This video shows a pad drill for the end of Hangetsu / Seishan kata. The crescent kick drops the enemy’s head for the punch. The downward double palm heel is then used should the enemy try to tackle from the position they are now in. To put contextualise the sequence, we enter with a hook, cover and pin, and then a redirection of the arm. The cover and pin are similar to what we see in Motobu’s 1st drill and Wado-Ryu’s Kihon Gumite No. 10. We conclude the drill by kicking the enemy’s ribs and escaping.

That hook is like a blaze of thunder...Excellent drills Iain-san!!
Nice..
Great as always. Lost some weight? ☺️ Looks good. Greatings from Germany...
After the first or second punch, you shouldn't need more techniques to knock down your enemy. Although it's an interesting mix, I do not know if it's really useful.
I think you are misunderstanding what is being shown. An aspiration is one thing; reality is another. Ideally, I want the first shot to drop him, but if it doesn’t then I want the next one too, and if it doesn’t then the next one … and so on. This is the Ikken Hissatsu concept. I always want it to end NOW and never have the aspiration of using a combination. However, nothing is guaranteed to work and if a technique fails (my mistake, enemy’s skill, thousands of other factors) then we should flow on to the next one in such a way that dominance is maintained. Flow is not something we seek, but it maybe something we need. As I tell my students, “Flow is the management of failure”. We always practise combinations on that understanding.
To put it another way, would you just quit is your second punch failed? I’m sure you would not, but you’d simply go on to a third, etc. That’s what’s been done in this drill. And it is a drill. It exists to permit the practise of a variety of methods. I hope that helps clarify.
All the best,
Iain
Thank you for the answer. Now it's clear and I totally agree with your point of view. As a drill, it seems to me perfect and good to get options but I usually convey my students the idea of " ikken hissatsu " , if possible , in a street fight , in order to prevent a long lasting fight with an uncertain result or if there are several fighters.
Best wishes,

Like it. But why a red belt. Cmon. Is black not good enought for you?
Because my black belt was packed to travel :-) As a 7th dan, red and white can be worn, so sometimes I do. I normally reserve it for “formal occasions” such as gradings etc, but I’ll also wear it when the black belt is indisposed.
