after training with a couple of japanese judo boys these past few weeks all i have to say is that what i thought was good technique before coming here should be thrown out the window. of the small amount of throws i've been going over (ippon seoi nage, tai otoshi, o uchi gari) the way i do it now (or the way i'll have to get used to doing it) has completely changed.

p.s. i went for a left ippon seoi nage -> left o soto gari on one of the bigger stronger training partners and got a yuko (or maybe a koka :p). i was happy... but before and after that he must've scored about 10 or so ippon-scoring throws on me.

my gripping sucks, i can't break their more advantageous grips and hence no opportunities for throws.
