I saw this site a long time ago…
enough..
Stop posting that fucking site around..it isn’t that cool and the fotos look ridiculous. More combat applications please..mantis postures on their own are often laughable.
Sorry, getting tired of this advertised everywhere.

You forgot to add there is only like 5 pictures…
And it’s all basic TKD and karate stuff anyway.
Adventure is just a romantic name for trouble. It sounds swell when you write about it, but it’s hell when you meet it face to face in a dark and lonely place.

Do you wet your finger before you stick it in his ear ?
Those techniques look really effective!
Man, that looks like it really hurts!
I wish you punks would stop posting links to your sucky site with pics of students that have awful technique. this is a MA forum, not a marketing site. from the looks of some of those pics, you need to be training, not posting links…

“I see!” said the blind man.
agreed…
The pics were ridiculous and honestly..the combat sequences leave a little to be desired. Every shot to the opponents body leaves him screaming in pain…the site like i said, sucks beyond the cool mantis pic. I think the point of the site was to practice html.

LMAO!!!
OMG that’s fricken hilarious!!!, do you guys actually fight from those stances!!!. Man I would slap you like a red headed step child. Look at this shiet…
LoL I cant stop laughing…
Look at this:
WTF is that?!?! who punches with the upper wrist?!?!
I person who wants a broken wrist?
I wouldnt consider that a punch.More like a wristem!
Actually guys
I have to step in for the traditionalists.. You DO punch with the upper wrist and it is exrtremely effective if it is used at the correct angle. I use it some times and Mantis is known for using it. You have to watch the angle of the wrist like i said or you’ll snap your wrist. The strike is legit and it hurts. Just more weapons to be aware of…a fighter who uses fists alone is more predictable than a man who uses his entire body as a weapon. Food for thought…
the pics are brutal though. What is with the tough guy pretty boy face as he hits his screaming white clad opponent?!
P.S- Those stances are designed to improve strength and balance..they aren’t supposed to sit in that and wait for the opponent hehe…the pics are just too much though. The site sucks ass and that is the bottom line. That and the fact taht it has been posted everywhere on this forum

Actually…
Back when I was a MMA, I used that technique alot. Its called the oxjaw and I broke a guys nose with that once. When the wrist snap is combined with your arm techniques it becomes a very fast in-fighting technique. Plus, when you condition it, it becomes very strong. Beware hitting with the wrong part of the bone or you may really hurt your wrist.

Wrist Strikes
Wow those fancy outfits look like something
borrowed from Siegfreid and Roy’s closet!
I studied Ed Parker’s Kenpo system for a time and the more advanced students practiced similar strikes with the wrist. The strikes when augmented with a slight twist from the hips was quite powerful.
My instructor informed me that the strikes were to be employed for breaking the breastbone of one’s adversary. He also brike 1/2" boards with the strike.
In Kenpo the refer to it as a " Chicken-wrist strike".
Heeeuuuuu…I do strike like that…effective because surprising and unorthodox, painless, at least for me…the wrist is heavily wrapped in ligaments and it’s a very strong shock absorber…you can strike any part of the opponent with that…plus it forces you to use a whipping motion that is both fast and penetrating…in my opinion, I’d use that anytime over a “dumb” punch…but who am I anyway? 
Yeah, I also thought that was what we in shotokan call a “chicken head” strike and not an ox-jaw.
Also, it’s typical for the shoot-and-mount crowd to think that people fight out of those stances. It simply shows their ignorance when it comes to any other style than their “superior” one used in some-holds-barred and penultimate fighting championships.
YAWN. Their arrogance is really tiring after a while.

O.K. maybe its a legit strike…
But doing it to the side of his head is a good way to break your knuckle er.. wrist I guess…
I know of it as a chicken head also. I thought the ox jaw was more similar to a willow palm…

Come not between the dragon and his wrath…
Yes Budokan
It really shows my ignorance… listen I dont train Kung-Fu. So when I go to a Kung-Fu website and I see these “stances” what do I think. I think they must fight from them. What else are stances for??. And if you fight like you train… then dont you fight like that???
