Spinning Attack

One of the WSKF's characteristic points is spinning technique.
[Examples; from left kamae]
1. Moving forward Left kizami zuki --> Back turn 180° pivot on left foot --> Right jodan uraken.
2. Stepping back Right nagashi uke --> Back turn 180° pivot on right foot --> Left jodan haito uci.
You have to practice with the care of;
- quick and minimum movements while keeping balance.
- disadvantage while showing your back to the opponent.
It is hard to use in the competition, but it is also very effective if you can use them in a proper timing.        Spinning uraken trial (- missed! - not proper timing..)
