SUMO’S WINNING WAYS – KATASUKASHI, UNDER SHOULDER SWING DOWN

There are no weight classes in sumo. For a smaller combatant to defeat a much bigger opponent, he must attack with a very effective weapon. That weapon is the Katasukashi or Under shoulder swing down. Former Makuuchi wrestler and one of the most well-known experts in winning techniques, Coach Kabutoyama, teaches Hiro how to properly execute the Katasukashi.
