Rider Kick

The nihongo|Rider Kick|ライダーキック|Raidā Kikku is the finishing move from the Kamen Rider Series. It has traditionally consisted of a flying side kick and is used against the monster/kaijin after it has been weakened from fighting with the Rider. Throughout the various Kamen Rider series, it has taken many different forms and has become somewhat less prominent among Rider attacks. Despite this, the Rider Kick remains one of the more well-known staples of the franchise.

Kick Variations

* Flying Side Kick (aka "Flying Kick" or "Jump Kick") - A standard flying kick. The Rider either jumps or flips towards the monster and finishes with a side kick. This is the most commonly used kick for a Rider Kick.

* Flying Front Kick (aka "Jumping Front Kick", "Bicycle Kick" or "Push Kick") - The Rider normally leaps forward and is facing the monster while performing multiple front kicks while one leg is tucked in a bicycle fashion.

* Drop Kick - The Rider will leap into the air and then drop down onto the monster, kicking it with both feet together. This attack strikes from above than from the front.

* Corkscrew Kick (aka "Screw Kick", "Drill Kick" or "Spiral Kick") - Similar to the Drop Kick, but the Rider will spin while dropping.

* Axe Kick - The Rider jumps up and the kick strikes downward with the heel of the foot at the adversary.

* Scissor Kick ("or Leg Scissors") - The Rider either jumps or flips towards the monster and will finish with a scissor kick.

* Roundhouse Kick - The attack where the rider attacks the foe with a forward spinning round kick.

* Tornado Kick (aka "Cyclone Kick", "540 Spin Kick", or "Flying Inward Crescent") - A variant of a flying roundhouse kick; however, the area of impact varies (ie instep, heel, arc, etc).
