JAB 0 Posted December 18, 2008 What Rikishii has the best Shiko? Is there anyone who can get the leg just about vertical? I am looking for a good pic of one, does not matter who the Ozumo is. Thanks Jake Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rhino 0 Posted December 18, 2008 Try Katayama. Now sadly in Makushita, so his incredible shiko can only be seen 7 times per basho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JAB 0 Posted December 19, 2008 Thank you. WOW! Impressive! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Datchayama 0 Posted December 19, 2008 Yeah I really wish Katayama could've stayed up in the ranks longer. Gets up there, then constant make-koshi's just not good. Always an impressive sight to see. Wondered what happened with him...whether it was more a strength issue, (flexable but not forceful enough to accomplish much in bouts) or just plain not really being ambitious in working on general skills? Really hoped he hadn't make-,make-,make'd so much after getting to upper ranks. Crowd always likes his shiko... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Naganoyama 5,373 Posted December 19, 2008 Hokazan of Miyagino Beya isn't bad either - see the second picture down in Fay's Day 9 pictures from Kyushu here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fay 1,676 Posted December 19, 2008 Also Tanemaru from Minezaki Beya isn't bad at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
