108. Fade R and execute a L #6 knife hand block followed immediately by a R thrust punch to the inside of the biceps on the opponent’s R arm. Step your L foot forward into a L half moon stance outside the opponent’s stance and execute a R knife hand to the near collar bone followed by a L knife hand to the near carotid artery, followed by a R knife hand to the near cheek bone, followed by a L rising palm to the R corner of the opponent’s jaw, followed by a R rising palm to the L corner of the opponent’s jaw. (The knife hand strikes are performed in a continuous hand over hand downwards circle to the opponent’s striking side, [the near side closest to you] and all five strikes are done in rapid succession without stopping the motion of your hands.) Grab the back of the opponent’s head and pull them down into a R knee to the center of the sternum. Shift your hands so that your fingers point down to the ground and grab the opponent around the face with tiger claws (Similar to holding a bowling ball in preparation to throw it granny style). Step you R foot across in front of your L into a twist stance and immediately unwind, spinning yourself counter clockwise and forcing the opponent to spin clockwise. End the spin so that you are back to back with the opponent with them leaning backwards and their head held in your hands over your R shoulder. Rip your hands downwards raking your tiger claws over the opponent’s face and hyper extending their neck over your shoulder. Step your R foot forward into a R half moon stance, look over your L shoulder and execute a L back kick to the T4-T5 region of the opponent’s spine. (From Rob Johnson of Bolton Martial Arts Club)
