There are variations of Men, hiki-Men,
Kote-Men, kaeshi-Men…, and so many nice technique or ippons exist.
But as for “*debana-Men”, I think the ippon
in the following video is the most destructive and beautiful in my
recollection. It was 2015 all Japan police individual championship 4th
round. Red player is Kawaguchi (Kanagawa), and white player is Tuchitani
(Osaka).
As start, white player stubbed tsuki, red
player twisted his body a bit and dodged.
At 0:46, white player stroked fast and
steady Men. It was very so called “Ki Ken Tai icchi (means matching spirit and
sword and body)”, thus if without guard, it instantly became ippon.
White player is very aggressive player with
swift body and footwork. I think this day is for his day; he might be best
condition.
At 2:46, red player tried hiki-Do. It was
unguarded and not perfectly, but touched white player’s Do for sure.
Before 4:33, white player made a little
pressure to red player. Red player reacted and went forward into white player’s
territory. Next moment, white player didn't miss the opportunity and stroked debana-Men
with supple snap.
I have never seen such a fabulous debana-Men
before. How do you think?
* debana-Men is a technique hitting Men faster
when opponent player trys to move forward and do something.
