That is a pretty good one! The band looks cool. Ok for an attacker to have a suki in his/her attack; he/she would have to have a thought distraction of thinking. This misdirection in thinking and broken concentration can come from something as simple as a major eye rake, to somthing as complex as a single dragon's head strike to the temple combined with a transforming single inverted (palm-up) spear hand strike (with the opposite hand) into the eagle's talon choking throw set-up. A quick stomp to fracture the attacker's ankle is a good example also. Thus, suki is a mental break in an individual's momentary or elongated train of thougth of concentrated control in the application of a physical act.Originally posted by Jeff Cook

In tournament i guess it would describe a change or opening in the oppentents guard to land a point or strike to win with. Yet i'am pretty sure that when a man is choking the life out of your body at point blank range, a vicious eye gouge tearing the eye muscles would create the opening or chance for escape. The eye rake produces the mental lapse in the attacker's concentration and creates the opening and chance for ending the confrontation with a finishing motion/strike/throw or any combination thereof.Originally posted by RyuShiKan
Chiduce,
Maybe it's because I am so "stupid" & "unedjubakated" but I find your posts a bit hard to follow at times..........especially this one since first you wrote this:
The reason I asked is because "suki" can have several meanings.
For example:
suki= spade
suki= like
suki= elegant pursuits
suki= an opening, a chance
The "suki" you are referring to just means "chance" or "opportunity" it's not referring to a "mental break in an individual's momentary or elongated train of thought"..........
What you ARE referring to is known as "ranzatsu" or "konran"....................if you want more lessons in Japanese I am afraid I will have to ask for tuition.
....it must be very frustrating for a "Soke" of your caliber to write something only to have me, a lowly, "dumb" (your word), yudansha, show you it's inaccurate.

There is this website that I found that says Chojun Miyagi did Wushu and Goju!
