Slide in Side Kick with Follow-Up Backfist

Instead of using a roundhouse kick, I drive straight in with a side kick to the body. I drop the kicking leg to neutral as I fire off a backfist.

I have transitioned from a front thrust kick through an offset kick and a roundhouse kick to thrusting side kick. The lead jab easily becomes a backfist. Variety may be the spice of life but in this case, the spices aren’t all that different.

Without prejudice
