*I charge at your clone and jump into the air when I get into close range. As I'm jumping towards your clone, I grab his neck with both of my hands and pull me towards him to increase my speed. I pull up my right knee and smash it into the clones face. As my knee hits your clone I release him from my grip, causing him to stagger backwards and fall to the ground.*

Perfect. So do you remember that certain move where you bring your knee up to that person's face over and over again?
Grab my clone's head with both your hands and then smash your knee repeatedly. O_O LOL.

No I don't remember that certain move... But I'll try ^^

*I grab your clone's head with both of my hands and launch my self upwards over and over again. As I do that I pull up my right knee to smash it into the clone's face, every time I pull my body upwards.*

Now, for this next jutsu, throw my clone up into the air in any way possible, then follow up by grabbing his ankles while in midair and wrapping your legs around his waist. Then, turn around in the air and slam his head first into the ground. Describe the impact it has on the ground and his head. O_O

*I dash towards your clone and launch him into the air by using (Shōgekishō) - Upwards Attacking Palm. Then I quickly grab his ankles and wrapp my legs around his waist. While still in mid air, I turn myself and your clone around and slam him head first into the ground. As I stand up to see the result, the clone's head looks somewhat different than before o_O His face is battered and the technique damaged even the ground, leaving a small crater beneath your clone.*

O_O That's not a pretty picture...! LOL

Haha, the picture just got awesome in a way xd

-----

*By performing a series of three flips I get near your clone, landing in a stble position right in front of him after finishing the last flip (my left foot slightly in front of my right, my left shoulder pointing towards your clone). I use the momentum I gained for a upwards thrust to his chin with my right palm, followed by two punches to his chest, two low kicks aimed for each of his legs, one swinging punch with my left fist to the right side of his face and another palm thrust, this time striking downwards and knocking your clone to the ground.*

Excellent start with the chin. Usually, in freeform Tai, you want to completely disable your opponent, striking the vulnerable areas first.

And thanks, Tybone made it. xd I still have your last one to use though. ^_^
And aww. :(

Well, then, proceed to toss my clone into the air, any way you wish. Once you do so, match his movements in the air, while you can control his, he can't control his.
Mirror his movements in the air so that you're directly under his shadow.
Describe what such a move could be used for.

*I dash at your clone and perform a vertical kick, aimed right beneath his chin to launch him into the air. By jumping into the air I follow right behind him. While in mid air I use the advantage that I can control my movements to stay close to the clone and copy every movement as well as slight changes in his direction/position in the air.*

This sounds exactly like what Rock Lee did before using the front lotus, I think. It would make sense to use it that way, since the front lotus requires to be close behind your opponent in the air and the directions in which both "fall" towards the ground have to be identicall, too.

Perfect! You are completely correct! Keep this move in mind as we will need to use it later for another move.
(Kage Buyō) - Shadow of the Dancing Leaf
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage Points: 5
Description: A technique where one follows the opponent, closely matching his or her body's movement, just like a leaf that dances in the air is followed by its shadow. The technique is usually preceded by a swift upper kick that will launch the target into the air. It is mainly used to position an opponent into a vulnerable aerial position. This move by itself is harmless, but it is usable as a stepping stone for a great many powerful techniques like Front Lotus and the Lion Combo. That said, it also has a rather high degree of difficulty.
Okay, now proceed to dash at my clone, first executing a low kick that links easily into a middle kick (while taking this into the air to build velocity) and then a high kick that ends with a heel drop that sends him back to the ground, successfully finishing him off.

*I dash towards your clone and perform a low kick using my right foot. I then perform a 360 spin to gain speed and easily continue to attack your clone first with a middle kick, and after another 360 my foot hits his head. While I spin, I rise into the air, and end the attack by thrusting my right foot downwards, finishing your clone off with a heel drop that sends him to the ground.*

Very good. Remember that the higher you go in the air, the more you are able to utilize the law of gravity to your advantage.
(Konoha Daisenpū) - Leaf Great Whirlwind
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage Points:15
Description: This technique is a series of kicking attacks, starting from a low kick and linking into a middle kick and high kick then finishing off with a heel drop. As the rotation speed picks up the user gains buoyancy, which they use to shift into gradually higher attacks.
Now, proceed to rush towards my clone and strike him with a shoulder, followed by a punch. O_O

*while you finish explaining I allready start to run towards your clone. When I get into close range I pull back my right shoulder, just to push it foreward as fast as I can to strike your clone's chest with it. Because I thrust my right shoulder foredward, the left side of my body is slightly moved backwards. I use the gained space between me and your clone to form a fist with my left hand and strike your clone right beneath the right side of his ribcage, thus dealing damage to his inner organs. Both strikes happen within the blink of eye, first pushing the upper half of his body back a little, then making him bend over due to the pain in his stomach.*

Excellent places to target!
However, let's briefly discuss the "body slam". What are some disadvantages and advantages to it?

Disadvantages:
Since I thrust my body towards my opponent with any defense, it's actually a quite dangerous move. Using it means offerimg my front side to my opponent with out covering it, so unless he is somehow disabled to move/attack it's kind of suicidal, because if he is able to attack I would barely have enough time to counter or parry/block it.
In case my opponent somehow dodges or I miss him I would loose balance because I push my body foreward to utilize my weight to increase the damage. I guess I would even fall to the ground what makes me even more vulnerable.

Advantages:
One advatage is, if the first strike with my shoulder hits, my opponent wouldn't be able to counter the punch because he would have to deal with the pain while he's thrown off balance. It's like a guarantied second hit.
When the attack is succesful my opponent would be vulnerable and an easy target because of the pain and being thrown off balance and he might even fall to the ground, due to the impact of the strike with my shoulder.

Excellent, you basically lose control of your body weight for a slight moment if you miss this attack. In this case, you'd somehow want to retain balance or try to prevent a more painful fall.
And well said on the advantages part, it's basically a risky move but also has great results.
(Rakanken) - Nirvana Fist
Rank: C
Type:Attack
Range:Short
Chakra Cost:N/A
Damage Points:15
Description: A powerful shoulder smash followed by a strong punch.
Now, remember Shadow of the Dancing Leaf?
Proceed to use that and after making my clone vulnerable in the air, kick him higher and higher, taking advantage of the velocity. Once at the pinnacle point, proceed to kick him down onto the ground.
Describe how gravity takes a part.

*While in mid air and right behind your cloneI oerform one kick after the other to get him higher into the air. Since he's still unable to properly control his movements he can neither block nor dodge them. Due to the gravity we reach the pinnacle after 4 kicks and as that happens I strike him with another kick that is directed downwards and send him down to the ground. The original source of his speed is my kick but gravity increases his velocity, the longer he falls. Due to being about 8 meters above the ground he crashes to the surface with high speed while I land smothly next to him.*

Excellent.

(Shishi Rendan) - Lions Barrage
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: N/A
Damage Points:15
Description: A variant technique of the Front Lotus, It is an ultra-fast combo attack that requires an advanced physical condition and a certain knack for it. The opponent is first kicked into the air and shadowed with the Shadow of the Dancing Leaf. Upon inflicting a blow, one takes advantage of said opponent's counterattack to spin around and rise again for further assaults. Since the fall is increased in velocity with each blow, the damage when one is eventually struck to the ground is inconceivable. All variations end with the opponent being thrown to the ground and kicked in the chest.
Now, what do you know of the Drunken Fist?
