Can do.

I need to get back into Judo.

Just my 2 cents, but it seems a few sub-forums might work out extra well in the grappling forum.
I mean, how hard is it to make sub-forums, really? Can't be that difficult.
So you'd have like:
Judo
Sombo
Wrestling
Bjj

Something like that right?
Seems pretty easy really.
Q and I will Mod the Judo forum. Haha.

Thread makes more sense than subforum.

Now, knee wheels- only effective with the gi or potentially transferrable to nogi?

Hiza Guruma transferable to nogi on overhook side, or with Muay Thai Clinch, when you can spin your opponent, but difficult cause it's harder to get a little space to get your foot up effectively. Better used in nogi as a set up for opposite side osoto gari, harai goshi or Tai Otoshi.

Sasae Tsurikomi Ashi much more likely and useful for no gi, cause it can be performed with full body contact.

not many ppl do hiza guruma correctly, even with gi. doing it with no gi is pretty simply applied, but it's still a matter of understanding the throw.

Since there is alot of pull with that throw I find it slightly more difficult with someone's neck, and honestly the whizzer don't work for me. I use underhook instead. The key to hiza guruma is stepping out slightly (to the side) to allow that angle for your leg.

Hiza+osoto combination is one of my favourites.

Just started up judo a couple months ago (at the beginning of the semester) and I can say I really enjoy it. We just started randori and I enjoy getting slammed as much as the next guy. If you ain't getting slammed you aint learning.

Anyways theres a tournament coming up between the colleges in the area and if I get comfortable enough I i just might do it.
