Mae geri kekomi ... ask you missus, that's the version the ninjas do.
Mmm... not from what I've seen. Ninjitsu front kicks tend to be VERY snappy.. with the hips held WELL back. They're intended to strike pressure points on the insides of the legs and arms while close quarter fighting, hence the foot is held at 90 degrees like a push kick, but the leg movement is definately keage.
