It is with a gi, BUUTTTT.....


No gii is a different animal for us that have a Judo background, and without a gi, Osoto is VERY difficult to pull off and there are many other "safer bet" throws to count on. Plus, even if you can do it in no gi, most often it's pretty ugly. I was saying how impressive it is that Aoki can pull off beautiful osotos without a gi.
