@BelloBudo007 the competition back then isn't 1/4 as tough as it is now. Hence Hoang Ngan Nguyen had to forfeit the final last year in Serbia because she sustained a similar injury in the semifinals. I agree reputation is a big factor, but looking at the other performers here.....even with her injury, none of them were as good as her.
@madgecic - Thanks for the information about her injury. Having seen her Unsu previously I kind of wondered 'what's up' this time around. To be frank I think she was kind of lucky to pull of a win with that particular Unsu & no doubt she feels the same way. Perhaps it an indication of how far reputation will take you. But hats off to her for pulling off a pretty decent kata with dynamic turns and a jump that would have really tested her knee.
@andykarate her stances wer off because she had a torn ligament in her left knee at the time. amazing she was able to win the world championships with an injury like that!
La Colaiacomo è davvero è una grande, anche se avrei voluto vedere interamente l'Anan (ma perchè ogni anno cambia il modo di scrivere il nome di questo kata?!)!
On the Gi point again, fair enough if you like it that way, I just think it looks better and smarter to have a shorter Gi top, mid thigh maybe. Just opinion! :D

La Colaiacomo?!?!?!?
Ma è un pò vecchiotto sto video o sbaglio?
E' interessante vedere l'evoluzione che c'è stata paragonata ai kata oggi... però è molto bello!!! Complimenti alle atlete di questo video
