    Which head kick is your favorite setup?

    • @SR-hz8rp

      My favourite is the rear hand fake into rear leg headkick (Leon Edwards style)

      All great stuff, but the one I've pulled off the most is Fazen's. Condition low to one side with rear leg a few times, then swing it around to the other side unexpectedly. Works great as a hook kick, but you can also do an outside crescent kick or hatchet kick depending on other factors.

    My tip: as a shorter guy (5'9" is short, now lol) I can't get always get head kicks with roundhouse or sides, but a front snap is always reliable. Throw hooks and crosses, maybe a couple roundhouses, to get them to keep the hands up, which leaves a nice lane right down the middle for the front snap.

    Everybody did pretty much rear leg headkick... However one of the most successful (at least for me) headkicks is lead leg from short range: tempt opponent for body shot and headkick them! This requires more mobility and isn't as powerfull but it's very surprising.

    I got one quite similar to mike's but not as dramatic. I like to throw the outside low kick and then put that foot down a 90 degree angle from their body and go straight into the other leg high kick from their side Just a big, quick angle change to set up the headkick. You can also set up the spin by stepping the other way but it's harder.
