Double Wing Formation
    Keywords: Opening

A double wing formation is a combination of a basic corner sructure with extensions along the two adjacent sides. A double wing formation is a good thing to have: it is not difficult to understand that in such a position, your stones are working together effectively.

[Diagram]
Diag.: Double wing formation

In this example, Black has a double wing formation based on a keima shimari in the upper left corner. Doesn't it look a bit like a bird stretching its wings along the top and the left side?
