This is a demonstration kick, a pose held for the camera, to show a perfect side kick. They guy on the left is just there to be a target – he’s not supposed to try to defend himself. Not a blocking fail, as you suggest!
You certainly don’t know your stuff when saying the kick has little or no penetration because it’s at full stretch. A karate kick has most of the power delivered in the snap at the end – penetrating only a couple of inches. Doh!

This is a demonstration. He would never spar like that..lol The reason the guy on the right’s belt looks like that is kind of to show that he has been a black belt for a long time ie long enough for the belt to wear out. From the looks of it he is demonstrating a side kick or more likely a hook heel kick. But, my question is why the guy throwing the kick has dropped his right hand. And my friend on the left is in an odd sparring position to begin with.

Kicker’s leg is at full extension with *little to no penetration*. It’s an attention-getter, but not much damage done from what I see. Still a blocking fail for the other guy.

And to get it out of the way… *=”That’s what she said…”

The cream colour is from the black covering on the belt getting worn off from long use. It’s broken in, is all.

The man on the left is just standing – not attacking (he’d have an arm out punching, and you never really attack in forward stance).
The man on the right is performing a perfect side kick pose, helf for the camera.
For all the stupid comments on “He’s not protecting himself” – you don’t defend your groin on a side kick. You’ve be off balance. Even a front kick you only protect your upper body.
How do some posters feel they can call people in the picture stupid, when they don’t even know what they’re talking about themselves??

There are schools where advanced practitioners can and do come extremely close with good control. If this were a sparring match, it would look more like a fail (I’ve seen such pix, for real!) where you see the same idea.

The “receiver” is supposed to stand still while the “attacker” practices moves. The only possible fail I see here is the attacker may have made contact, which is a no-no for One-Step. It could just be reeeaallly close which would show remarkable control and,distance-awareness… therefore, a Pass.
