Here are several major concerns: (1) The participant performed a traditional Shotokan karate -KATA which is a standardized sequence of karate movements. The some parameters from CoM and knee were analyzed. Those parameters are critical factors to KATA? It needs solid evidence-based support.We would like to thank the Reviewer for his/her precious suggestions.We thoroughly reconsidered the main passages of the Discussion and Introduction, as marked in the text. As suggested, we added in the Introduction a paragraph containing information about the critical factors for Kata performance, that on a biomechanical perspective include also those mentioned by the Reviewer. These data are supported by previously published studies.R1.2 (2) Those parameters were analyzed from which karate movement of KATA? which movement phase?We agree that the data extraction flow was not clear and we thank the Reviewer for the chance to clarify this point. We now added details about the computation of kinematic data in the Procedures section. Moreover, we added in the Discussion some features regarding relevant outcomes for knee kinematics in particular step of the sequence. R1.3 (3) Kumite and Kata are two types of karate. The scoring requirements and critical factors are very different between Kumite and Kata. However, some literatures on Kumite also cited in the discussion.The point raised by the Reviewer is correct. However, the studies we included addressed both kata and kumite athletes (references #2 and #5) in order to highlight the relevance of dynamic postural control during the execution karate techniques. In such papers, the importance of the achievement of a adequate technique (also in terms of biomechanical parameters) is addressed, and its role in the obtainment of a high-level performance is discussed.
