The Roundhouse kick is also often executed with a surprising downward tilt from high up, in what has been often called "the Brazilian kick" (downward roundhouse kick) because of influence from Brazilian Kyoukushin Karateka, such as Ademir de Costa, and notable students such as Glaube Feitosa and Francisco Filho. 

The brazilian kick is called Gamal-Chigi. Its a cut or roundhouse kick mid or low into a higher kick. Its two kicks. Question mark kick is a fake into a kick. both have two motions but one has two contact points,the other one has one

This is also called the Question Mark Kick.

 a full spin-back (spin back roundhouse kick and 360 spin back roundhouse kick), due to Taekwondo influences. It is executed with exaggerated tilt of the upper body (body bent roundhouse kick and hand-to-floor roundhouse kick), as derived from Capoeira influences

The knee is then rotated so that it is nearly parallel to the ground (counterclockwise for the right leg roundhouse) and the kicking hip is simultaneously rotated towards the opponent. The rotation of the hip, combined with the snapping of the leg forward, gives the kick its power. The striking surface is the instep or the ball of the foot.

The roundhouse kick can also be thrown from the rear leg towards the target and strike with the lower shin or the instep. This method is to get a quick strike on the opponent before they see it coming. The kick is swung and then snapped in front of the practitioner to give them more power and velocity. The taekwondo kicking method is unique on its own. This makes the Taekwondo version of the kick much faster
