Mainly, its just streetfighter and Ryu would kick his ass. _________________________ "When I let Go of who I am, I become who I might be." Lao Tzu

Prizewriter Professional Poster Registered: 10/23/05 Posts: 2546	Hello, Further to what Chen said, the best art I have ever seen for the high side kick was Tae Kwon Do. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kuceIhh9NPQ Re the overall style, I am at a loss. Those kicks are all found in Tae Kwon do though: Jump Front kick: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=osY1lmRA49c Jumping Spinning back kick: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haxX2wOkg...PL&index=22 _________________________ "Let your food be your medicine, and your medicine be your food" Hippocrates.
