Written Summary:
This tape gives a
person exactly what it says it does. It's one of the best we've seen on kicking.
And it definitely lives up to its name ULTIMATE KICKING DRILLS. We counted over 60
drills/exercises. Many of these are sure to help improve ones kicking ability.
This
tape got several "10's". Mr. Kim's ability was impressive, without question,
he scored a "10" on # 2. The tape had no excessive repetition, thereby
scoring a "10" on #7. The tape had so many great exercises, along with
making one very interested in watching Mr. Kim's form while performing various kicks,
that he scored a "10" on # 8. And we feel that as far as this tape making
someone a better martial artist, especially a kicker, it definitely would based on
the drills. So we scored a "10" on #4 too.
If you've been looking
for a tape to help you with your kicking, or you're tired of doing those same old
drills over-and-over again, give this tape a try. It should definitely breath new
life into your training, by helping you target specific problem areas with your kicks,
and giving you some new and exciting exercises.
