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:
“In short, no association or alliance can be happy or stable without me. People can’t long tolerate a ruler, nor can a master his servant, a maid her mistress, a teacher his pupil, a friend his friend nor a wife her husband, a landlord his tenant, a soldier his comrade nor a party-goer his companion, unless they sometimes have illusions about each other, make use of flattery, and have the sense to turn a blind eye and sweeten life for themselves with the honey of folly.”
—Desiderius Erasmus (c. 1466–1536)
