The major information compiled from an analysis of this form is:
•it creates a new classification of form - the extension form (which is an extension to the encyclopedic forms)
•it is an extension to all previous forms
•it is primarily self-defense based
•it continues progressing integration of the salutation into the form
•it introduces the reverse neutral bow, concave, and diamond (convex) stances
•it introduces the ridge-hand, stomping (with ball of foot), neck break maneuver
•it introduces truly leaving the ground (progression of hop-switch) (hop, jump, leap)
•it introduces man-made weapons (preview of things to come)
•it demonstrates the isolation sequences (speculatively) by isolating the top half (e.g. arms and hands) and using the bottom half of the body (e.g. legs and feet)
•it demonstrates maneuvers starting with the potential opponent being at a disadvantage (on hands and knees)
•it demonstrates using the ground (environmental object) offensively (vise-like maneuvers / take-down)
•it demonstrates destabilizing the opponent through a variety of methods (buckle, sweep, trip, take-down, throw-down)
•it demonstrates hidden (obfuscated) maneuvers
•it demonstrates impractical maneuvers
•it demonstrates maneuvers using complimentary forces
•it demonstrates maneuvers using opposing forces
•it demonstrates maneuvers within visual sight of the potential opponent (Zone of Visibility)
•it demonstrates maneuvers outside the visual sight of the potential opponent (Zone of Obscurity)
•it demonstrates multiple maneuvers on a single line (3-on-line)
•it catalogs responses from a variety of attacks (both minor and major) ranging from: grabs (applied) - kicks, punches (in-flight) - weapon (stick) (in-flight)
Major Principles / Theories / Concepts:
3-on-line Anchor Buckle Complimentary Forces Contact Manipulation Contour Defensive Defense Defensive Offense Destabilize Fulcrum Gauging Grab Hop Isolation (Sequence) |
Jump Leap Lever Leverage Major Minor Object Obscurity Offensive Defense Offensive Offense Opposing Forces Pin Pivot (Point) Pull Purposeful Aggression |
Purposeful Deflection Purposeful Evasion Sandwich Scissor Stomp Sweep Take-down Throw-down Trip Vise-Like Weapon to Target / Target to Weapon Zone Isolation Zone of Obscurity (Obscure Zone) Zone of Visibility |
Major Physical Reverses / Opposites / Categories:
•new offenses: double stomp, scoop-front chicken kick
•new defenses: evasion
•new maneuvers: jump, leap
•new attacks: man-made weapon (stick)
•new isolation sequence method: bottom from top
•themes: 3-on-line, complimentary / opposing forces, out of position (hanging hands), take-down (destabilize), lower body maneuvers, leaving the ground, figure 8 (continued from Form Four)
•theme stances: reverse neutral bow, concave, diamond (convex)
