    Rocky Mountain Splitting Wave (岩山両斬波, Ganzan Ryōzan Ha) is a powerful Hokuto Shin Ken technique, taking the form of downward chop which fractures an opponent's skull.

    The effect might be achieved without any direct contact, as usually moves involving the term Wave (, Ha) use Fighting Spirit (闘気, Tōki) to strike.
