Piranha Gear Kick Paddle - Single pad We first intended these paddles for people that practice Karate, Tae Kwon Do, MMA or UFC mixed martial arts ...but they work just as well for Kickboxing, Krav Maga, Muay Thai and general stand up combat arts. These were specifically designed for vertical axe kicks, spinning kicks or any similar strike. If you're looking for a generic "kick shield", this probably isn't the one you're looking for - wrong shape. These are NOT sold in pairs so we just wanted to be sure you knew - this is just one kick paddle.
