Suparinpei by Takashi Katada

[bejakabyle]

yeah katada deserved it even the another one too was good ,but katada ,he is more fashioned and powerful

[voidmain1975]

Awesome performances, great stamina of both, thrilling!

I do WTF style taekwondo and this kata looks like 10 times more advanced than the kata I'm learning right now.

[BxMafioso718]

I can clearly see the two different styles of Suparinpei in this video. Awesome performance by both karatekas I enjoy watching. Thank you. Beautiful !!!!!!

[kyuubifox66]

I practice Goju-Ryu :) This is my favourite kata even though i havent learnt it yet. Long live every karate style and good luck to the ones who want to follow the way of the empty handed warrior :) Ossss

[kirasam4]

kata es muy superior tecnicamente y tambien en kime, pero creo que se comio 2 pasos. Eso no hace que sea eliminado?

[Newwwbie1]

He has got great speed and remains strong stance except at 2:56, tiny inballance, but the heck with it. NICE KATA!

[jack2roman]

Sorry guys, I rated the video one stra by mistake.I actually wanted to press the 5 star. Would love to meet this two great karateka in a tournament!

Katada specializes in Shito-Ryu but my sensei once told me that he performs kata like Gojyu (a bit exaggerated for Shito-Ryu katas). But, he still is a great performer.

shito ryu....

[cumanagoto]

Nice!

[SeanSymphony]

My fave kata to perform :)

[KargBob]

Textbook hip vibration and rotation, something so many karatekas never develop at 2:40. Fantastic performance.

[ccthedragon]

Great kata performance . hip movement and timing of the reverse strokes of first gyu are very powerfull and worth imitating. arigato. oss.

Man, Takashi is so humble. This is a true karateca. Way to go, Takashi!

[nateco100]

Totally perfect. Wonderful performance of the first competitor.

My criteria, when judging, is to judge whether or not the "block" did what it was intended to do; slip blocks and other open handed blocking techniques are often intended to deflect, perhaps to feed into another technique. I do the Goju version of this kata, but liked the Shito version as well. I pretty much like all kata when they are well done; the style or school doesn't matter to me. It's all traditional karate.

[NewEnglandBudo]

You can note the difference in the enbusen (pattern) of the SHito Ryu vs. Goju version, especially after the 4 shiko dachi- gedan uke in the middle.

[Sharz03]

Trying not to sound naive but... which guy is which and which of the two suparinpei is the shitei version? they're both so different!

ta

:)

p.s these guys ARE awesome

[tanzadeh]

Aka is Katada (Shitokai) and Ao is Furukawa (Gojuryu). and suparinpei is not shitei kata.

[lukkiop]

you mean tetsuya furukawa?

[NewEnglandBudo]

I have yet to see the enbusen practiced by Katada.

[Fermetica]

Incredible kata from Takeshi! I cant stoo to see this video.

Hi from Ushuaia, i practice the Seito Shito Ryu.
