vs Jodan

Confound: Hasso is good for counter-Jodan. I second that. And it works like Katsugi-waza. Suprise suprise.

Never go for Gombe-Kamae..... You'll get a Jodan-do cut!

(I still wonder why you guys say changing Kamae midway is bad... since a Kamae is a response to another Kamae, in respond to certain situations... Say Kata #5, you change yor Kamae from Chudan to Seigan... And in Naginata, people just keep changing Kamae and sides... why not Kendo?)
