In a whipping manner he
demonstrates doing an inside crescent kick followed by a snappy front kick. Or
an Outside crescent kick also followed by a variation of a snappy front
kick.

When I was a beginner we used to do an
inside crescent kicks and the return with an outside crescent kick, over a
partner’s head, where they had first bent over. We would try to come as close
to the partner’s head as possible.
What is being shown is just that drill,
slightly modified for the actual kick being used.
Another group with similar unique kicking practices was David Brojack’s Kempo Goju. Their West Wing kick and their West Wind kick were both variations on the crescent kick.
Beginning
from a left cat stance the West Wing
Kick was where you would jump up and deliver a front inside crescent kick and while descending you would follow
with a right outside crescent kick.
Then
from a left cat stance for the West Wind kick you would jump up and deliver a
front outside crescent ikci and then while descending follow with a left inside
crescent kick.
I
learnt that while training with David and have never seen them elsewhere.
