Parent: Daien no Sou

Furo vs Ro

Differences between this and the furo version will be bolded. If there’s a difference between the two that isn’t bolded, it’s probably unintentional

Special characteristics for Ro

When to take the dai

• Opening sequence
  • Enter with kensui, sitting diagonal (low) at imai, then scoot up. Kamae etc, placing hishaku out.
  • Turn to mizusashi shomen
  • Move dai combo to himado-mae, then pick up bon and bring to imai
• Closing sequence
  • (After wiping chashaku and placing on top of bowl)
  • Sitting at imai, move chawan onto dai
  • Pick up bon, turn to mizuzashi shomen, place bon
  • Return dai combo to bon
• Haiken
  • Turn with futaoki to mizusashi shomen, place under the hishaku as usual.
  • Move dai combo to himado-mae
  • Place shifuku onto bon (L takes both together from the bottom, rehold side-side, then R places down onto the bon both together from the bottom, not yet separating them)

Other things

• Chasen goes to the shikaden ro position by the hishaku
• Haiken is done completely outside of the ro
