We got video footage of the new rules!

[@lb261benza-fu9wt]

ijf watch and learn

[@NoPhilters]

no more watered down IJF shido judo 😒 bring back the pure explosive raw form of judo!

[@raphaelhudson]

the most important things are the sode , ko uchi and kata guruma, how you can have a complete judo gokyo without Mifune's go to throw and a technique fundamental to Kano's story is beyond me.

[@---tx9xx]

Thank you and yes fingers crossed this will get to the IJF in this form as well

[@7Alberto7]

I hope Ijf will follow soon so much😍😍😍😍absolutly perfect,my heart is full of joy and nostalgia now,te guruma is back baby

[@matkobarbarich2971]

In 2025 they announce the rule change, so many people say that the ijf will not abilitate the leg grabs until 2026, but i hope the leg grabs will come in january of next year

[@gengotaku]

It’s gonna be nice to get back to the judo I used to practice when I was a child.

[@vbvb8780]

Finally. I hope the Ijf follows.

[@1Sacfi]

Not all we could wish for but a good start.

[@prvtthd401]

Nah I think this is just perfect to be honest.

[@johnsonwang368]

Make Judo Great Again

[@Yupppi]

I saw this pop up one morning in my feed and my reaction was "I don't understand anything in text but the red and white colors message enough and this feels like fantasy". I was actually watching the montage of lost techniques by Grappler Kingdom and drooling over kata gurumas, te gurumas and sodes with leg grab. Especially the front flip sodes or the cartwheel kata guruma looks so great. The only thing I don't like about this is the hands free attacks. I already didn't like scoring attacks where you let go of the grips before ippon. I personally think you should execute techniques from grips. I'm a believer that it does make slightly safer judo without suffering negative effects.

[@jerry_rules]

Somewhere Steve Scott is smiling. This is his freestyle judo rule set

[@taltezy2941]

So, if you attack a "single" leg from a gripping position and it lifts off the ground, it looks like you can attack the 2nd leg.

[@JudoHighlights2015]

Yeah. There was also no mention of only being allowed to counter with 1 hand. So if someone comes in with an Uchi mata, you can just double leg them on the return?

[@taltezy2941]

@JudoHighlights2015 I would say Yes. As the attacker leg is up attempting a throw (Uchi mata). Which makes them fair game for a double 🤔?

[@ca1498]

@@JudoHighlights2015 Didn't you say that the counter has to be also with one hand above belt?

[@JudoHighlights2015]

@ that’s my thought but it’s not in writing anywhere

[@JudoHighlights2015]

What they showed was only one hand counters

[@kusotare9559]

Whoever that uke is, he must be the Kodokan's designated punching bag. The poor guy is the uke in TONS of the Kodokan's nage waza videos!

[@JudoHighlights2015]

Yeah I met the guy once. Nice guy. Still very young so he can take it 😂

[@johnmcloughlin6234]

is it me or does Uke's chin to chest not seem to be too tight....Thanks for the video

[@smb264]

I think we’re going to see a lot of shidos in April hahaha

[@Tasjudoka]

If I recall correctly, this was about the same as ijf 2012 to 2016? Leg grab only as a second move in a combo or as a counter. I like this just fine. Had a great uchi mata to o uchi with an outer leg grab. Hope ijf follow suit here but doubt it as it’s too similar to their past rules

[@matkobarbarich2971]

No, this rules have no similarities to the 2010-2013 rules, the second move rule is only for double leg grab, but if you have a grip in the upper body you can grab one leg completely free😊

[@timelesswarriors]

If the IJF adopts this rule set I wonder how well the US will do in judo. The US has such a strong wrestling culture, I hope Team USA can incorporate wrestling leg takedowns to get an edge on the international scene.

[@dhimankalita1690]

Wrestling in a gi is different we already had ruleset with leg take downs m the us simply us nit good in judo. They need to invest more on judo training program in schools

[@kaeedou722]

When leg grabbing was still allowed USA was not exactly a shiny star in Judo, so pretty sure that would not change the game for them. If you want to be good at Judo do good Judo

[@TheNEOverse]

That's not how its going to work. You cannot just tack folkstyle leg attacks onto Judo and expect good things. A lot of leg grabs don't score because they don't satisfy the ippon conditions. If you hate the modern shido game, you will hate what leg grab judo can look like. Jacket wrestling has different needs. The O-uchi to ankle pick is something that will actually get results.

[@Hatsukoi839]

However speaking, Sambo will Russia will likely help Russian judoka , or have more players transition to judo.

[@TheNEOverse]

@@Hatsukoi839 You are aware that its often Judoka who often transition to Sambo because they couldn't quite succeed in elite Judo? And that they have zero issue dominating Sambo? Leg grabs are not enough to close that gap of competition.

[@kaeedou722]

At first sight it seems there are not grey areas of interpretation of the rules. That's likeable

[@quentin1286]

Problem with IJF is that they just rule to satisfy international Olympic committee.

[@rickfinsta2951]

LOL bro those of us who came up doing these things aren't *that* old; I'm only in my early 40s. It hurt a little to hear you say "pull out these techniques after all this time."

[@JudoHighlights2015]

Man we tried some things at my dojo the other week and it just wasn't smooth. I barely remember these things at all lol. PS you're an old man at 40 dude hahaha!

[@rickfinsta2951]

@@JudoHighlights2015 I may be old but I've got a wicked split-hip Marote Gari!

[@sonnyhoneyman7483]

Is this for ijf or just the kodokan

[@timelesswarriors]

Kodokan

[@64wy4x8s]

This is only for the 2024 All Japan Openweight tournament specifically. Not for any other competition under the Kodokan.

[@tartufo4870]

Dude this technique is very advantage in the street fight 😉👍💯%.

[@anklepick9524]

Any new rules about passivity or the half ass throwing attempts, just to try to escape?

[@JudoHighlights2015]

I think the IJF will mostly handle that. In Japan, those things aren't that big of an issue.

[@brianherskowitz]

Just to be clear, these are the new Kodkan rules and not the I.Jf rules correct?

[@JudoHighlights2015]

Yes. This is the Kodokan.

[@retroghidora6767]

Let's go

[@openeyes-b1f]

If I would be IJF, I would ignore these innovations by Japan Federation. Otherwise each Federation will start to make their own rules. If Japanese wish to jeopardize their performance at International level, it is up to them. Leg grads will jeopardize to make athletes to hunch over and being afraid of amplitude throws. There are many other real issues to be addressed, for example diving assessment

[@JudoHighlights2015]

In my other video I discussed the IJFs plans to bring back leg grabs. It’s coming.

[@Sam-ht4og]

Who’s the sensei? Keiji Suzuki?

[@johnis3774]

so if i go for a ko uchi or an o uchi with no hands and blast a double im good?

[@JudoHighlights2015]

apparently, but that seems so hard to do.

just allow all leg grab techniques already, why waste time with complicated rules like that ? Way to make the sport harder to understand for non-specialist spectators

yes. My right ACL has something to tell about such kind of ko uchi gari by direct experience

This will make judo unattractive and boring. Time will tell
