sanjuro,
i don't box with my feet, so i don't kick box
but you are still speaking about usage from the standpoint of forms. They overkill in their forms, but that trains that killer mentality. I don't see too many schools that use that OVERKILL strikes like found in kajukenbo. period.
when we speak of launching a barrage of techniques, as in CLF, what do think we are doing? something from our forms?

The kenpo philosophy of "overkill is just enough" trains the practitioner to throw multiple strikes, each one flowing into the other, each action creating a reaction in the body, as well as setting up the next strike(both in the attacker's body and the 'loading' of the kenpo practitioner's) This does not mean that you will throw all these strikes. You can stop at one, if one is all it takes.But, it does give the ability to continue without pause during that,what if stage, or as I call it, the "OSS"-"Oh S*** Scenerio."
The problem is, the kenpo practitioner should be always checking, controlling, trapping, the attacker while doing this, rather than having him stand there with his fist out, while he does his dance of death.
I see this occurring more with the Villari "Shaolin Kempo" and their offshoots, rather than the Ralph Castro/Ed Parker/Tracy/Emperado Kenpo/Kajukenbo styles, that make more hands on use of the live hand.

anyone have any vid footage of Steve Sanders, aka Steve Mohammed? He was one of the few kenpo fighters that they said you could see his kenpo in his fighting.

The problem is that, in a real fight, people hit back and that, to compromise the structure of someone you have to hit them, VERY HARD, and in the right palces, and on a moving target.
And that just doesn't work when trained the way they do.
Look at all the kenpo clips and kajukenbo clips on youtube, what do you see in the full contact ones ( when you can find them)?

sanjuro,
are you saying that since it was semi-contact, although it did well that way, that it wouldn't be effective in FULL CONTACT?

tis sad but true. It is extrememly difficult to strike fast, say with a quick backfist or jab,and have real power behind it. Dempsey put alot of time into developing the stiff jolt and drop-step lead aka Bruce Lee's straight blast.
One of the hardest things in SPM is developing that lightning speed, backed with power. Too many people are just quick and whippy. (looks easy, but in actual practice, it is extremely difficult to master)

Can we not derail this thread to Kempo/Kajukenpo and get back to CLF?
All non-CLF threads eventually turn into a CLF history/lineage war.
CLF threads turn into Kempo threads.
WTF?

It is bias to think that the art of war is just for killing people. It is not to kill people, it is to kill evil. It is a strategem to give life to many people by killing the evil of one person.
