Default Straight Blast, how to?
Hello everybody I'm new so bare with me here.

Does anybody know of a good online tutorial for the straight blast? or can at least describe it to me sufficiently themselves?

Thanks,

Look up at that menu that has the word 'Search', and type in "straight blast". There is actually a lot of newer threads about it.

Thanks,
We are taught to stand with parallel feet- so that we can run at the opponent.
They also tell us to, when running land on your toes so as no to slip on any stray bannana peels.
Thirdly to keep low. Don't let your feet come to far off the ground. The shortest distance is a straight line, so don't curve it by playing leap frog...this is the "stealth mode".
We learn to keep three step's of diatance so if they move forward you meet them on your second step.


Now the bit that scares me is we are told not to worry about kick's. Maybe they mean..."at the Beginner stage".

..but I think we are being shown how to use the straight blast as an essential technique..?

I've only been doing Kung Fu for a year, but I think that is what we are being shown? How does that sound?

Your not worried about kicks because your running over somebody while punching them. They will have a hard time keeping balance, let alone throw a kick. your post kind of scares me. Banana peels and stealth mode? Seems like level4 of Frogger.

Also, as I have said in previous threads, Vitor Belfort VS Marvin Eastman also demonstrates it very well. Belfort uses it to back up the very aggressive Eastman and delivers the most brutal knee strike I've ever seen in the ring from the neck tie.

Not sure what number it was. I watched it last year. www.sherdog.com should have some info on it for you.
