Utilizing the cross-step to change the angle on the fly. Pressurize on the half-diamond, then cut out while cutting the opponents angle #1 with the horizontal... This keeps the footwork light and fast while covering much distance controlling the range and timing.
Here are a few new as well as old clips working the cross-steps with knives and longer weapons (Sticks and Ginuntings). The new clips are working offensively, the old clips are working counter-offensively.
