety of kicks and that uses them in a good combination I.E. the roundhouse to tornado but hopefully more advanced and crazier. :)
a ok ask coments from my frind in facebook ok his name is Hilarion y. Elpa his one of the head of taekwondo here in the philippines ask tell him that ur a friend of mine cause I am more on arnis and we dont have high kicks as well as turning ok check hi site
YOU ARE 4 DAN ?!?!?!?! and you only kick with palton Chagi.... ?!?!?!? thats lame... show more jumps, turn an roundhouse kicks.... SHOW ME why you got the 4 DAN...
Hi Michael, thank you for the invite to watch your work, keep up your discipline and focus it's good to see....how do you want me to message you ref your question , by this means, as in public or privately by e.mail?..R.DYFHi....
Hey mate, got your message. While i am a Muay Thai practitioner, using kicks in a different fashion, i will gladly comment on this video. The kicks you display appear to be masterfully executed. Very fast and awesome technique.
Nice job - keep sharing - be sure to train outside - rough ground - fields - wearing boots - 3 daypack and real street clothes. Train against grapplers - filipino styles and of course other karates --- training is good - perection is good - practice is good - but there must be a real resisting opponent trying to waste you for all of OUR training to have any relevence. Belts and titles pale next to real ability.
Sorry but I just don't think any of these looks useful in the real world. I learned TKD for 3 years and thought it was a waste of time. I'm not trying to be rude - it's just my opinion.
Good quality video,and execution... As a Kenpo guy though it's hard to keep a straight face watching the actual attacks... I just kept hearing "Snap, Krackle Pop..." in the background...
Not bad, looks like no water in BOB and you are just tapping. The only thing I did not like was that you tend to finish as you make impact and just let your leg come home on it's own. A crisper finish would be better.
You have pretty good kicks, but if you want to improve just keep practicing and it will naturally become better and better. You already have good kicks <3.
Cool music man good kicks too. Can you do a 720? I do kind of a cheat 720 its more of a low roundhouse to a spinning hook to a jumping roundhouse, but eh, it works well for me and has lots of power.
@crewifyable these are just demonstration kicks, they arent how i would use them in a fight necissarily. and i will always try to improve myself as much as possible! :)
you are clearly not a fighter, why on earth would you kick with your foot? doesn't make sense, use your shins instead. i don't understand why you would train taekwando as a striking art are there no Muay Thai gyms about near you?
@5nesta it's just not in my opinion a good idea to use your foot to kick, TKD kickers are quick with their kicks just not as powerful compared to others, also jumping and spinning kicks bug me quite a bit. i prefer to use kicks to the thighs to set up my hands and throw the occasional mid/head kick, how do you use these techniques?
@oFR3Do you can't. My friend used Taekwondo in Chinese competition in Hong Kong. He got his ass whooped. Even they use Mui Thai and other Chinese stand-up forms.
@oFR3Do It all depends on the martial artist and their style. oh but it's kinda foolish to think that one martial art is better than the other. It's all on the person.
@oFR3Do muy thai isint better and teakwondo relies on the foot. A martial arts style is only as good as the one that knows how to apply it, i use the kicks in this video tons of times.
are you just demoing? or really hitting that dummy? Speed is good, power is okay, I think you need to improve on your kicks, improve them more than 1000 times it is now. Every fighter should improve EVERYTHING 1000 times more than they already are.
From a kickboxing perspective I would recommend "kicking through" the dummy verses stopping at the surface on your round kicks. Other than that nice presentation and music selection. :-)
@0trashz i land a lot of these kicks, its mainly about when to use them really, many of these are only for specific situations. The ones with feigns tend to work best. But this is just a demonstration of different ways of doing a turning kick, just trying to get people to see that it is versitile and maybe encourage them to try some :)
And haters I performed as defence stance the spinning fly kick to head many times on contest enviroment. It needs to be defence move rather than attack or you are made yourself vurneble to counter attack iw front push kick or quick side kick. Whn opponent attacks the round kics is good as it fools opponent a bit delivering the round kick succesfully. Also in next video you could perform spinnign backside kick and defence stance kicks while in contact with opponent ie. dummy doll.
Nice to see that Tae Kwon Do is still practised. I was formelly taking Tae Kwon Do classes also. Good kicks and stamina but improve the speed and you will be champ.
ok i dont mean to sound like a hater or anything but i myself am a blackbelt in tae kwon do so my word of advice would be one when you do round house kick use the ball of your foot because it will focus your power on to a smaller surface area generating more power plus you would have a lesses chance of hurting your foot. two keep your hands up. if you fight someone who is real good the will simply block then counter and it would be all over for you.
Ok all the haters, I'm sure he won't be throwing all those fancy spinning techniques in a real fight. It's a cool demonstration. The thing about TaeKwonDo is unlike Muy Thai he throws kicks from the stance. It's doesn't have as much power per-say as the Thai way of doing things. But it doesn't have that wind up step and then throw the kick so it's not telegraphed and things land more often. Only critique I have for you is keep your hands up they tend to drop when you kick. If someone side step
@ExtraLuke Thats because he's a moron. I have studied at least some of most martial arts offered in the states, while I am still mainly TKD, I find other styles to be vastly more powerful in technique. Krav Maga is no nonsense, no flash, all technique and power, different styles of kung fu are fast and fluid, and because of the technique, extremely powerful. I chose TKD because I am a natural at it. It has still been my experience that jumping is almost always a bad idea.
@oFR3Do I do love Muay Thai. I have learned that pressure points do not work on a seasoned Muay Thai practitioner. You pretty much have to break bones or blast out their eardrums to throw off their balance. Then they are rather easy to beat after that point. As someone who is a known Martial Artist in my town. I do my actual training behind closed doors and do what most people expect to see in public. Element of surprise, my friend.
@MackenzieMichael LOL so you're saying Mui Thai is invincible? I actually saw Kyokushin beat Mui Thai before. That karate is brutal.. nothing like TKD and other karate forms..
@oFR3Do teakwondo is only as good as the one who knowws how to use it. you think muy thai is better? sheer ignorance, whats the point of learning muy thai if you don't know how to use it.
@v9c9v what is it then, dancing? Jumping gives extra momentum from gravity pull. But still, most of taekwondo techniques are extremely weak in fights.. It's only effective against completely non-combatants. Tanky, mma-trained (without Taekwondo) practitioners can nearly do same powerful attack with a simple hook. They do double the damage with double the speed.. if this guy fights mma, he will go down like a mouse against a tiger.
@0trashz Same power, double the speed, and half the range. The speed deficiency can easily be remedied in a street fight by going for the legs though. It doesn't take much to snap a knee. All that really matters is speed. So maybe a TKD practitioner would go down in the MMA ring but the MMA fighter would surely go down when there is no ring.
@mauiboynokaoi yea, if i wasn't paying attention LOL. But in all seriousness. I actually fought some kid using taekwondo (he started the aggravation, fighting is my last resort, next to crying) I got hit once, which hurt, but 2nd kick i blocked it and smashed his face to the ground with one more punch to the side of the head and he ran off...
I'm a little heavy on my feet, and since you're sharing it with me, I'd suggest you keep the hands up when you fight someone. Also, kick with the ball of the foot if you're going to kick a hard area like the head. I'm in itf tkd. I haven't been there for awhile because of my back problem, but. Good luck!
@WorldOfIvillis though you can't kick with the ball of the foot when you're fighting in ITF TKD. You may kill your opponent, and that doesn't sound too good, does it? XD
thats a pretty bad ass clip. i miss the days doing tkd

@5nesta it's just not in my opinion a good idea to use your foot to kick, TKD kickers are quick with their kicks just not as powerful compared to others, also jumping and spinning kicks bug me quite a bit. i prefer to use kicks to the thighs to set up my hands and throw the occasional mid/head kick, how do you use these techniques?

@oFR3Do you can't. My friend used Taekwondo in Chinese competition in Hong Kong. He got his ass whooped. Even they use Mui Thai and other Chinese stand-up forms.

@oFR3Do It all depends on the martial artist and their style. oh but it's kinda foolish to think that one martial art is better than the other. It's all on the person.

@oFR3Do muy thai isint better and teakwondo relies on the foot. A martial arts style is only as good as the one that knows how to apply it, i use the kicks in this video tons of times.

Has that counter weight ever come down on your foot after a kick?
noweirdbeard 1 month ago
are you just demoing? or really hitting that dummy? Speed is good, power is okay, I think you need to improve on your kicks, improve them more than 1000 times it is now. Every fighter should improve EVERYTHING 1000 times more than they already are.

From a kickboxing perspective I would recommend "kicking through" the dummy verses stopping at the surface on your round kicks. Other than that nice presentation and music selection. :-)

@ExtraLuke how do you fare? I've never let taekwondo guy land any of the kicks you posed here.
0trashz 1 month ago
@0trashz i land a lot of these kicks, its mainly about when to use them really, many of these are only for specific situations. The ones with feigns tend to work best. But this is just a demonstration of different ways of doing a turning kick, just trying to get people to see that it is versitile and maybe encourage them to try some :)

And haters I performed as defence stance the spinning fly kick to head many times on contest enviroment. It needs to be defence move rather than attack or you are made yourself vurneble to counter attack iw front push kick or quick side kick. Whn opponent attacks the round kics is good as it fools opponent a bit delivering the round kick succesfully. Also in next video you could perform spinnign backside kick and defence stance kicks while in contact with opponent ie. dummy doll.

Nice to see that Tae Kwon Do is still practised. I was formelly taking Tae Kwon Do classes also. Good kicks and stamina but improve the speed and you will be champ.
MEGADRIVEJeroi 1 month ago
ok i dont mean to sound like a hater or anything but i myself am a blackbelt in tae kwon do so my word of advice would be one when you do round house kick use the ball of your foot because it will focus your power on to a smaller surface area generating more power plus you would have a lesses chance of hurting your foot. two keep your hands up. if you fight someone who is real good the will simply block then counter and it would be all over for you.

billtvmacon 1 month ago
Ok all the haters, I'm sure he won't be throwing all those fancy spinning techniques in a real fight. It's a cool demonstration. The thing about TaeKwonDo is unlike Muy Thai he throws kicks from the stance. It's doesn't have as much power per-say as the Thai way of doing things. But it doesn't have that wind up step and then throw the kick so it's not telegraphed and things land more often. Only critique I have for you is keep your hands up they tend to drop when you kick. If someone side step

@ExtraLuke Thats because he's a moron. I have studied at least some of most martial arts offered in the states, while I am still mainly TKD, I find other styles to be vastly more powerful in technique. Krav Maga is no nonsense, no flash, all technique and power, different styles of kung fu are fast and fluid, and because of the technique, extremely powerful. I chose TKD because I am a natural at it. It has still been my experience that jumping is almost always a bad idea.

@oFR3Do I do love Muay Thai. I have learned that pressure points do not work on a seasoned Muay Thai practitioner. You pretty much have to break bones or blast out their eardrums to throw off their balance. Then they are rather easy to beat after that point. As someone who is a known Martial Artist in my town. I do my actual training behind closed doors and do what most people expect to see in public. Element of surprise, my friend.

@v9c9v what is it then, dancing? Jumping gives extra momentum from gravity pull. But still, most of taekwondo techniques are extremely weak in fights.. It's only effective against completely non-combatants. Tanky, mma-trained (without Taekwondo) practitioners can nearly do same powerful attack with a simple hook. They do double the damage with double the speed.. if this guy fights mma, he will go down like a mouse against a tiger.
0trashz 1 month ago 3
@0trashz Same power, double the speed, and half the range. The speed deficiency can easily be remedied in a street fight by going for the legs though. It doesn't take much to snap a knee. All that really matters is speed. So maybe a TKD practitioner would go down in the MMA ring but the MMA fighter would surely go down when there is no ring.

@mauiboynokaoi yea, if i wasn't paying attention LOL. But in all seriousness. I actually fought some kid using taekwondo (he started the aggravation, fighting is my last resort, next to crying) I got hit once, which hurt, but 2nd kick i blocked it and smashed his face to the ground with one more punch to the side of the head and he ran off...

I'm a little heavy on my feet, and since you're sharing it with me, I'd suggest you keep the hands up when you fight someone. Also, kick with the ball of the foot if you're going to kick a hard area like the head. I'm in itf tkd. I haven't been there for awhile because of my back problem, but. Good luck!
