Back knuckles and wheel kicks would be at the top of the list for me.

I'm with Mr. Ryer on this one...sidekick has to be my fav. in sparring. 'specially that nice little corner with the floaters and the diaphragm...
but I also enjoy a good placed round kick...people don't think a fat guy can move. I just really like my distance between me and the person I'm squaring off with...

That's true, people don't think a fat guy can move. I believe he is talking about his experience with his instructor, Chronuss is not fat at all.Originally posted by Chronuss

use to be...still got some pounds to shed...'specially after X-mas and such...but people look at me and believe I'm a slow and lumbering individual...which I usually am until given a purpose.

I always liked a good side kick, ridge hand, and hook kick. haven't seen anyone mention the hook kick.

We generally use the hook kick as part of a kicking combination. Very seldom do we use it as a stand alone move, unless the opponent just leaves us no other option

yeah...the hook-round combo hasn't been used in quite some time...we all got use to use to it...last person I used it against was Sean, wasn't it Seig...? ...think he got a side kick after that.

The most effective and probably least used freestyle technique is one I patented. I point at their chest as if they dropped some food on it and when they look down I quickly brush my fingers up their face. That gets 'em everytime.

If you delete the kick from Leaping Crane, it works great in a freestyle situation....

I doubt there's many women out there my age that could keep up with my 'pack' as I do :rofl:
To keep things on topic..
I like the round to spinning back.. and use it all the time.. then plant and come in with the force of hands.. Keeps those young ones on their toes..
