  • es malisimo

  • these vidoes really do help, thanks for posting ..

    black belt prelim 2morro :L

    hope all goes well :)

  • I bet at least half of the people watching this have a grading coming up. Myself included :D

  • @Allosaurus428 Yep me today! for red stripe (need to go over all patterns)

  • @ZoMbieKid97656 Good luck!!! :L

  • @Allosaurus428 Yep Woop Woop Two hours :D

  • Grading next monday..thanks for the video!!

  • I am going to get blue stripe

  • And that is what I call the correct way of breathing

  • KimSchoolTaeKwonDo

    This is the link to my school of TKD and they still teach TKD how GrandMaster Kim learned and taught it to the Korean Army. Estremely traditional, twisting at the waste for power instead of using the sine wave, and using exaggerated knee bends to be extremely low in stances. This is our 6th Gup green belt form. I was just promoted last night to 6th Gup (been studying since June 14th of 2010 at the Kim School of TKD).

  • grading coming up so need to learn off by heart.i cant wait for blue belt.

  • There seems to be a lot of unecessary arguments about WTF, ITF and his technique. What many people dont understand is that TKD has evolved so greatly after its foundation in the mid 20th Century. Because of this diversity has also developed. This means, depending on your instructor and locale, right and wrong are different for different people and for different reasons.

    Another thing to remember is that people are always learning, even 5th dans. Not everything he gets will be exactly right.

  • Actually, my instructor was a personal student of Gen. Choi, in the late 60's, early 70's in Korea. I realize that it evolved later, but it is not as the patterns were originally developed.

  • @KatherineNobles That is very interesting, given that the General was exiled from Korea in 1971 and had officially moved the ITF to Canada by 1972. How is that he was teaching in Korea while exiled?

    By the time of his death, nobody who followed the teachings of the General performed the forms as originally developed, since sine wave was added (by General Choi) in the mid-70's. I am shocked that a "personal student" of General Choi whould teach these forms without the sine wave.

  • Hehe, looks basicly the same as my trainer's doing it...seen a lot of different movement speeds...Exams in 2 weeks, hope it'll help. :D

  • What's with all the bouncing? I was always taught that your head had to remain level while moving between techniques.

  • @KatherineNobles do you do ITF taekwondo? the bounce is called the sine wave, it's only used in this style of TKD, no other martial art uses it as far as i'm aware. its designed to give extra power, the hips should move slightly with each bounce and the tech should be thrown on when coming down off the bounce. there is alot of speculation as to whether it works or not, i will say that when we spar, or in self defence situations, we don't use it, only in Tul and for breaking is it used.

  • wow, nice...

  • Thanks. Got testing for Blue tonight. These videos help a lot

  • Thank you for posting this video! I used it to practice my tul at home... I have the blue point belt

  • Thank you for posting this video! I used it to practice my tul at home...

  • Mine may be a 8th dan but he has a beer belly :D not so active anymore :P

  • the patterns good, nice feet, nce breath control, nice job

  • im going to do this tonight.. Wish me good luck!

  • HORRIVEL

  • Poland :D

  • Mr Suska won a gold for patterns in the World Champs 2011 in NZ so he is the best in the world, cant get much better than that.

  • Awesome kick control from this dude. I haven't specifically been taught about this sine wave business. Looked quite strange to me at first, but thinking about it now it's what I naturally do. Not to the extent of some (i tend to twist from the hips a bit more) but it's still present.

    Also, wayyy too many people trying to rip on everyone else's TaeKwonDo. It' a shame really that people who dedicate their time to improving their own skills, can't take a moment to learn respect for others.

  • musik plz i need this musik

  • nice knife movement..

    respect.

  • It's funny how people who hate on TKD or karate or other traditional arts, they say all they do is punch and kick, no grappling of any kind. Yet here @0:25-0:29, there is a prime example of grappling one TKD's early forms.

  • @deek77

    Why should you hate TKD or Karate because of lack of grappling?

    Anyway, to explain to those who are not illuminated.

    In TKD and Karate sparring, it is NOT allowed to use any form for grappling.

    However, if you want some techniques to defend yourself on the street, there is nothing wrong to do a simple punch in the face :)

    Secondly,there is a segment in TKD called Ho Sin Sul (Self defence) which is all grappling and such funnities. Not allowed in the ring, but works well on the street.

  • @YellowMagi I ask the same question myself, but it's people who are so in love with MMA and BJJ, and have bought into the marketing party lines of some (not all) of those proponents. They can't see the value and worth of other arts. But my main point was to say that there indeed are grappling/joint manipulation techniques in the forms of TKD and karate and other striking arts. It's just part of a whole system rather than the focus of it. That's all I was saying. Thanks for responding.

  • He's a lot better than me, that's for sure!

  • why is he going up and down all the time?

  • @Osirisrules Because thats the pattern

  • @Osirisrules take it...then you'll know

  • @mrsdkckr1 I think I'd rather not take a new martial art just to figure out why he bounces up and down a bit.

  • @Osirisrules To answer your question as no one else has, it's called sine wave. Using gravity to increase your power.

  • @AngelicPhantom ahh, ok. Thanks for the straight answer.

  • @Osirisrules sine wave (probably spelt wrong). It generates movement which increases power.

  • Whoever questions the 5th dan's patterns (in the videos) who are 2 or more ranks below, they might aswell question The Founder. Even though the interwebs is full of trolling/flaming/distgusting people, trulshotvedt is proving free resources for all those who are loyal to Taekwondo ITF and perhaps even other martial arts/general public, and to spread it even further to corners of the world. Keep up the training.

  • .a friend of mine is 7 dan in ITF, but he does not like to advertise on you-tube..

  • @Marvel952

    And how is this relevant at all to the video?

  • @YellowMagi

    SORRY!

  • @Marvel952 Why not?

  • Just a question. Are they 2 differents styles of patterns or i'm wrong? Look the video reponses or just search "Tara-Jade Pattern Yul - Gok". It's really differents compare to the normal video.

  • is this the blue belt form ?

  • i need to catch up o n my forms since i switched to a different dojo and this is perfect to help me with that

  • right, i think ive got it. now i just need to memorise the korean theory. boooo :-(. but im liking the way this guy does it. clear and easy to follow :-).

  • please take off your watch

  • Suska has the cleanest most powerful ITF patterns overall on the Tube. Look up the videos from his training seminars. Serious kick control. Thanks for posting these videos . Great help in improving my techniques.

  • ITF sucks dick, WTF is the way

  • @JimmyMcCbob This statement is exactly why I'm so glad I train with ITF Taekwon-Do. It seems that you don't understand the tenants of Taekwon-Do and their meaning:

    Courtesy - Maintaining good manners and appropriate etiquette at all times.

    Integrity - Knowing right from wrong, and to have a guilty conscience when Knowingly doing wrong

    Perseverance - To try, try and try again until a satisfactory outcome results.

    Self Control - At all times to have control over ones thoughts and actions.

  • @coccos2 u missed out indominable spirit man, but i like wtf because of the violence, sure itf is more a higher level of mentallity training and a lesser phase in the physical side, but i like the fighting, sometimes mental and physical are joined yeah but anyway.. ITF SUCKS FUCKING KOCK

  • @JimmyMcCbob every moron can have black belt in WTF, it´s too easy..In ITF it´s harder and it´s longer way..ITF is the way of life + martail art + sport...WTF is just sport..and fighting only with hands?? what the fuck??-yes, WTF :)

  • @Chupakabrafleumch sorry I mean with legs..my mistake :)

  • @Chupakabrafleumch who gives a fuck about belts ,they dont mean shit, its about the bastard tennents, if there were 2 students who both followed the tennents and didnt boast or look down on people and one went to itf the other wtf, the wtf would come out the one with the most fighting experience because of how much of it they do, also with normal instructors who instructed the forms properly, itf = patterns n excersize, wtf = sparring n excersize right??,

  • @JimmyMcCbob

    I am training at an ITF club, and we are sparring nearly every time.

  • @YellowMagi YOU LIE

  • @ilikenirvana2

    You are welcome to join a training and see for yourself.

  • @JimmyMcCbob

    hahahaha yeeees! WTF is brilliant take-off of traditional taekwondo... Do your funny leg fencing, we will fight unlike you...

  • @JimmyMcCbob Let me guess. You are a young person who has only practised WTF, with no overall perspective. Close?

  • tottally differant the way i learned it

  • The peple who hate on this guy do they know he's world champion and that's why these vids were made but somehow everyone else's instructor seems to be better

  • I'am an ITF student an this guy has really helped me with his vid

  • His stances are goog but that is about it. His fingers are open during his knife hand guarding block and he turns his body too soon on each movement thus losing power. He doesnt fully extend his leg at the start of the bending ready stance, it just looks wrong.

  • not do bad but he seems slow on his movments my instructors 2nd dan an hes alot better and clearer balance is good though

  • @unitphenix 1st this form is intended to have some slow tension movements. 2nd he's doing this form as a teaching tool so it should be slow to learn from, 3rd it's done ITF style with its bouncy sine wave method. TKD is very diverse in its forms and how they are performed organization to organization.

  • @Ulitmatley :TKD black belt grading is a nice 4 ish hours long what I have been told by my instructor, I am lucky I get to run round a nice large field for part of it

    when I take my black belt grading next year should be good fun >_< but you have to remeber there is no rush to take the grading if you dont feel ready it.

  • Comment removed

  • He has alot of power in his moves. i'm a 1st kup and i'm grading for my black belt soon but i know i half to practice alot because my instructor made it sound like a bitch.

  • nice dancing im a black belt in tkd have a look at my vids and u c me

  • suska rocks

  • thank you, sir, for your accurate rendition of this pattern. Without these demonstrations it would be harder for me to learn

  • Although his performance is great, it's quite disturbing that he does not seem to care about the watch which is still around his arm.

  • to be fair people this man is a 5th dan,he's won a load international medels for patterns and sparring,so when all you haters have done this or have done better thats when you can criticize this

  • @antmpg My master is a 7th Degree :o but even fifth degree must take for ever

  • @pokey9099 yeah mines a 7th dan as well and hes like 50 something so it takes ages to get this level

  • @antmpg Mines I would say around 37? but definantly takes a long time

  • Comment removed

  • @antmpg denne videoen er god for folk som trener taekwondo.

  • great snap, sidekick is wicked, but very bouncy and not leveled. a 5th dan? hmm...my instructor is a 4th dan and much better. =]

  • @TheEpicBingHater lol... meaby he should enter european or world chanpionships in patterns ?

  • @TheEpicBingHater Sine Wave maybe?

  • his pattern are crap

  • @BILLYTHEKID250  how would you know ? r u the head ninja on your block....

  • amazing

  • i am so nervous and dont know if i am getting it but see how on saturday i am getting a grading for my blue belt but should be a red tag because i missed a grading so anyway i think yul gok is hard so i really want to pass guys give me youre suppport please i really need it its at our ladys high school at 11.30 finishes i dont know what time he said i cant do it because im crap but ill try so suppourt guys try and reply back to this before saturday so will subscribe if a memorise it choorie

  • My speakers are off, but I swear I can hear his breathing still 0.0

  • Very nice balance, agility and sinus.

    I'm on green now, and will get my stripe the 9th, I can't wait!

    I'm having Won Hyo tul now, and I'm going to learn Yul Gok next... Can't wait, I'm in love with patterns.;)

  • @LOidos2000 Same here :o...

  • Im on my fourth dan but im nowhere near this dude :/

  • to me still best performer on youtube of Orthodox TaeKwonDO Tills (forms).

    opinion of: - 8-th gyp ITF  -1-st DAN WTF

  • this guy is amazing

  • awesome thats my pattern i love how he does the x-stance ( i think that is how its called)

  • i just did this pattern a few days ago and got my green belt (I was a beginer green belt)

  • at my dojang we don't use sine wave..makes the form look sloppy, we focus on good, low stances and perfection of the hyeung, also the kicks are supposed to be belt level or higher, and he should add more power into the strikes...then again our style is Jhoon Rhee with the ITF forms..soo idk, i'm just saying I've seen better forms from 5th gyeup students at tournaments.

  • im having this for my grading up to the blue belt.. wish me luck!

  • @dragzz1 same for me! goodluck anyways

  • @dragzz1 How did it go?

  • @dragzz1 GOOD LUCK even though I'm 2 months late lol

  • I have to say that, also the kicks look higher also because of camera angle, but for me if you look closely at the second kick, when his back is facing the camera, you get a get look at the height of the arm that punches with the kick, which to me looks like the right height if the kick was to be bang on with the shoulder height.

  • @OxYcOd3nB. The kicks are not intended to be aimed at the middle zone or 'mid section'. They are meant to be a 'middle height' defined as being at shoulder height. A middle kick may be to the face, body or groin of the attacker, who could be standing, sitting or of a differing height to you the attacker. Heights are defined like this so the patterns are the same for everyone, ie each technique is measured to the body proportions of the individual practitioner.

  • @TOTTO44. it's an outer forearm high side block "bakat palmok nopunde yop makgi" followed by a reverse middle punch "bandae kaunde jirugi" this is then repeated as you move forward.

  • What's the move after the second vertical finger tip thrust?

  • @God1666

    thanks alot

  • I'm not here to critisize or anything. I'm only asking ok?

    Isn't he supposed to do the do the Yop-Chagui to the mid zone? I mean, sure it looks very cool doing it that high, but the max effectiveness of that kick is at the mid zone forming a paralel with the floor.

  • @OxYcOd0n3 I think your right kid. I would consider middle section, or "middle height" kick anywhere between your belt and solarplexes (right in the gut). A mid-section punch or block would be higher, Solorplexes to shoulder height maybe and a fingertip thrust to the neck, in my opinion. Seems logical places to strike given the different techniques and the "middleness". Feels right, you know?

  • hey guys, im not a TKD practitioner so im pretty much retarded in terms of TKD, so could anyone tell me why he rises and then lowers himself in every move, any good reply would be appreciated, any negative comment would mean that you didnt read or understand my first statement.

  • @Archfiend1900 It does that to increase the power of the punch/kick/hit by adding mass. It's simple physics.

  • @Archfiend1900 It's something called sign-wave which we use to create power going forward and rythem in our techniques. The rolling of the knee, which you can see in some of the techniques is focused on more when you reach black belt standard, but again that is to add power to the technique.

  • Can anyone spot the mistake that he makes and therefore the reason he does not end the form where he began? TaekwonDo points for anyone that gives the correct answer.

  • i see it butr he is not that far off

  • he's a good shoulders width out and thats far enough to fail any promotion to 5th degree. Good thing he's only demonstarting, huh? ;)

  • He doesn't move his fight foot to his left properly before he does the second bending leg ready stance-side kick. So he ends up to far right when he would have been more to the left if done correctly.

  • This looks as if he ws dancing. His Yop Chagi is very slow, but well, also very powerful and very exact.

  • Hey, peoples, how try to blame Mr. Suska, STOP IT!

    He is a 5th Dan! And you can't teach him! Except if you are the 6th Dan in ITF!

  • @Kanadez77 Lol my trainer for Taekwondo is 6th Dan in ITF :P

  • @Kanadez77

    well you're right he performs perfect

    every sabum nim performs on his own way but the movements are the same but speed is different for example.

    i like this performance

    -Xpaysoklsa red belt taekwondo

  • @Kanadez77

    Can I 'blame' your grammar? xD

  • @Kanadez77 Hey hey hey, It doesn't matter what Dan you are, did you pay no attention in school, I know my sensei is a 5th dan, and he always says "It doesn't matter the rank, You can benefit by listening to even the simplest of beings." and it is the truth, people make mistakes, it is ok.

  • @Kanadez77 

    You're right :)

    Now he's sixth Dan :)

  • @baz0k

    Wah! He deserve 6th DAN. I'm using his pattern as a reference in my TKD classes. Thanks.

  • @Kanadez77 why ITF ??? GTF also can maa -_-"'

  • i just started to learn this one its awesome

  • same here :) !! Good Luck!!

  • Hooking blocks are natural mouvement, those are slightly too quick.

    Side piercing kicks too high again...

    No sine wave at a few places that should have. Pretty recurring problem in most of his patterns.

  • @foreshadow20- some factions of ITF don't use the sine wave.

  • Factions of ITF (-V, -C, -K) with no sine waves are very rare.

    The closest federation to ITF where sine wave is an option is Ch'ang Hon Taekwondo Federation.

    Suska is in ITF-V. He should have sine waves on all movements with few exceptions.

  • United States Taekwon-Do Won also doesn't use Sine Wave.

  • Excellent pattern sir, just passed my blue stripe belt so yul gok here I come!!

  • all tykwondos are diffrent but i see no stances but great power

  • goin 4 red today!!

  • hey mario - all the best for your black belt. i find it so nerve-wracking, performing in front of people. hope it goes well for you; i just passed my grading and now a blue tag

  • I really like the movements of this pattern - I still need to learn it as I've just been promoted. Can't wait to start Yul-Gok

  • I did this at a tournament not too long ago.

    Now I have to do it for my blue-belt-test dec 3rd. This vid helped alot!

  • jepp ztarius :D

  • wow he is pure class!! such sharp movements.

  • im no way as gd as im

  • nice i hope this help me to i m blue now but need remeber this one and i want to be black

  • im blue too grading 2DAY!!

  • Luxury! 5 Dan this is a boss, I used to watch him, as I have to pay yul gok in December. Hopefully as I get out as good as him.

  • im learning this pattern now. not that hard.

    when i started learning chon-ji, i thought that was soo cool. then, when i started learning dan-gun, i thought chon-ji was bullshit and dan-gun ruled, and so on :P

    anyone that is from NTN here? (national taekwon-do Norway)

  • anyone can learn a pattern, but very few people actually master any of them

  • Siden du spurde om NTN så regner jeg vel med at du er norsk? Jeg trente før i ITF (International Taekwon-do Federation) mens nå i WTF (World Taekwon-do Federation). Jeg kom helt til Yul-Gok før jeg måtte slutte. Og jeg må jo si jeg kjenner meg igjen i det du sier. At først virka det første mønsteret du lærte deg helt konge, men så ble det kjedelig når du kom til et nytt et. Er vel egentlig ganske standard det..

  • yeah, yol-gok isn't that cool, wait for chong-moo :D

    where do you train?

  • what style is that?

  • READ THE DESCRIPTION

    ITF TAEKWONDO

  • hes like, really bouncy, but yeah its a good vid though, like real helpful (Y)

  • it's ITF taekwondo, every practitioner of ITF taekwondo learns to do patterns this way. what kind of taekwondo have you learned?

  • Do you notice how he positions himself on the court lines on the floor so he can measure the pattern out exactly. Means everything when competing at the World Championships.

  • at our TKD we do three punches in the beginning...hmmmm i wonder why there are differences..?

  • The first move is only a measure on shoulder line, the other two are punches performed in fast motion.

  • at are tkd we are not allowed to have a watch on

  • @CalebRHindt *at our

  • @CalebRHindt and its probably your instructor that enforces it too. Do as I say, not as I do lol

  • @CalebRHindt You can if your teaching i think

  • why does he do the little bouncy thingy before each of his techniques o.O?

  • thats called the sine wave.

  • as well as sine wave its the backward motion at the beginning of each technique. 'All movements must begin with a backward motion with very few exceptions. However, once the movement is in motion it should not be stopped before reaching the target.' - Training Secret Seven.

  • sine wave helps get more power to the techniques
