JohnASE Posted November 6, 2009 Posted November 6, 2009 It's difficult for anyone here to give a definitive answer on this, even after viewing the video. Each tournament or each sanctioning organization could have different rules for judging kata or kumite. People can give general answers, but unless they're familiar with the rules of any given competition, it's hard to say who should win, especially if it's at all close.

white owl Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 Personally I find it hard to judge kata at tournaments. I am not familiar with all the different styles there is, so when I judge I look for at how will the do there kata, confidence and enthusiasm when the approach the judges, and sorry -the power. I do not like punches that are laid out there or hands open when punching and kicks that do not look like a kick. I was not able to view your video so I just let you know what I look for.
