The guy didn’t even get full extension. There was more power there for sure. Notice the right arm swing for extra momentum. Ouch!

How doea that saying go. Beware of the person who has practiced 1 technique a million times not the person who has praticed a million techniques once. Those guys shins are scary deadly!
