Me in ITF Taekwon-do sparring, Helmi Cup 09

[Easyandy100]

You might be more suited to full contact because you cover your head well and keep your chin down. Semi contact too much of a game.

Even though i am a WTF taekwondo practioneer i think ITF is more effective than WTF is because most WTF sparring its all kick they dont teach you how to punch as much as itf although i think that the spar is a bit slow i think it is still pretty decent

[XyekiniX]

so predictable

they were only using their right legs

[janster7]

Very good! But you do need to improve your speed and bouncing. Because you dont come far in tkd itf without speed. You got good strength and technique though

[Metactyl]

boring

[masamune702]

Cool vid! The red belt you were sparring sucks lol. Everytime he does a roundkick he dips his head and he only kicks to your body lol.

[Kyle17880000]

im a green belt and i too got a bit frustrated at ammount of missed opportunities. it wasnt bad, just not great.

my pointers: dont be afriad to get hit. i see you blocked alot of his kicks with two hands. i also noticed that your opponent was just throwing basics kicks repeatedly. dont hesitate to follow through with a swift jab/back fist and the overwhelm him until he leaves the mat (warnings, the pts!)

other then that, congrats on your victory! (next time wipe the floor with him)

taekwon!

being a 2nd dan, i watch this match and become very frustrated with all the missed opportunities

But ive been training for 8 years

[oekeleroe]

what is this match borring

[janster7]

More bouncing on your feets, and you could come really far...:)

[hjimenez90]

@janster7 Very true bouncing on your feet makes you switch fast and do more step ins and slide ins more accurate.

[janster7]

So true. You can see almost every pro figheter in for example UFC bounces on their feet, so they can move faster. So does Kickboxers and boxers aswell:) Do you do any material arts? I do Taekwondo ITF myself,been practicing for 4 years, so good material art!

[vnct]

hyvä matsi :D miten päätty?

[Bussipysakillah]

Kiitos :) Mä (vihreä vyö) voitin!

[vnct]

pisteet? : D muistakko enää

[Bussipysakillah]

Mulla oli tosta toinenkin video (sain sen vasta myöhemmin käsiini, siksi se ei ole tässä). Siinä kolme tuomaria nostaa sinisen lipun ja neljättä ei näy.

[nadaraan]

I am a green belt to but I have practice

7 ears karate-do and now i moved to TKD ITF.

Who are you in this movie ?

[Bussipysakillah]

I'm the one who starts on the left.

[h0rangi]

now some slow motions! haha very good

i expected much less from low ranks but..that wasnt bad

you have a good defense, along with that work on your counter fighting game! that guys attacks were so obvious, an experienced fighter would have destroyed him in 20 seconds

[PyroEDunit]

Nice video. I'm a Green Belt too and i love to spar. You have good defence and control nut i did notice that your not bouncing as much on your feet. I find bouncing is useful because it means i can react quicker when my opponent attacks or when i want to attack.

[Bussipysakillah]

Yeah, I know, my movement needs to improve a lot. If there's anything good about it, it seems at least that I don't get tired that qickly. But still...

[janster7]

Agree!

[koirrah]

And the judge in the ring is of course Ismo Mäkinen 2 times world champion in ITF taekwondo :)

[Bussipysakillah]

Actually 3 times :) So that was very exciting aswell.

[janster7]

lol i`m only 14 years old but i have a lot of experience in sparring:) And i see you are a greenbelt. You keep your guard up, you have control and power. Really nice man!

[janster7]

Really nice Tkd Itf sparringmatch.

I dont want to be the bad guy here, but if it was up to me.

1st round= The guy in red gloves.

2st round= You, in Blue Gloves.

Then i would have given sudden death.

i am a blue belt in tkd itf.

Really nice fight though....:)

[Bussipysakillah]

Thanks! I'm sure it was close, but I can't really remember. And yes, I probably did lose the first round.
