YELLOW BIRD, RISING DRAGON AND GALLOPING TIGER
Yellow Bird Drinks Water
This video series shows the first part of Combat Sequence 4. The organ-seeking kick executed here in the pattern “Yellow Bird Plays with Water” is purposely inconspicuous but deadly, ending combat in just one move. Another pattern that executes the organ-seeking kick is “Rising Dragon Galloping Tiger”, which is as effective as it is poetic, striking an opponent's head and groin at the same time.
