Can someone who does Kudo tell us about the gi? I imagine it is thicker than a standard FC karate gi to withstand some of the takedowns and newaza, but it doesn't look like a judo gi. Thanks. Osu

Osu!

As I understand it, SmoothSake, it is almost exactly a single weave Judo Gi. (Made from a single piece of cloth.) Quite ideal for that type of training.

(Debating what to take to the seminars this weekend. Might take a Dogi selection. )

Osu!

Yes, simular cloth to karate dogi but made with a judo/jujutsu single cloth design to prevent rips/tears when grappling, also the underarms are wider.

I dont know. Not that I know of.
Is it highlights of the Hokutoki?
Usually they just show from the semi finals onward.
So if it is from the recent Hokutoki in Nov then I may be on there.
Oh how embarrassing! That was just my worst fight ever!!!!
I'm the guy throwing everything from a mile too far away and missing!

Kudoist,

Its from the November All Japan event, if its you, your speaking fluent japanese on interview?

Osu!

[kakatootoshi]

The Hokutoki this year will be shown on the Gaora channel after the Christmas. If the DVD was directly recorded from TV, it should be from last year or before.

No thats not me then.
I didnt do anything that warranted getting　interviewed.
Its probably Kononenko senpai, winner of my division.

Oh ok, a case of mistaken identity ;-)

Osu!
