Thanks for the visual. I was having trouble picturing this technique because we hadn't practiced it on the body yet. I'd love to see "Retreating Pundulum" if you have it available. Keep them comming.

The Detour from Doom Kenpo Karate Technique

Hi! I am Joe Palanzo from the World Wide Kenpo Karate Association in conjunction with Expert Village. This technique is called detour from doom and it is technique against a round house kick, a right round house kick. So what we are going to do on the first move of course is to get out of the way. As the kick comes in, I am moving up the line this way so I am out of the line of power and I am stopping his forward motion with a punch to the chin. At the same time, my lower arm is going to help divert the kick past him. As he plants forward, he falls forwards. I am going to try to manage a little kick here, check his shoulder and punch to the solar plexus. At this time I am going to adjust myself and strike a little lower to bend him forward, grabbing his head and pulling it down and finishing with a hammer fist behind the neck. Now the interesting part here is that you could actually eliminate either the hand or the foot. The idea here is that you have a choice based on the distance that if I am this far away, I can stop him with my leg and of course if I am closer, I am stopping with my fist. Then the follow ups are incidental I mean you can do lots of other different things. This one is called detour from doom.
