Avoiding a Frankenpanel...

I thought it was "Shoalin toe STUB"
Damn, that'd hurt....
Xiaou2:
The Term is loosely based on who I saw using it. Id never been officially taught anything Shaolin, (just a few things not worth mention) mostly only Wing Chun.
The technique, using the toe much the same as a finger strike / stab. You get the extended distance, and a deep penetrating strike. Its also lightning 'jab' fast.
I personally practiced it on my wall mounted sandbags. Then later, used it in a sparring match against a Kyokoshin Karate instructor & full contact competitor... striking him in his inner thigh, stopping and stunning him. Afterwords, he immediately asked what the tech was, as thats the only name I could come up with.
Edit:
And yes, most people would easily break their toes doing this. Only with a lot of dedicated and specialized training can you get the digit strong enough for weapon usage, without self damage.

Win chun?
Can't hold a candle to Wang Chung!
All together now "Everybody have fun tonight!..."

Jebus! Stop explaining the Shaolin Toe Stab!! Stop qualifying your Shaolin Toe Stab accolades! Stop expanding on your prowess of said Shaolin Toe Stab, and the expertise required to perform such a maneuver!
That is NOT making it better. You are Shaolin Toe Stabbing your way into the hole further.
Xiaou2:
Ohh Scott? And why exactly is that? Is it because you think theres no valid techniques in Chinese martial arts systems?
Over 2000 yrs of dedicated developments are no joke. Even IF many of its modern practitioners are.
Its only when you open your mind, will you ever learn what you do not know.
And without that knowledge, you are just as clueless as the next fool.
No, I dont know the proper chinese term for the tech... unlike with WC, where I know the main terms of the system. It doesnt make it invalid.
Then again, I cant imagine a non martial artist having a clue anyways...
let alone a closed minded artist.
Your more than welcome to look over my training equipment:

Which includes 4" diameter metal kick poles, hanging bags of steel bbs, a 6ft tall heavy bag, and many other custom built training devices. (based on the original old-skool training devices & methods. Not a watered down school of performance)
