Whats your fave aikido technique?
at the moment i like Yonkayo because it is soooo painful lol and kiri otoshi because it is so simple and effective.

Nikiyo,

You can pull it off almost all the time even one handed and it hurts like a bastard. I Chinese MA its called mall wrap hand.

Well, all Aikido techniques are good in their own respect. Sometimes you will have to change techniques in a situation. Lets say you do ikkyo and for some reason it messes up, he stands up and tries to hit you. Then you can jsut go to nikkyo and break his wrist if you want. A good aikidoka can go from technique to technique effortlessy, so that if you do one and it messes up, you can just switch to something else. Personally, though, i like kotegaeshi. Ueshiba has killed many of his students with this technique just on accident. Ofcourse, I would rather be able to subdue my opponent than kill him, but if it comes to that, this technique can do it.

How the hell do you kill someone with a kotegaeshi

I've never heard of anyone dying from a broken wrist!!!

Unless the dude lands on his head for no reasons...

Well, actually, kotegaeshi can be done as a throw. You have to bring their hand behind their shoulder. It's hard to explain without showing you. Once you get their hand behind their shoulder, you just pull down as hard as you can, which pulls them off balance and they fall. If they don't know how to fall right, they can really get hurt. But the idea in this version of the technique is that its being used as a throw, not a wrist break.

What the HELL are you talking about - what a complete CROCK!

Ueshiba Never killed ANY - i repeat ANY of his own students why the hell would he!! he never Killed ANYONE full stop - it would have been completely against both his relegious beliefs and the principle theory behind Aikido! He was famous for defeating opponents without even hurting them - let alone killing them!!!

Spreading such comeplete Shite does absolutley nothing other than ridicule Aikido!

Please read something or research a topic before you post such rubbish - i pray this is not what your sensei has told you!
