osopardo, ya kicking the elbow with the shin hurts too but the instep is full of small bones that can break and joints that can sprain... you don't have to worry about that with the shin. Plus I've disabled my foot many times kicking elbows with the instep, but never disabled my leg hitting elbows with the shin, it hurt but I could continue.
