Akinomaki 32,184 Posted March 4 Many thanks or the good wishes. I skipped my daily dose of sumo yesterday, but I'll gambarize to have it continue well into the next life cycle. Double kanreki is not that easy to achieve, but in Japan the 120 age year old will likely be on the rise in the future - aiming for that is at least a nice goal. On 03/03/2022 at 08:08, Katooshu said: When's the kanreki dohyō-iri scheduled for? Preparations are under way, unfortunately I have no deshi for kuukido sumo yet and as hitori yokozuna in that non-sport, I think I'll do it alone in fresh air on my balcony, so it will be weather dependent. I'll post the video on my kuukido channel. Based on shiranui style of course. My Ichinojo kesho mawashi towel would allow just enough movement for a shiko stamp, but in kuukido sumo both feet have to always stay flat on the ground, else you lose, so the dohyo-iri style should be accordingly. You can fix it around your waist: On 06/04/2016 at 17:10, Akinomaki said: With a series of new baby-star ramen CMs by Ichinojo, also a campaign with it: this time a kesho-mawashi style towel can be won https://www.oyatsu.co.jp/campaign/ichinojo3/ apparently I missed at least one former campaign On 05/03/2015 at 20:16, Akinomaki said: Ichinojo got 2 new kesho mawashi from Oyatsu Co., for which he made a baby star ramen "dodekai (giant) ramen" CM recently. One like a baby star ramen CM, one like a kesho mawashi. He apparently likes the one with the "ba(b)y-chan" character: "a resemblance, maybe?" 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
