- Tsukensunakake is performed with an eku (oar). The eku gives the opportunity to skoop sand in the direction of the opponent. It's on of the more difficult kata in the system of Ryu Kyu Kobujutsu of Inoue Motokatsu.
This video is free to use. I'm always open for comment.
Nicely done. Very similar to the way i perform it. Almost move for move. Keep up the good work.
I have some questions. I recently purchased Jesse Enkamp's (The Karate Nerd) video class of this kata. And he does the same pattern of this kata as you. How every other videos i see of this kata, has some big differences. They add have extra strips and clears, some extra figure 8s with the eku, the circular blocks/strips are done on 45 degree angles, etc. From what i can tell, they all appear to be Ryu Kyu Kobudo practioners. There are at least 2 different versions of Akamine Hiroshi running the kata. Now it might just be the difference of one being Chikin Sunakake and the other is Tsuken Sunakake. But i was under the under the impression that Chikin and Tsuken was possibly just 2 different pronunciation for the same island that the kata came from. I've even seen that it was the name of the person who created the kata, Chikin Uēkata, and sometimes they spell his name Tsuken Uēkata. So my first question, are they 2 different katas within the same system? Or is it the same kata, and changes were made? If so, who changed it and why were the changes made? I'm not totally against changes being made to kata, i'm just curious. Thanks for your time.
Hello Nathan, thanks for your reply. I'll try to answer as clear as possible, while I'm not a native Engilis speaker. The kata Tsukensunakake no kon is the mainland Japanese version and name. The form I performed is how I've learned it from my teacher, who learned from Inoue Motokatsu. The form is the same, but in a lot of details it differs from other styles like Matayoshi kobudo and manu more. It'ld be a lot of writing to discuss all the differences. So the form and the names differs per style. The word 'sunakake' means to shovel of scoop sand. So overall it's the same kata. Some styles have two different kata with this oar. In the link below, you can see Inoue Kisho (the son of Motokatsu) performing this kata as well. You'll see it's more like mine, or, better, I try to perform more like this. I hope you have answers.

@@MaartenVanBloois Thank you so much! That is exactly the type of answer I was looking for. And that was a really cool video.
Hi note that one style is jutsu the other is do so there is a slight difference in emphasis as well as being from different martial traditions as Martin’s says but as far as I know they were both compiled by Shinken Taira and passed onto his students the main two being Akamine and Inoue Okinawa and Japan respectively and they changed their organizations to jutsu and Do if I recall in the 1980’s. just look at Shuri karate and those from that origin in Japan.
Who made your Eku? Looks good
Some decades ago I bought this one in a shop. It was a long model of 1,80m. I shortened it for balance and to fit my length. It's a heavy eku I use for the kumite also.
zie ik het goed,, is die Eiku krom?
Ja, deze heeft een lichte kromming.
mooie kata,, hou wel van de geknielde technieken met veel harai waza
