Just wondering what various opinions are...
I think that the hook punch is tough to beat as is the rear leg roundhouse kick. Kicks without spins only... |

I think that a straight punch delivers the most force and a side thrust kick deals amazing damage. It's a shame that these attacks are very easy to block and counter.

I agree with JoeCooke007, the straight punch and the side thrust kick are very powerfull kicks. One of them kicks drove my brother through a wall!

The hook punch and reverse roundhouse are my favorites, so agree with ramcalgary...I like the power generated from both.

I agree with Joe and Moobrack, they deliver incredible power. Amazing on how the Karate people agree on the same techniques.

Karate is a great art to practice and the basic techniques do not have a lot of variation. I am glad that two karate practitioners share the same views, it tells me that what I believe is correct and if it's not, at least I'm not the only one that's wrong.

It is pretty cool to come in to look at this thread and see so much agreement.
I believe when it comes right down to it most martial arts are built on the same basic moves and without them the rest is of little value.
