The extended outward block / half-knuckle sequence is as follows:
| 1) | step forward into a right neutral bow with the execution of a right extended outward block while simultaneously retracting the left hand to the left pectoral region (formed into a half-knuckle) |
| 2) | rotate in-place forward into a right forward bow with the execution of a left snapping half-knuckle strike |
| 3) | reverse the motion of the previous step back to the original position |
| 4) | rotate ninety degrees to the left with the draw of the left foot toward the right into a left forty five degree cat stance while simultaneously executing a right hammering inward block along with the retraction of the left arm into chamber |
| 5) | step forward into a left neutral bow with the execution of a left extended outward block while simultaneously retracting the right hand to the right pectoral region (formed into a half-knuckle) |
| 6) | rotate in-place forward into a left forward bow with the execution of a right snapping half-knuckle strike |
| 7) | reverse the motion of the previous step back to the original position |
An analysis of this sequence exposes the following information:
•the blocking sequence (extended outward) is the upside-down version of the previous (downward) blocking sequence
•the sequence uses one-in-one timing
•the sequence introduces a realistic cocked position of the rear hand
•positioning in the sequence allows for Economy of Motion for each maneuver
•the sequence introduces leaving the blocking weapon in blocking position (realistic positioning) during execution of the strike
•the sequence finishes the upper part of the 'x' pattern, but technically never travels on it (unlike the previous sequence)
•the sequence reverses the power principle order of the downward block / heel-palm sequence
Extended Outward Block Specific Information
An analysis of this maneuver exposes the following information:
•the draw of the rear hand is to a realistic position (cocking)
•the block is technically executed outside of the Outer Rim
•the block is NOT the reverse of the inward block - the opposite
•the block contains a large degree of counter-rotational torque4
Half-knuckle Specific Information
An analysis of this maneuver exposes the following information:
•the strike is delivered from a Line of Sight position
•the strike is formed prior to its execution (as opposed to during)
•the strike is executed on a vertical plane - the opposite (horizontal) plane of the middle-knuckle strike
•the strike alignment adds a degree of back-up mass to the strike
•the weapon formation demonstrates 'degree of' concept
Transition Specific Information
An analysis of this maneuver exposes the following information:
•the maneuver demonstrates the opposite side of the Long Form One cat transition
•the double factor demonstrates a degree of cup and saucer where only the chambered arm is cocked to the cup and saucer position
•the first double factor demonstrates an example of a left hammering inward block in the forms
