@exosphere1 I don't think he's doing that on purpose. If you see others vids of him, his fingers are like bent. He probably broke his fingers while training on breaking boards or something. And what you see now is the results.
Probably a habit from some other bunkai he knows. I doubt very much from fingers breaking although I am sure he may have broke a few bones in his training.
Master Shinjo, I believe broke his fingers, as a young man pulling in fishing nets.
No, if you look at his photos from his youth, they aren’t broken or deformed in any way.
Sir
Thank you for posting this video. Osu
