I competed a lot with Taegeuk 7. But I have done Taegeuk 3 and 4 in the past, and Pyung ahn ee dan (in TSD).

But I don't have a fav in ITF TKD yet. I do like Chun Moo so far, though.

I enjoy Chung moo, as well. I also like Hwa-Rang and Toi-Gye.

the best i did in competition was with enpi, though i could probably do kanku dai better. next time i enter a competition i'll probably do kanku or jitte.

"Gently return to the simple physical sensation of the breath. Then do it again, and again, and again. Somewhere in this process, you will come face-to-face with the sudden and shocking realization that you are completely crazy. Your mind is a shrieking, gibbering madhouse on wheels." - ven. henepola gunaratana

Chinto was the first Kata I really felt that I made "mine". I placed first in '96 USANKF Nationals with Chinto. I've had good success with Unsu in tournaments, as well. I have only tied once and used Superenpei to win with. I haven't competed in kata competition since '97.

i do like chung mu for ITF TKD (actually, its probably the only one i can remember start to finish now)

for WTF i like Taeguek 6 or 8, im really not a fan of 7.

for shotokan, i really like heain yon dan (thats as far as i am at the moment anyway), but if i knew them i also like empi and teki sho dan.

Now you use head for something other than target.

i rekon its a funky kata. and for competition it is short and quick and there fore less opportunitys to forget/make mistakes.

and if done properly, can look really good. also, for competition, you will always be facing the judges.

I'm entering a tournament next weekend and I've chosen Jion, Sochin and Kanku Dai as my 3 best tournament katas. Apart from a small tournament I competed in back in May, the last tournament I entered was over 3 years ago!
