That is the correct statement.

Quite often it was used as a violent and radical way to break a thug’s grip on your collars.

It is shown in that german WWII combatives field manual.
You come upward and inside the grip with both hands closed together to make a massive fist, break the grip and then smash by going downward all the reachable targets ( top of nose mostly or low part of the jaw ).

Nowadays, it is considered to be outdated. In fact, all your vital targets still stay available for a counter attack from the thug.

And there are more efficient weapons : chin jab, cowcatcher, power slap, edge of hand.

Feel free to visit this german military manual by going to :

http://www.get-tough.net

click on \” manuals \”, and then the choice will be yours

Abwehr .pdf files, page 24.

\” La guerriËre donne un coup de pied votre derriËre \” should become :

\” La guerriËre donne un coup de pied dans votre derriËre \”

and then, you’ll be set.

If you don’t mind …

… pay a visit to these sites :

http://www.peterconsterdine.com

http://www.geoffthompson.com ( take a look at the forums part )

On both sites, activate the search engine with \” power slap \”, \” double hip \” and \” drop step \”.
Then you’ll learn some valuable techniques.

There’s also this site :

http://www.pekiti-tirsia.net/openHand.php?lang=en&soundsParam=&file=openHand

Look at this open hand techniques article. Brilliant explanations of the reasons to use and abuse of open hand strikes.

Specially in the Combatives approach of the preemptive strikes.

Congratulations, John !!

For your new baby.

It’s fast, userfriendly and it is now a usual general software that allows plenty variations and possibilities.

While on my Mac, the old forum was a Netscape best surfing bird, the new one seems to perform better on IE. Which is quite nice . Faster, anyway.

I had always said that my previous nick name would die with the old forum, let \” MetalMickey \” rest in peace.
Here am I with the nick name I use generally on several boards, worldwide.

Thanks for your efforts, John. Wish you the best.

Enjoy all !!

Cheers,

Serge.
