The fist should be rotated so that the bottom faces outward and slightly upward with the thumb bracing the outside of the first index knuckle. The foot should be turned toes out to 45 degrees with the heel on the centreline. After full extension of the kick, sharply draw the kicking leg straight down to the heel without bending the knee
This downward jerking motion simulates a leg block or take down and serves as the leading step for the Syeung Ma Boang Sau
During this motion, the right Boang Sau and left Woo Sau are executed with forward reference to the original centreline and timed to conincide with the right sliding step of the advance
MOVEMENT 56

MOVEMENT 57
Toh Ma Boang Sau (Step/Slide/Wing arm deflection):
without changing the forward reference, take a short sideward step to the left heel (57a) and slide the right foot the exact distance stepped by the left to gain the original width of the stance, executing a right Boang Sau with the stepping syllable of the footwork
As the right arm comes up, the left hand raises to Woo Sau position with the left palm facing the upper right inner forearm and the fingertips angled slightly backward toward the right biceps. Both wrists should be on the centreline and the forearms should be parallel.
