The Oitekaze stable (追手風部屋, Oitekaze-beya?) is a stable of sumo wrestlers, part of the Tatsunami ichimon or group of stables. It was established in its modern incarnation on 1 October 1998 by former maegashira Daishoyama, who is the stable's current head coach. He had married the daughter of the previous Oitekaze Oyakata and branched off from Tomozuna stable, taking some wrestlers with him including future sekitori Hayateumi and Daishodai. As of December 2007, it had 17 wrestlers.

Famous quotes containing the word stable:
“If, then, this civilization is to be saved, if it is not to be submerged by centuries of barbarism, but to secure the treasures of its inheritance on new and more stable foundations, there is indeed need for those now living fully to realize how far the decay has already progressed.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
