Hi, i'm jsus..and i'm new..mi first topic is:

My opinion is that the best shotokan katas for present in championships are:

Shitei (obligatory): jion, kankudai

Tokui: kanku sho, gankaku, unsu, gojushisho sho.

What do you think¿?

I agree.

I like Kankudai and Unsu in particular. Welcome to the forums.

Well, you've listed a fair number of different katas so I guess somewhere amongst the bunch is a winner.

Seriously, there is no pat answer to which is the best kata for competition. It will depend on the rank and abilities of the practitioner. If you are athletic Gamkaku looks fantastic to the judges. At my age I look for a routine lacking spins and high kicks. I'll be performing Gojushio Dai tomorrow. I think the JKA calls this one Sho.
