@@markopouloskendoChange it how? You mean make it like fencing? Well people can have saber fencing but with kendo wooden blades and the foot stance. Brilliant!!!!. 👍
@@GabrielNavarro-bo7stThe rules for scoring would need to be changed so that non kendoka spectators can understand what is going on. It would also result in the focus of kendo shifting from self improvement and discipline to winning. Finally control over the sport would shift from ZNKR (the All Japan Kendo Federation) to the Olympic Committee. These are the primary reason it isn’t one as the ZNKR doesn’t want to compromise the spirit of the budo for more international appeal or lose Japanese control over the direction the art is going in.
They are different organizations but both are part of the All United States Kendo Federation so they are legit. Not sure why there are two in the same area.
@@apothneisko idk the exact full story behind it, but there was a beef between 2 groups within SCKF, led them to split to SCKF and SCKO. Theres still beef going on especially between the big ego sensei's lol
No clue how the scoring works. At 1:53 you can see he blocks the opponent's sword with his arm before getting a point with a head strike, but in a sword fight he wouldn't have still had the hand to hold the sword with
If you want to be technical about it, white guy didn't commit to the strike (performing zanshin) so his strike is not strong or 'proper' enough to sever the red guy's hand. Red guy attacked, finished the strike, got the ippon.
I look at it like this and im no professional but from a game design aspect yes the guy got hit first in the arm and that could rate at a scale of 2 points (0 for spirit/technique 1 for time 1 for strike). However, with the spirited kiai and the head strike the red guy would score like 3 points. (0 for time 1 for spirit/tech 2 for head strike) It's weird but simply in a fight the guy who got cut in the head is doing way worse than the one armed samurai. Although, it would be cooler if the strike must be clean and the judges didn't give him that point. Like if he parried the first guy's strike I feel his point would make more sense.
It’s not a real sword fight. Even if it were, it would not have been a decapacitating blow. You have a (more likely shallow) cut on the non vital part on the right arm, which does not provide much force to wielding the katana other than guiding anyways. With the help of adrenaline it’s not hard to imagine the opponent still having the ability to make the following face cut.
White was going for a wrist strike, but red blocked with his sword and counterattacked. It's hard to see bc the tip of red's sword disappears due to the camera's framerate. Notice how white slides his sword down after the strike to try to keep red's sword down and prevent a counterattack because he knows the wrist strike didn't land, whereas for other successful wrist strikes in the video, the player pops their sword back up immediately.
Great video quality and editing. Thank you for sharing this!
Wonderfull, everything is just right.
Look at the atmosphere and the fun everyone is having, sportsmanship...
Cool sport. Kendo should be in the Olympics.
No. Just no.
@@JohnDoe-ou8jpWhy do you disagree? Most sports in the Olympics are lame.
@@GabrielNavarro-bo7st because in order to be in olympics they want to change the rules

What's the difference between SCKF and SCKO? I know that they're both in Southern California.
Great Kendo! It was so nice to watch.

@@apothneisko Cool. Thanks for the reply. 😎
