Shane you have no idea how much this video helped me.

I would pull off the kick sometimes but always have terrible difficulty doing so. This filled in every hole I had with this kick set up. Thank you 🙏🏽

Another important difference between the wheel kick and spinning hook kick vs the spinning crescent kick is the reach. The spinning crescent kick works only from closer range. On the other hand if the person steps forward your balance will be a little bit better as your standing upright on one leg rather than leaning back on one leg. My favourite set up for the spinning crescent kick is to fake a frontkick and use the knee up to step in closing the distance for the crescent kick (as you step down you land with the foot pivoted for the spin).

I really like this move as an asset. Pretty useful for a defense/recovery, and honestly it’s pretty unpredictable. Most ppl wouldn’t see you throwing a kick from the inside to the outside most kicks are expected to be someone spinning going from a stance, kicking across the body or ig towards the inward of the body for lack of better explanation. Cool stuff man

Connecting with your shin works well but I try to just slap my friends with my foot instead. To avoid serious damage Atleast.

Awesome. Was going to mention the axe kick and you brought it up lol. Also in capoeira we know these kicks by different names but they definitely have use case at least in muay thai (I don't do MMA). Eddy Gordo in Tekken 8 uses the quiexada (jaw in portuguese, inside crescent) from the same position as your missed round house kick. The difference is that he leans more into the failed kicked and gets more rotation on the inside crescent and turns it into a deadly axe kick. It's a very good recovery kick and might even end the fight if you land it right.

Its great to see the crescent kick get more respect. A ton of people ragged on it just because its a traditional technique and most people were used to roundhouse, but this is a superior kick for most people for the reasons stated. You don't have to be as flexible and its more versatile than the roundhouse.

The one thing that I'd add to this video that I don't believe was said... The crescent kick is really nice in a lot of cases when fighting against someone that has an inch or two on you specifically in terms of height. Reason for that being, if you're well stretched out your heel should elevate above your head like shown in the video and crossing the face of your opponent for a direct hit.
