'''Seriyūtō uchi''' is often called a wrist bone strike or an ox jaw strike, though we typically default to the Japanese name, since there’s no straightforward English equivalent. Seriyūtō uchi is a modified version of [[Hassō-shutō uchi |hassō-shutō uchi]] which impacts the target with the end of the [[Shutō|shutō]], where the hand meets the wrist. This condenses the force of the strike down to a single point, for a more penetrating attack. This is most commonly used in place of a straight-down “12-to-6” [[Hassō-shutō uchi |hassō-shutō uchi]].

To perform a seriyūtō uchi, hold your hand above the target, with your fingers pointing down and away from you. Then, drop your wrist down and [[Snap|snap]] your fingers upward. This drop does not need to be large, and a skilled karateka can use seriyūtō uchi to break a board from 6” (15 cm) away. The hand’s “crack the whip” motion imparts additional [[Snap|snap]] to the technique, augmenting its power.
[Seriyūtō uchi fast and slow, from the front and side several times.]

Seriyūtō uchi is reserved for [[Advanced_students|advanced students]], because it assumes a high degree of skill with [[Hassō-shutō uchi |hassō-shutō uchi]], because it adds another layer of complexity to the technique.
