I'm not exactly sure what the pop swipe is, but the one sessh does looks like a pop hyper round kick where you invert a little bit.

What you did wasn't really that but it WAS more interesting... I would call it a hyper double leg... or maybe a single leg switch. Possibly either a double leg setup into a 540 or a parafuso where you bypass the leg "impact."

Innovative?

your is a true popswipe!

::edit::
the "popswipe" from TT is not a popswipe....its more of an off axis flash kick

It's a sideswipe from a pop setup.

Pop...... Swipe.

Pop - Swipe.

Pop Swipe.

I don't really know/care much about this move but I think it really could be that simple.

yeah dragonic mike is right.
try doing a flashkick from an angle.
tbh i think yours look a little too much like pop5s, kuhl. it looks good, dont get me wrong, but i think you need to invert earlier in the move.

yeah popswipe is that thing marinas does out of a raiz and then sometimes follows through with a second kick

the real "pop swipe" that sesh does is done from a backside stance. its like a standing flash, but you turn 90 degrees and swipe across, instead of over your head.

I agree.

If you watch carefully he only 'inverts' (hips above head) for a moment after throwing the kick.

Put it this way: If this was from a cheat setup would it be considered a Sideswipe?

To Kuhl: Try to invert more. :good:



Also... (Just checked the club540 page) Sesshoumaru is technically starting in a backside stance.

Perhaps we should consider differentiating between the two.

Pop setup = Pop Swipe

Backside setup = Backside Swipe ???

Personally, I can't see that catching on. But there definitely seem to be two ways to perform this move.


Edit: Hahaha Breykdown beat me to it. :tongue:

that was nothing like a pop swipe but it is very clean double leg variation ;)

This is a very good point.

I had forgotten all about the term 'Valera Flash'. :punched:

However this example still wasn't inverted enough in my opinion.

i'm still going to stand by my ideals of a pop swipe is a pop double leg with a swipe instead of the double leg. It isn't like a flash kick at all. It should be a single leg with the swiping leg.

Yes, my preferred terminology would be:

Pop Swipe - Pop takeoff into an inverted swiping kick.

Backside Swipe - Backside takeoff into an inverted swiping kick.

(Valera Flash - [if I remember correctly] A Kim Do Kick with a front kick which explodes directly upward at the peak of the move instead of a split kick.)
