Jump inside kick

The jump inside kick is a popular aerial move in kung fu and in martial arts tricking. It is also known as the tornado kick, whirlwind kick, and Xuanfengjiao in Chinese. In this kick, the performer launches from one leg into a 360° rotation that incorporates an inward snapkick in the air and then lands on the same leg. Advanced practioners can complete more than 360 degrees in their aerial rotation, including 540 and 720 degrees. The 540 kick is very popular in the tricking community and has many variations.
