THRUSTING SALUTE Front Right Step Through Kick

1. Standing naturally, step back with your right foot to 4:30 (to get you out of the Line of Attack) into a left neutral bow, as you deliver a left downward block to the inside of your opponent's right kicking leg. Instantly recoil your left hand counter-clockwise into a vertical position, to act as a positional check (hand open). (Your downward block should deflect your opponent's right kicking leg out and away from you.) During this action, your right hand cocks near your right hip (palm up and fist clenched).
   
2. Immediately execute a right front snap ball kick to your opponent's groin. (Do not be surprised you if your opponent violently bends forward at the waist.)
   
3. Plant your right foot forward, toward 10:30, and into a right neutral bow (inside of your opponent's right knee so that your right knee can check or buckle his right knee). Simultaneous with the plant (while capitalising on your forward momentum and gravitational marriage), execute a right torquing heel palm strike to your opponent's jaw, as your left positional check relocates near your right rib cage. (This action should cause your opponent's head to snap back, and possibly cause his entire body to move away from you.)
   
4. Right front crossover, and cover out toward 4:30.

Summary

If you look at this technique as a left kick it may be viewed as a possible ‘what if’ ‘Deflecting Hammer’. The same first move and block are used causing a angle of deflection and angle of deviation and provides and angle of entry for your next strike if you deliver your left ball kick to the groin just as your opponents leg lands, you stop his forward momentum and employ borrowed force, then finish with a left heel palm to face, using marriage of gravity. Should your hammer fist catch your opponents left leg slightly later and have a greater impact causing his body to rotate more and making your kick more difficult, insert the finish of deflecting hammer on the inside instead of the outside of your opponent, use your jamming move to open up and square your opponent for the downward diagonal forearm strike, which borrows force and uses marriage of gravity.
