Yoo-Sin Tul

Yoo-Sin is named after General Kim Yoo Sin, a commanding general during the Silla Dynasty. The 68 movements refer to the last two figures of 668 A.D., the year Korea was united. The ready posture signifies a sword drawn on the right rather than left side, symbolizing Yoo Sin's mistake of following his Kings' orders to fight with foreign forces against his own nation.

that is the ITF style, which aims to use a sine wave motion to generate power.

[nelsonj1885]

"sine wave" helps with the maximum amount of power. Everything moves in a opposite but equal reaction. However it is supposed to be "slight" sometimes it is over-exaggerate. under General Choi sine-wave has existed since the beginning.

Just look online there are many scientific explanations supporting the movement and it is one of the things that differentiate the style.

this sign wave is exagerated. as we exagerate all movements in practice. we perform all techniques in a full range of motion so that we can perform them to a lesser degree with all of the power and elements of the full range of motion in actual combat. It is very immature to disparege a sound prinicple just because you are ignorate of how it works. The trick is realizing the difference between full range of motion or gross movement and fine movement. See "the martial arts manual" for more

[taepan01]

I think that it is really wrong to speak against a technique that you obviously don't understand. When you train you exagirate movements... you perform them in a full range of motion. You do this to get your body used to doing the technique at full power. when you spar/fight, you can then preform the technique at full, half or quorter motion and may still generate full power as all of the foot, hip, shoulder, and weight motions are incoperated.

@sunyataphoenix especially since forms are used for sparring right? Good luck using that strategy

@TKDGuy79

Some styles of TaeKwonDo incorporate the "Sine wave" and good luck to them

Personaly I hate it , and dont accept that it is a good way for a martial artist to train .

You may argue about power generation ( just dont do it in front of a boxer )

Much prefer the original TKD . Choi only really incorporated it later on, to this bouncy degree. Not suggesting that the ITF dont turn out some great martial artists , because they do.
