    Even in the Fighting Method books, there is no single mention of the oblique kick. All kicks are explained, Bruce made extensive picture series of the kicks he used at that time. But not of the oblique kick, except of one single picture. And all that was 1967, not to mention all the streamlining of JKD that happened later on... Don't kill the messenger.

    The advantage of the oblique kick is just that it can be used in punching range. You can suddenly kick the opponents knee while they are focused on your hands. But this range is typically avoided in JKD because of the focus on mobility, longest weapons and high value targets.

      It can be done, but it's far weaker than the side kick, which can be done from same distance.

    Makes perfect sense. You can see Lee use the oblique kick a couple of times in the Norris fight at the end of Way of the Dragon (or Return of the Dragon, in the USA). but that, of course, is movie fighting, where he also used high kicks and spinning kicks etc. But, for real life, you make it easy to see why he would have dropped it because of its incompatibility with the fencing type stance and footwork. Thank you sir.

    Thanks Thomas, great explanation. And to everyone who is arguing "but it will work if this and that" or "I do this kick all the time" - its not about dismissing the kick as "does not work". The point is that there are more simple and efficient ways that are just as effective or even more effective. Doing same damage while staying in a safer and more mobile position for example. Same goes for trapping and grappling and all the other things that Bruce stopped using.
    With enough training you can probably get anything to work, but ain't nobody got time for that. I'd rather train the most efficient technique that is still effective.

    I do agree that the oblique kick from the back leg is impractical unless your timing is SUPERB in real time combat. I would recommend using it while you in a Muay Thai clinch. Use the kick to disrupt their balance, then quickly execute a hip toss or go for a leg takedown. It’s not useless, you just have to modify how you use it

    this kick is dangerous for jkd ,cause you open your guard inside

  • @jaketheasianguy3307
    @jaketheasianguy3307 2 года назад +1

    Just to be clear, oblique kick just simply means side kick and front kick diagonal downward to the leg. It was called like that when Jon Jones spammed it to oblivion and even when Jones used the sidekick to the other guy's leg, people still called it oblique kick.
    Still, the rear leg stomp kick truly doesn't fit the sideway stance and the approach of JKD. Even in WC and other chinese kung fu styles, it was used as a stopping tool and never meant to damage the other guy's knee. Sidekick is better since you can both intecept attack and deal damage at the same time

    No need to break structure for an inferior tool to the same target. Simple.
    Same as we don’t jab in a fight, use lead punch or eye jab.

    Sir can you tell how we can defend continuous punches done by boxer. Like multiple jab-cross combos. And how we can put the same type of pressure on opponent by just using front hand.
