Kendo「剣道」- A game of disarming Shinais (Chudan vs. Jodan) [VID:20121021002]

This Kendo video is taken from the Shibuya Kendo Taikai on the 21st of October 2012. A great video where you find the senshu disarming each other's shinai in the beginning of the game. From the looks of it, probably from the frustration not being able to score at the beginning.

For those of you who are wondering why the jodan got an ippon is because he did a form of katsugi waza and the opponent's kisen was already very dead when the jodan was going in for a strike.

[@ericfavre2301]

red senshu men is ippon to me, it's not obvious because of the white background and the speed of the shinai that makes it blurred. anyway opportunity was there and red senshu shinai cuts from above and beyond white senshu defence.

This is one interesting game.

[@Petike9108]

Why was this last is ippon? the white senshu had blocked the red's shinai. It's visible in normal speed as well. How could they call this ippon?

Kalligráfia & Bonsai Minden Ami Japán that’s what I thought too

[@ipswitchbellyclams3570]

Only one shimpan called it correctly, sucks for him.

[@jmpcoelho]

was it ippon, for sure? I mean... it seems to me that shiro's shinai is there at the moment of the impact... isn't it???

[@thkun33]

Just by hear the sound already known it’s no ippon. Very obvious it’s the sound of shinai. No Men a ri . To be shipan, I think not only by eyes but ears as well

[@MorbusFreak2011]

This fight is weird...

[@user-ee7jz4pl4x]

i think the last men is ippon obviously. white couldn't protect perfectly. red's men hit right side of whites face.

Sayu men

Indeed... That was quite obvious, it wasn't Ippon, Even in normal speed.
