| Side Strike (Yop Taerigi) |
If the body becomes half facing or side facing the target at the moment
of impact, it is called a side strike, and is executed in the form of an
outward strike. It can be performed with all stances. The knife hand and
back fist are primary weapons, though occasionally the side fist and back
hand are employed. The attacking tool forms a straight line with the
center of the shoulders at the moment of impact.
