Variations

Double: Forearms finish side-by-side. If a low block, lead forearm is in front. If a high block, lead forearm is in back. Contact is made using outer edge (little finger side) of both forearms.

Reversed: If fists on rotate 90° toward the thumb side so thumbs so hands finish with palms down near elbows, the contact area is the bottom side of trailing forearm. May also be used with the hands open in a knife hand shape.  This is still a double bone block.
