Straight Trunk Style (CHOKKAN)

By using available branches, the back branch is placed between the second and third branch.
   
Branches are upright, which signifies a young tree.
   
Branches more horizontal with tips pointing slightly upwards.
   
Using more branches that are slightly slanted downward gives the tree a tall and narrow look.
   
Branches forced downwards, exposing large trunk.
