Block Techniques 9-Shaped Block |

Movement: As the opponent punches to the your middle section, you perform a low outer forearm block with the lead arm across the middle section in a downward motion against the attacker's wrist, while simultaneously snapping the trailing fist upward under the attacker's elbow and toward your opposite shoulder. Arms make a scissor motion.
Contact: Contact is made using outer edge of leading forearm and with inside edge of trailing forearm.
Position: If performed without the attack, the trailing fist will stop at the opposite shoulder.
Used: Used against middle section punches.
Example: Use to block a trailing hand (reverse) punch to the solar plexus.
