Shin Kick – He Won’t “Stand” the Pain!
Shin Kick
Shin kick is a very powerful and effective combat move. Everybody on the planet have already experienced that monstrous pain when hit in the shin bone during a football match or doing anything else.
I remember when I was first practicing with “bo” (Japanese term for a pole) and smashed the top of it right in to my shin bone when trying to rotate it. The pain was horrible!
And pain is what this combat move is basically about. Shin kick is based on hitting a place on your leg where the bone is very accessible so you can smash it and torture the one being hit. Even a small blow can cause unbearable pain.
As I have used the shin kick quite a few times, I must say that people are really unaware to this kind of combat move. When you raise your leg, they presume you want to kick them in a head or what, but they never think about kicking shin.
The best part is that you don’t need much space to perform the shin kick because the shin is low located and that means easily accessible. It’s fast and very effective.
If you would find a good leverage to your hit and perform really nice shin kick, the person is undoubtedly going to fall down so you can kick him a little more or run away.
One teacher of mine once told me you can even KO someone using a shin kick, but I have never really KO’d anyone with this kind of combat move though I love to use it.
The magic around the shin kick is that your opponent can be the meanest steroid machine in the world, but when you kick him in his shin bone, he would cry like a little bitch!
This combat move rocks and I highly recommend practicing it from all types of stands and angles with just a bare foot. An ordinary steel pipe can replace the shin bone.
Once you gain some habit in breaking pipes with just a bare foot, you are pretty much ready to smack some bucks down with your shin kick.
Just to give you some tips, I like to add shin kick combat move in my “combos”. When for exmple you throw a punch and you happen to miss, the focus of your opponent is on the hand and on height level where the punch was aimed at. When you continue with a shin kick you can pretty much do some real magic damage. Or even execute this combat move simoultaneously with the punch.
He will not see you performing a shin kick, but he will surely feel it. May be more than he would like to.
Shin kick is really a beautiful combat move that can deliver a nice amount of pain and can, if not end the fight, make the fight much easier.
