@karatefightr15 you should only wear them when youre used to kicking with shoes, or he might twist his ankles if he overextends for a turning kick or side kick.
in an actual fight just wear them if you have them already on as i dont think the opponent would allow you to take them off anyway, he would just rush in and attack you.
@flamebeetle i figured that's what you meant, i was just trying to point out that since you're going to have shoes on in a fight, it makes sense to practice with them on. i think it would be a good (though obv not traditional) idea to practice in street clothes. just a thought.
I am very impresed. He side kicked with a lot of power without using exaggerated footwork or momentum. You would never think a guy that look like this can be this powerfull.
Just curious...which art did Paul study, primarily?

He shouldn't use shoes, if you kick with shoes that would not only put a strain on the person's ankle but also might damage the holder.

@flamebeetle ...so when he gets into an actual fight, he should first pause and take them off??
