The Saber staff. Good you can kick with this. Duel sabers you can not kick BUT the reborn can? Any thoughts on this.
I have study the Bo ( a six foot staff) in martial arts and there is times kicking just flows in with the move, but saying that if you time it right so does a headbutt!!
My point is kicking should be used in all three sabers, sometimes you would use a kick not to knock someone down but to push them away, this would be good for strong stance as some of the movements stretch quite far.
Apart from this I have played the demo to death it is excellent.
There is a command to allow kicking (flip kicks like JK2) with all saber types and stances.
See the "Not Enough Customization..." thread in this forum for details.
