Blocking bag or shield

Same strike as the club-rip, but the arm goes over the defender’s shoulder instead of under it. It’s the counter to the rip: you use it once he has learned to block the low rip.

Key points

  • The arm moves high and fast; it does not wrap around the shoulder.
  • The feet continue to move forward as the arm swings through.
  • Alternate between the "rip" and "swim" techniques in the same set, without announcing which one to do.

Common mistakes

  • Raising your arm before your step is committed, which exposes your whole chest.
  • Slowing down as the arm comes over.
