Wasnt rubbish ive never liked bouncing but the guy was fast he had good technique and he knew what he was talking about. 8/10 for that, -1 for the bouncing




10 - 1 = 9



He can transition from punching combinations to head kicks pretty quick, but he annoys me with all the bouncing.

The techniques delivered look unfinished. The mawashi-geri for instance is just a leg movement i.m.o.
It can hurt. Like hell even if you hit one of the right spots. But his looks crap. Like one I would pull two years ago becasue I didn't knew better.

I shall stay out of this one as my tournament days are long gone and I have around 'zero' intrest anyhow.

I think the guy doing the demo is an ex English champion and I have a video clip of him seriously kicking butt in semi contact, which I shall try and link up.

I.m.o. this vid shows poor technique. Maybe he can actually kick it. But I'm sceptic about this flick.
And hey, it's just my opinion...

When I made my comment about his lack of power it was because of the mawashi geri. He puts his weight forward in his punches. This isnt necessarily bad but when he goes for the kick, he moves his weight back by pushing off with the kicking foot. Moving this weight back is robbing his kick of power and snap, as well as speed Im sure.
