Day14 vs Hokutoriki (Kyusu-Basho 2009 Nov)

This is it!

This is sumo style which we want Baruto do!

Baruto grasped opponent belt and mad his head attached to opponent breast and made his body lower.

And finally ,"Hikitsuke"(=pulling opponent belt bilaterally) and "Yorikiri"

Lower body made inevitably his stepping forward movement stable.(="Suriashi")

Stepping should be "Suriashi"(=not like a walking ,like a skating on the ground).

And Yorikiri should be with "Koshi wo waru"(=waist down).

I felt Baruto tried to do so.

Of course,the starting position was still high but I was very happy Baruto tried to pursuit an ideal style of traditional sumo.
