| Dragonlancer [Dragonlancer] | define | - Ok, I decided to name this here move after me, cuz I have never seen it done. You run quite fast, and do a corkscrew kick up and forward so you are going diagonally. After one twist, or more, you have to have your back facing the direction you are moving, you break into a back layout, and land. That's it, just dont hurt yourself, because after every time I try this now, I get up about 10 minutes later. .,-/*\-,.PEACE.,-/*\-,. [Dragonlancer]

| Fei Longs dragon kick | define | - Fei Long's Dragon Kick is performed like a normal 360 Jump Crescent. However after the rotation, instead of kicking with the right leg with a crescent, the left leg shoots out as a front kick.

| flash kick | define | - a round-off back layout step-out. most people tuck one leg and make the motion look more like a kick than a traditional gymnastic step-out.
- a variation is going up into a pike off the round-off so that the body makes a V and then kicking out to whip the torso back to complete the movement.
It looks more powerful than a regular flash kick which simply floats over. - it is just a whipback, but you split the legs in the air. Also, it doesn't necessarily have to be done off a round-off
|
| flashswipe [David Skakle] | define | - Setup like a Kim Do split kick. Then as you jump kick a leg out(either one does not matter)in front of you like a flash kick. As your leg comes out start to spin the same direction as the leg that is out. (for example left leg out for flash kick spin to the left and vice versa) You will want to spin 360 degrees. As you spin 360 degrees lean back to give the illusion of being inverted. And finally on the way down you land like a tornado kick (360). Peace David Skakle [David Skakle]
