Chadi, Always an amazing analysis... although I had to get a black in BJJ, I always felt (as far back as 30 years ago) that combining old school Judo with Kyokushin for the atemi waza was as complete as you could get.. then again, there is wrestling, boxing, and muay thai. the journey never ends OSU!

This Osoto Otoshi variation is a direct Jujutsu application. Came from Armor grappling where you could not get a reaping motion due to posture and weight of armor. Works well on larger people who are hard to reap 😎. Thank you for sharing 👏

[@TheThinkersBible]

Very interesting analysis. It's like other disciplines including sports -- practicing the fundamentals is the key to mastery and strong fundamentals make a strong champion. Even in non-martial arts sports like basketball -- free throws and lay-ups make the most points overall.

[@edmondlau511]

I have heard multiple NBA players say that Michael Jordan was a master of the fundamentals. It was a key factor in his success.

[@Yupppi]

The reason why the Japanese female judoka's direct tomoe nage works so well is I think because she drops down stopping all momentum and is strong enough to lift them off the ground. It catches them by surprise and they're resisting backwards thinking they can stop the throw, while they should be diving and spinning with momentum. If she tried the smooth movement taught for tomoe nage, they would all have the momentum to spin out. It's not a basic tomoe nage, it's heavily adapted version just like the spinning one. Which is why the first clip's male judoka did the spin, almost turned to the side to force the direction of the spin and shoulders dipping when the opponent tried to spin out of it. Reaction, not initially planned. The reason why professionals adapt the basic forms is not because they want to make it more complex or difficult or new, it's because they have to for one reason or another. They're not sensitive artists but professional athletes, their goal is to do the least amount of work to get the desired result so they adapt a technique to the needs. Like I don't think any of them was training and decided "you know what, this basic form of the technique is cool and works, but I want my own, I want to make it different and spend a lot of time practicing a different way". I swear they thought "this basic form faces challenges in all of my competitions, it's really hard to make it work because people do this and that to prevent it, I need to find a way to adjust it to prevent them from defending the score". It's similar to the osoto garis turning into harai goshis (or osoto guruma? although I rarely see both legs even touched), it's not the goal but adjustment to the opponent's reaction. Similar to ouchi - uchi mata - ouchi back and forth with many players. More to the judo's fundamental ideas of reacting and using your opponent's movement instead of being stuck to textbook technique. It seems like a lot of professional judokas find it odd how tightly people lock into details of techniques and try to define all the throws perfectly into a slot when they think more about the intention of starting a technique and finishing with the shoulders on the mat.

Martial Arts in general is far more complete today than it was back then. It's not weak today, just adapted to modern world. Safer training means you can train longer at a higher level.

[@josephbrewster1169]

I did a Tomoe Inage on instinct during a street fight as the guy tried to sweep/clothesline me but I knew that he had some training just by the way he moved so I slapped his hands away as he went vertical and I intentionally left him there. As in, I did not kick him onto his back. He landed on his head and broke his collar bone. My question is, do the Judo guys kick them out that hard because they know other Judo guys are gong to take advantage of someone doing it the way I did? If so, how would they take advantage?

[@josephbrewster1169]

With the double leg sweep video you showed us, it looked like the most important factor was that the instructor was lifting the victim off of his feet with a combination of the sweeping leg and the right hand on the shoulder and a little less on the famous Judo hip movement into torso twist. Is that intended or was this particular instructor just using his larger frame as a crutch?

[@ca1498]

I have been researching these throws and working on them for a while. I have found John Danaher's instructional videos for BJJ takedowns to be the clearest, and I have also seen a number of instructionals on competition variations that are commonly grouped under "osoto gari" but are obviously different throws or mixtures of throws. About the tomoe nage, he says that the most critical element for succeeding with it (besides kuzushi and breaking the opponent's posture) is getting uke's head more or less directly above yours. If he manages to stay back, there is no throw. With the yoko tomoe nage, you lay across and even spin a bit where your head gets almost to uke's foot. If uke is also bending over, there is very little distance to travel forward before he is directly above you, and you can lift him. With the front tomoe nage, you have to pull until uke's head travels the entire length of your torso, so it takes a lot more pulling. So the majority of tomoes are yoko, but there is a smaller group of masters who are successful with the front tomoe. Details that help with the pull and make a huge difference are things like lifting the throwing leg first and jumping a bit with the support leg, which means you are completely in the air for a moment, and uke is trying to support your full falling weight. Another one is to use your support leg in a sumi gaeshi-like fashion to pull uke forward until his head gets over yours. Tsunoda does both of these. And I think she puts the front leg up first because it is the one closest to uke, and she wants to get it in place before anything else, otherwise the opponent may squat and close the space and kill the attempt at the very beginning. It's like getting your foot in the door before they try to close it. Note that she places it more like a sumi gaeshi, and even when it is on the abdomen, it is still "shoelace" aka top of foot and not ball or bottom of foot first, and then she keeps lifting with both legs and pulling until she is ready to push with the bottom of her foot/feet. And she seems to like gripping the outside of the tricepses to better control the arms and prevent posting on the ground. About the osoto, I have heard a number of people say that the classic is hard to do, because it is hard to get to the initial position from which you swing and reap. You have to make too many moves before you make contact with the leg you are attacking, which gives uke more time to come up with a defense. So it is again about what you do first and what battle you win before the element of surprise is gone and uke knows what is coming. In this case, instead of stepping with the support leg next to uke's, you either step back (or next to your lead leg), or step sideways, and right away reach with your throwing leg to hook uke's leg. I have seen both versions taught: the one with the heel on the knee and hopping with the other leg, which they called ashi guruma, and the one with the step behind, which they do call osoto otoshi, but they do lift the leg at the end, perhaps to amplify the throw and to make sure uke doesn't step over it. Actually the end looks almost like ashi uchimata from behind. I guess you have a point that these are classical throws that are not the major ones we all learn first but somewhat more obscure, although modified, and Tsunoda's front tomoe is more successful than anybody's yoko tomoe. And Kayla Harrison was using a pure classical ogoshi rather than some modern split-hip deep-step. But Koga's seoi nage was not classical. So, I don't know if the majority of super successful variations are truly more classical and more "ancient" than average. I just think that modern judokas have found out what techniques with what modifications give them the highest success rate against other world-class judokas, and sometimes they are classic, but more often than not they are quite a bit modified.

[@joshuealvarez2023]

El Judo de hoy es menos completo que en antiguo Judo. Pero los Judokas de este tiempo son mucho más grandes y fuertes que los del pasado. Tanto en fuerza máxima, explosiva, isometrica y hasta en los desplazamientos. El Judo de antes no tiene comparación con el de hoy. El de hoy es más técnico y mucho más fuerte.

But nowadays judoka are way too athletics than the 1800's that can make huge differences.

[@kaim2437]

It's osoto otoshi (stomp) and osoto guruma (two legs or bechwards tai otoshi) not osoto gari

[@JD-ww2ri]

Once you reap is not otoshi.And guruma means "wheel",not both legs

[@ca1498]

I respectfully disagree. I have thought about it a lot, and I think if you step with you leg and lower or lean your body to start the throw, that is otoshi. After uke is past 45 degrees, if you lift his leg with your leg at the end, that should not qualify as reaping, because the leg is no longer weighted. It is a mixture of techniques, and that is why we all identify elements of different throws and want to use those throws' names for what he (and not just he but many others) is doing. And I have heard the knee hooking variation called 'ashi guruma', although my instructor said ashi guruma is on the ankle, not higher.

Isn't it paradoxical? The new should destroy the old, not the other way, because the new must have going through evolution to become better than the old. If it is the other way then it is a devolution. To think about it, us human devolved today, too dependent on tools and technology, too restrictive with a lot of laws and regulations. We're weaker than our ancestors.

[@jesselowe9374]

My guess is, it deals with the constant ruleset changes. And a lot of Judo will be taught with the sport ruleset, which would make the older Judo better. That's my guess.

[@MizanQistina]

@@jesselowe9374 But why? I can only compare with Silat, martial art I learned. we have TWO version, the traditional which is about 200 or more different styles/schools and ONE Silat Sport. Meaning, we all learned the old traditional ones BEFORE being able to join Silat Sport that have rules and stuff. Nobody just learn Silat Sport because the sport is not the martial art itself, it just a sport. The martial art is the traditional ones.

[@jjs3890]

I think there are few reasons for this. One is the rule set changes. We can even see this in BJJ where early BJJ had the ground and pound game going and was more closely related to judo ne-waza. Now BJJ has a lot of steps, no more ground and pound (some allow slapping I think) and you can climb up the standing opponent and choke them with no risk getting slammed. Very impractical for self defense purposes but olds BJJ is useful as long as you’re dealing with one opponent on flat stable ground. Judo seems to have the same progression under constantly changing rule sets but over a longer period of time. The other reason, imo, is the new way of learning generally breezes through the basics and gets into things without a solution d understanding of fundamentals. Instant reward but with less efficiency. The principle of “ju” seems to be getting lost and less understood.

[@jesselowe9374]

@@MizanQistina The only thing I know is, the ruleset of Judo keeps changing because of spectators. The Olympic committee wants to impress the spectators. Also, some submissions and throws are or considered too dangerous and are removed from sport Judo.

[@MizanQistina]

@@jesselowe9374 But why must the teaching change as according to sport ruleset? That is what I don't understand. Judo can be taught the very same thing since the old times, Judo fighters only need to adjust in some courses before competition. I think many martial arts are like this.
