An idiom describing a distinct form of non-contact Contouring- accomplished using an Angle of Execution with the intent to parallel an Environmental Line to the intended target.

Comments:

Strikes executed employing this concept have a good chance of successfully striking their intended target, because paralleling the opponent's defensive and/or offensive weapons creates a direct, unencumbered line to the target, and makes the weapon harder to block, due to the unconventional Angular Attack.

This term is almost always used in reference to offensive moves, but it is not limited to this perspective.

This term differs from an Angle of Mobility in that an Angle of Mobility refers to any potential Angle of Entry.

Example(s):

With the opponent in a Neutral Bow, one would find the following Complementary Angles:

a.forward, downward, diagonally over the front, defensive arm

b.forward, upward, diagonally under the front, defensive arm

c.inward, downward, diagonally to the back of the front leg

Derivation:

This term is derived from the fact the angle the strike is executed on complements, i.e. parallels, an Environmental Line.

A.K.A.:

Angle Matching, Angle of Opportunity
