Chapa de costas (back plate) is a back push kick in capoeira, and one of the few principal capoeira's kicks.Шаблон:Sfn It is also basic kick in African martial art engolo, the forerunner of capoeira.Шаблон:Sfn
Chapa de costas is typical kick of capoeira Angola.Шаблон:Sfn This "malicious" kick is similar to chapa de frente, applied from the back to the opponent.Шаблон:Sfn
Origin
Various back push kicks are common in engolo, an Angolan martial art considered the ancestor of capoeira. Engolo players often do a rotation with a back push kick, with or without jumping.[1] Another variation is a hooking kick executed from behind, resembling the capoeira kick gancho de costas. This particular kick is employed when the adversary's upper torso is in close proximity to one's own body.[1]
Ngolo mimics the animal behavior, and the base techniques of engolo seems to be derived from the specific way of zebra fighting.Шаблон:Sfn A defining feature of engolo is the "zebra kick", back kick executed with the palms touching the ground.Шаблон:Sfn
Technique
Chapa de costas usually aims at the opponent's face or groin area.Шаблон:Sfn
According to mestre Pastinha, chapa de costas is a "treacherous strike when used against someone unfamiliar with capoeira", as the opponent is violently struck when they believe the attacker is withdrawing.Шаблон:Sfn So Pastinha warns that a cautious capoeirista is "suspicious" and does not allow to be fooled by the apparent withdrawal of a potential aggressor.Шаблон:Sfn
Variations
Mule kick (coice de mula)
There is a low variation of chapa de costas, performed with both hands on the ground while one of the legs is pushed towards the other player. In this variant, chapa de costas resembles a mule kick.Шаблон:Sfn
Mule kick is a direct kick delivered to the back, while looking through the arms to the opponent.Шаблон:Sfn This kick starts with a bent knee and then thrusts directly towards the target. The sole of the foot is the striking surface.Шаблон:Sfn
Low chapa de costas has the unique aspect of having a foundation of three limbs on the ground instead of one, which creates an exceptionally stable base for kicking.Шаблон:Sfn
To gain momentum, the mule kick may arise from negativa. After the spin, when the body balances on the feet and hands, one leg thrusts toward the opponent with the heel leading.Шаблон:Sfn
Double mule kick (coice duplo)
As the name suggests, coice duplo is a strike delivered with both feet to the chest or stomach.Шаблон:Sfn To execute a kick, the capoeirista, starting from a position facing the opponent, turns their body while supporting their hands on the ground, facing away from the opponent. Suddenly, by bending and lifting the legs, they launch both feet together toward the chosen target.Шаблон:Sfn
The double mule kick is a dangerous attack movement that can be used when escaping under armada, queixada, or meia-lua-de-compasso.Шаблон:Sfn To perform the double mule kick, the capoeirista should evade the attack and get near the attacker by doing a "half" rolê. Then, the capoeirista should forcefully kick the attacker under the chin with both feet.Шаблон:Sfn
Defenses
Defense against the standing chapa de costas can be applied with a quick descent and the application of a takedown (rasteira).Шаблон:Sfn
