Ok, i know they are said to be banned bc of a demonstration someone saw of people breaking ice and bricks that way or something.. (actually i only ever hear joe talk about it so i dont really know, but i trust him). but in my head.. 12 to 6 elbows logically do seem MUCH more dangerous to me.. #1 just the simple physics of the angles. A glancing/angled elbow wouldnt seem nearly as bad as a blow delivered straight down on the point of your elbow. And #2 i know joe says its no more powerful than the others.. but it seems like you have the ability to use a LOT more core strength doing 12-6 elbows.. i dont know thats just my thoughts.. anyone else have any thoughts on the subject? (and btw i feel i should mention.. although i do think 12-6 elbows are likely to create more damage, i dont think they should be illegal. bc i dont think were talking life/death damage, i was just thinking bigger gashes/cuts)
