Seems like an excellent development giving EVERYONE the chance to compete

Interesting. I always found it odd that depending on which Karate you did you'd have to do a specific kata for that style.

Although the Shitei kata are now gone, is there still a list of kata to choose from or can you do anything under the sun? What's stopping someone from taking a TKD form or a Wushu form and performing it in a Karate way?

I'm unfamiliar with Karate tournaments so if you can perform anything you like, do you get a score for difficulty alongside performance?

That's one of the main things that kept Kempo out of WKF tournaments. I'm happy for this. This is good

I've a few words to say about this...awesome, finally, alright, fantastic, great, super, wonderful, thank you, *sighs*, and it's about time.

Thanks for the article and the anticipated information.

YAHOO!!
