Human gait in reality extends beyond straight-line walking, with some situations even requiring drastic back-and-forth rotations. A smooth and stable execution may seem intuitive, but the underlying mechanics remains unknown. The Karate roundhouse kick may be an extreme case of exhibiting dynamic back-and-forth rotations, but investigating the angular momentum (AM) management can potentially inform stability analysis in dynamic human motions and smoother gait in robots and exoskeletons. This paper introduces two new AM-based measures and analyzes AM-related variables to study the target-less retractable back-leg Karate roundhouse kick. The purpose is to understand the underlying AM management, analyze the differences between stable and unstable kicks, and investigate how these variables and measures change over time with improvement. A one-year longitudinal study was conducted with the first author as a Karate student, and a Karate instructor was also recruited for one session as an expert, whose data is used for comparison. Results show that unstable kicks have higher peak total AM before Strike and smaller braking peak after Strike. The proposed AM-based measures are able to identify the cause of some unstable kicks, though no clear distinction could be made between stable and unstable kicks since kicks can be unstable for different reasons. Nonetheless, the proposed measures can be applied as performance measures to analyze other types of dynamic motions. To incorporate them as stability criteria, however, it is recommended to also consider their coordination with time, kinematics, and center of pressure.
