    Default Favourite taekwondo kick

    What is your favourite taekwondo kick?

    I guess this depends on your level of ability, so I mean it in a way of what your favourite taekwondo kick is in general, by watching, not just practicing. So in other words what looks the best?

    I would have to say the 540 air spin kick. Not that I can actually do it.

    It's extremely difficult to perfect but when it is perfected, it looks amazing.

    ooh some nice kicks.

    I like axe kick, because although I am just new to Taekwondo, my flexibility is better than most so I can do this kick well.

    Go axe kick!

    The "invert" or "twisting" kick from the "L-Stance" with the "front foot" is my absolute favorite. It is just fast and completely unexpected. Nothing special to look at but great for soft targets. For me it feels right.

    Never mind the "scissor kick" I used to be able to do!
