Muay Thai Roundhousekick

Sanda and the Muaythai Roundhouse-Kicks ( dtae wiang ) are almost the same.
The only difference is that in Muaythai you hit with the shin and in Sanda with the ankle (or a few cm above ) In MT ( muaythai ) this is one of the most popular and strongest kicks, thats why MT-Fighters spend a lot of time hardening their shins. Most MT fights start with Roundhouse-Kicks, while most sanda-fights start with Sidekicks.
