Listen up everybody... This guy is doing the form exactly the way the founder of tkd intended. Its called sine wave. The force is generated in part by the "bounce" action. Don't believe? Try for yourself. Read Gen Choi's encyc.

Everyone saying he's doing it wrong, every school teaches it a different way. Although it's not how I personally do it, it's how he was taught by his instructor, so it's fine. Every school does it differently.

@darkedge3 Nope low section. The low kick is performed just below the waist height. Refer to the 15vol encyclopedia, vol 9.
