Jump kick protects the base leg. And can actually improve balance if done properly. With no foot on the floor if you get hit you worry about recovery by trying to get a good base when your feet hit the ground. Have to be careful against grapplers with that because they will try to grab rather than hit or push.

I like spin hooks to the head because they strike the back of the head and usually even if blocked strike the head with knockout force. Most people tend to move the wrong way and get blasted even harder or they just stand there and get hit.

To block head kicks its usually better to be in clinch range. Or as a defense use a front thrust kick to waist or lower (teep).

I take kicking very seriously and know when and how to throw kicks. Even ones that would usually get you killed. It's all timing and judging what the opponent will do.

yes, jumping up and down is smart, especially when the low kick gets you when you land...

Isn't jumping up and down an old school method of birth control from the 50s?

The TKD arguments will never be settled. Let's talk about something else.
