Introduction and Prerequisites
Instructor Hunter Sloan introduces the flying back kick and emphasizes that practitioners must first master the fundamental stationary back kick before attempting the airborne variation. A solid foundation in the basic technique is essential for safe progression.
Fundamental Back Kick Mechanics
The basic back kick is executed from a comfortable stance by turning the body, looking over the back shoulder while keeping it rotated away from the opponent, raising the knee, and thrusting backward with the heel toward the opponent's midsection or face. The action sequence is characterized as turn, extend, and strike in rapid succession.
Transitioning to the Jumping Motion
The critical progression involves combining comfort with the jump while maintaining controlled rotation. The practitioner turns and lands in an opposite stance, allowing proper spin control while keeping the head upright and managing distance from the opponent.
Progressive Training Approach
Sloan recommends beginning with low-amplitude back kicks and gradually introducing small hops to build comfort and control. The height is increased incrementally, with the foot barely leaving the ground initially before progressively raising the trajectory.
Supplementary Drills for Height and Accuracy
A front-leg back kick drill involves lifting the leading leg and turning the shoulder away before jumping, developing explosive power from a single-leg takeoff. Additional progression includes alternating standard back kicks with flying back kicks on opposite sides.
Practical Sparring Applications and Combinations
Sloan demonstrates the flying back kick within realistic fighting scenarios, showing how the technique integrates into combination chains used during sparring matches.
Progression Summary
The five-step progression is outlined: mastering the stationary back kick, executing a jumping lead-leg back kick, performing a turning back kick with a small hop, incrementally increasing height, and finally launching from both feet simultaneously with full extension while tucking the lower leg for a clean finish.
