Highlights of 15WKC Takanabe x WSKim Men' s Individual Finals

There were basically 3 opportunities during this match that lasted about 7 minutes. I have picked these 3, and showed in regular speed and slow motion.

Ariga-sensei- This is very helpful. Do you have any opinion on why the shimpan did not award ippon to Kin;s Kaeshi-doh strike? Thank you.

GettaRoboG because Takanabe hit the men before i think, the "kaeshi" part is not perfect

I agree, and that was also not good cutting and posture. he didn't cut through the do. the shinai went down Takanabe's right side, not even diagonal, and the tip of the shinai went around Takanabe's toes. it wasn't a fine execution. some people must only focus on the target zone.

the film maker are kumdo ,. if japan team want,, they could win all category in a flash,. have you seen these macth over all?? takanabe did not fight like he fight in japan,. he just wait patienly to not beat the koreans in a flash, . since old days,. japan never want to win ,. but when eiga naoki wins AJKF & WKC japan start showing the world what is kendo all about,. but still let the others to win too well WKC is not all japan championship level,.
