i see what you mean.
the left leg looks stiff especially, doesnt look too good.
and a little forward motion would have made the replay more fluid.
thanks for the critique.
BUT
You wont find a fluid and relaxed replay at any point of time in this thread though.
I think there are enough toribashers who make those.
I'm working on finding my own style, which i want to be mostly on hold-all base and a lot of stiff elbows and knees.
Still ive got a lot to learn. especially when it comes to gaining speed.
here is a more exaggerated replay which could give you a hint to which direction i wanna go.
