A specialized push which is physically distinguishable by creating the collision with the body.

Inflected Forms(s):

Bumping (adjective), Bumps (plural), Bumped (past tense)

Comments:

Bumps are essentially a push with the body.

Bumps can be enacted against any Environmental Object but will always be executed with the body.

Bumps can be created with any part of the body, other than the extremities and head.

The most common part of the body with which to create a bump is the side of the hip or gluteous region, but this is not a requirement.

Hip bumps flow naturally into and from a buckle, due to the similarity in range.

Example(s):

Driving an opponent away from you by shuffling toward the opponent and having your hip collide with the opponent's hip, demonstrates a bump.

Opposite(s):
