My 2 Cents
In Royamas group they allow punchs to the head but they wear gloves. I think its still in the testing stages Royama brought up a good point beacuse the current Kyokushin (IKO1) dont allow punchs to the face...anyways back to what Royamas said that on the street u cannot hesitate to punch to the face which is true.
I really hope IKO1 adpots this as well..In the old days of Kyokushin u had to protect the head and groin. thats why if u watch some kyokushin katas the movement in them is that they protect the groin. I hope this helps  |

Throwdown,
I hope I can answer correctly, as I am an Ashihara Karate fighter not Kyokushin fighter. Although I do honourably acknowledge the Kyokushin roots of Ashihara karate.
The hand movement is a gesture of a finishing technique namely Gyaku Tzuki if I am guessing correctly as to which hand movement you mean.

I've viewed it but I am not to keen on children below the age on 14 taking part in a full contact Competions. I can understand they're all padded up. I am Ashihara based but I Only allow touch sparing for my kids and young adults. Once they're 18 then thats theirs to decide.
None the less I can see them becoming Excellent Champions in say 12-15 years time

I am not so sure it is good for kids to get knocked out like that, though.

Osu!
Been doing Kyokushin for a few years. We punch to the head when we wear gloves, but in tournaments we go no gloves and body shots only.

Who knows? With the rising popularity of violent MA, punches to the head may become legal.
